Log in Costco sells a lot of brand-name goods at a lower unit price than typical retailers charge. But the warehouse chain's Kirkland Signature brand is where the cost savings can really add up. We compared shopping carts filled exclusively with Kirkland products against national brands to find out. When it comes to cutting costs on everyday items, buying in bulk and buying store brands are both big ways to save. Buying store brands in bulk? That's like a cheat code to maximizing savings. I recently found in a price analysis that shopping at Costco was generally cheaper on a unit-cost basis than buying the same products from a traditional retailer. Depending on the item and how often it's purchased, the savings could even offset the $65 annual membership fee. Many Costco members find the chain's own Kirkland Signature brand is the real ticket
