We usually get paper products, frozen fruit, some fresh veggies/fruit (depending on what's available, lettuce and celery being staples), sandwich meats/cheeses, some cleaning products, and a few pantry items like cereal and chocolate chips from Costco, some toiletries/pharmaceuticals, along with a few other things where the bulk quantities won't spoil and are more cost-efficient than a regular grocery store. We also go to a bulk food store (Bulk Barn, which I believe is only in Canada) for spices, dried fruits, nuts, seeds, and a couple other dry goods. It would probably be more cost-efficient to get stuff like flour and sugar from one of those places instead of the regular grocery store, but I find that grocery store bags are a good size for our cupboards and I don't spend all that much on them in the long run anyway, so I'm fine with that bit of inefficiency.

Notably, I'd like to get meat from Costco, but we just don't have the freezer space for it, and there's no way we could go through it fast enough without freezing.
