Costco is not worth the membership fee, local supermarkets are cheaper
Very false for me! Like, extremely false.
For example, I have a freezer chest that I keep stocked with steaks and chicken, bacon, fish, ground beef, berries, etc. I'm 100% positive I have saved at least $500 filling that by buying my bulk at Costco. Additionally, I worry about inflation less because I get 10 steaks at a time, for example.

WRONG! Gas is literally $0.60 cheaper at Costco compared to other places around me. 5% cash back on gas and 4% on everything else with the Costco Visa and Executive Membership. Contact lenses are hundreds of dollars cheaper for a yearly supply. Costco sells more than groceries, ya know?

Costco is across the street from Walmart gas here, always same price.
I also don't like Costco and choose not to pay a fee to shop in a crowded warehouse and fight over parking.
Winco and other grocers easily match/beat prices... and I don't get stuck with three months supply of things.
But, I get it... Costco is a cult.. People will defend it like a family member. No shame in that, just not my thing,

You're comparing Costco top tire gas against shitty Walmart gas... Lol

What membership fee? I have executive membership and they end up giving me a rebate that is more than the membership fee. So effectively they are paying me to shop there.
