Kirkland Signature and Member's Mark Without a Membership: What's Worth Buying in Bulk

Kirkland Signature and Member's Mark are the private-label brands of America's big warehouse clubs, known for their large sizes. At EazyPoint you can order many of their products with no membership and free shipping. But bigger doesn't always mean cheaper. Here's how to decide.

Work out the price per unit

Divide the price by the quantity (ounces, pounds, count or servings). Example with made-up numbers: if a 40 oz bag costs $26, that's about $0.65 per ounce; if a 16 oz bag costs $12, that's $0.75. The big bag wins, as long as you finish it before it goes stale.

Usually worth buying big

• Nuts and dried fruit, like Kirkland Signature praline pecans or dried plums. They keep well when sealed.
• Cooking oils, like Member's Mark organic virgin coconut oil.
• Nut butters, like Member's Mark almond butter.
• Pantry staples you use every week: chicken stock 6-packs, maple syrup, chili powder.

Better to skip in bulk

• Things you use only occasionally that may expire before you finish them.
• Spices you'll take a year to use up: they lose aroma.
• Products you haven't tried yet: start small if a smaller size exists.

How to store it

• Nuts: sealed and somewhere cool; in the fridge or freezer they last longer.
• Oils and nut butters: away from heat and direct light.
• Split large bags into airtight containers.
