We did just buy our first box of size 1 Pampers Swaddlers in anticipation of our LO this Fall and it was under $40 for a box of I think 186. The gas is nice, too. I would like to go to Costco, but it's like 45 minutes away at least! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-shop-at-sams-club-what-do-you-buy-there#post-1642784 Sun, 18 May 2014 12:09:51 +0000 MrsH 1642784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bao: I find it ranges from five to thirty cents a gallon.

Mostly at this point though gas. We keep toying with dropping the membership but wind up finding it easier to stock up on a few items. We can't go through the fruit and veggies fast enough and avoid most of the processed stuff so it cuts out a lot of stuff for us. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-shop-at-sams-club-what-do-you-buy-there#post-1636623 Thu, 15 May 2014 13:10:44 +0000 Boheme 1636623@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This is random, but Sam's has my favorite salsa ever!
