Hello and greetings, my friends—this month I’m sharing our February 2026 Costco grocery haul for our family of 5, and I spent $479.52 (which is honestly cheaper than normal… what’s going on here lol!). I’m doing my usual big monthly shop so we can cook at home, eat well, and avoid constant grocery trips, and I grabbed a mix of proteins, produce, freezer staples, and lunchbox items. I also picked up a couple of things you guys tipped me off about being on sale (thank you!), because I don’t get the little Costco coupon booklet in the mail and I really wish I did. In this haul I’m stocking up on smoothie basics like frozen blueberries, easy sides like broccoli and Brussels sprouts, and all the stuff my kids fly through—Caesar salad kits, sliced cheddar, bagels for the freezer, and my favorite herb roasted turkey for quick wraps and lunchboxes. I also share a few real-life notes like how I keep broccoli fresher longer (paper towels in the bag), my go-to avocado toast lunch on sourdough, and the all-purpose cleaner I’ve been making for basically 20 years with vinegar, water, Dawn, and essential oils. And yes—I’m still on the hunt for Costco sauerkraut (where did it go?!), plus I grabbed a Korean skincare ampoule I’m excited to try for that “glass skin” look. If you’ve got refrigerated sauerkraut recommendations or Korean skincare favorites, I definitely want to hear them.
