3. More opportunities to save

Costco Business Center locations have Savings Events where you can buy Costco favorites and new items you may not have seen before. Just like Costco, there's no coupon clipping required – savings are applied at the register.

View Savings Event deals on the Costco Business Center website, or pick up a booklet at your nearest location. Savings may vary and have different valid dates

Pro-Tip: Make your shopping list early! Savings Event promotions can be previewed online two weeks before the event begins.

4. Stock up on single-serving snacks

Packing boxed lunches or hosting a family gathering is a great time to stock up on individual packages of chips, cookies and snack bars. If you're the designated snack buyer for an after-school event, picky eaters may have an easier time with single-serving snacks, such as crackers or mini chocolate chip cookies.
