Many people often considering shopping at wholesale clubs, such as Costco or Sam's club and for many people it is a great money saving idea. But there are a few things that you will need to really consider before enrolling at either club or a club of similar nature.
First, do you have a friend that is enrolled? Although technically you need a carded member to enter these stores, they are allowed to bring someone in with them. If you want to cut back on membership fees, or do not see yourself shopping their regularly, just accompany your friend on the occasions you need to go to the wholesale store, and pay your friend back immediately back after the trip. For the occasional shopper this is the perfect alternative to paying the fee. You could also split the cost of the membership with your friend to save you both money and this will allow you to be an actual member.

In some cases it is worth it to own your own membership. If you have a large family that is going to consume large amounts of food in small amounts of time then you will get more than your money's worth by shopping wholesale. The prices at wholesale are going to be a lot more than the grocery store, but per unit of food you are saving drastically than if you had bought the same amount of food at the grocery store. However, if you are shopping for just yourself or you and your spouse, you are unlikely to be able to get through large amounts of food at a time, and it is either going to go to waste, or sit around because you both know if you have spaghetti one more night somebody may just get physically violent towards the cook. If you waste the food, you have saved nothing, and most likely actually spent more money than you would have if you had just gone to a normal grocery store.
You also need to consider what types of food you enjoy. If you and your family are not very picky eaters or gourmet cooks, than wholesale clubs should work out just fine for you as they tend to offer more general foods and popular foods. However, if you stick to specialty diets, a wholesale club is never going to be worth its membership fees for two reasons: One, you are never going to be able to find half the foods you want inside an actual wholesale store. Two, since you are into specialty eating you probably do not repeat the same dinner menus often. Therefore, buying large amounts of the food items you can use for your picky eaters is not going to help you too much, unless your plan is to try and alter your families eating patterns.
Wholesale shopping can be a great way to solve money on groceries, but only if you have enough mouths to finish the food and if you are okay with more basic diets.
