12 Ways to Save as a Military Family at Costco
12 Ways to Save as a Military Family at Costco
Whether you're looking to buy groceries online or save time cooking, a Costco membership can be a good place to start.
Here's a few ways to save at Costco:
Military care packages
When a loved one gets deployed, sometimes the best you can do is support them with small reminders of home. Military care packages are the way to go. Pack up their favorite treats and must-have essentials. Costco is known for our snack collection – from protein bars to jelly beans. And let's face it, they may need more cotton socks, disposable razors or a new magazine, too.
Personalized gifts and cards
Phone calls and video chats aren't always possible when you're far from family and friends. Costco Photo Center's website is a great way to design your own cards, gifts and print photos at a low cost. Stuff them into your military care package – or send them every week with positive messages or life updates.
Moving truck rentals for Costco members
A Permanent Change of Station (PCS) move is a great opportunity to decide what stays and what goes. If you opt for a Do-It-Yourself Move (DITY), you control everything, and potentially get reimbursed for it by the military. To maximize your savings Costco members have access to moving truck rentals in certain regions. Just schedule your pickup date and start packing!
Grocery delivery service
Living off base gives you access to an even larger community. But with off-base perks, comes commuting. Use CostcoGrocery to save time. Our online grocery service delivers your staples, so you don't have to leave your house.
Meals made easy
Pick up premade meals at the Costco deli. Choose from a variety of ready-to-heat options, such as a street taco kit, enchiladas, mac and cheese, and more.
