A big pantry is important

bulk items from Costco When looking at Charleston real estate, make sure to find a home with a big pantry

I love Costco. I shop in bulk for items that make sense, things like paper towels, tissue paper, garbage bags, bottled water, food storage bags, aluminum foil and more. Actually the list can go on and on because when we leave Costco, we always seem to run our bill into the hundreds.

They have books at prices better than Barnes and Noble or Amazon; you can buy vitamins, shampoo, lotion and other personal care items and they sometimes have some nice clothes – don’t laugh, their polo shirts are great.

We shop at Whole Foods, Publix and Piggly Wiggly because each store has items that we prefer to buy there. We sometimes go to the Farmer’s Market for fresh produce. But if you love to save money and buy bulk, Costco is a great choice for many things.

So when you are looking at Charleston homes for sale, make sure to look at the pantry, if you’re like me, you’ll want to have a big pantry to hold everything you buy.

And don’t forget to splurge on a hot dog and diet coke for only $1.50 on your way out the door.
