Eggs are a great price, Oreos, vitamins, bananas, gum, produce in general, and so on are on par or cheaper than anywhere else without searching/clipping for coupons or waiting for a deal.
Our Costco is closer than the closest Walmart. There are two other Costcos within driving distance. We usually go when the lines are short and stock up so we can go once a month. Walmart lines are always super long, and aisles are usually packed with people and their 5 kids that seem to always be in tow.
These things may not be your experience, so I understand that Costco is not something you want, but Costco does make sense for us, although Sam's Club would have likely worked if it was closer.
Here is what I like to buy at Costco due to quality and savings:
- Kirkland baby wipes
- Kirkland diapers
- Lance cracker packs
- organic milk (but pricing is starting to creep up)
- free range eggs
- Kirkland butter
- uncooked frozen shrimp
- organic frozen veggies
- spring salad mix
- rasberries / blueberries / blackberries
- bananas
- organic uncooked whole chicken
- Espoma organic Holly Tone fertilizer
- live outdoor plants in the spring (shrubs and trees are about 30-50% off of Home Depot pricing for the same sized products - eg a Leyland Cypress at 4-5ft tall is 16.99 at Costco but $35+ at HD)
- Kirkland bottled water
- $1.50 hot dog meal
There are probably tons of other things as well. We also pick up things that are the same price as the local safeway, but once you are there you may as well do all your shopping.

Well, not really...
For one, I can't find where they define 'eligible travel purchases' for the new citi card yet...so it's unclear if it covers all the same categories as CSP.
For another- this is 3% CASH back only.
Which is inferior to the value of the 2UR points CSP gives you for those same charges... because UR points are worth more than 1.5 cents when properly redeemed for travel. Now, if this card offered 3x ThankYou points it'd be a lot closer- but as 3%CB not so much.
For another- the CSP offers free primary car rental insurance- it's unclear (and unlikely) the Costco card will.
For another the CSP lets you transfer to travel partners- making your Freedom (and other no-annual-fee UR cards) vastly more useful/valuable.
For a last item- you have to wait up to a year to GET your cash back with the citi card (it comes as a single check you have to redeem at Costco once a year)
3% Eligible travel purchases such as Airline Tickets?

If you find better deals at Target for stuff you want, it sounds logical to shop there, but other people have plenty of logical reasons why they shop at Costco as well.
Also, if everything you buy at Costco breaks in 6-12 months, you're doing something wrong, but you do know they have a very generous return policy, right?
Kirkland is of higher quality than all of the other store brands I've had experience with. Also, their employees are higher quality. Costco is the gold standard in retail IMO.
Two examples are of items that get heavy use, yet don't have really long lifespans.
1. Roombas. Every dog owner's best friend. I'm on my fourth one.
2. Foodsaver. The vacuum thingie. It wears out.
