Costco really only makes sense with a family or group. Buying in bulk isn't necessarily better for a single person, especially given that any impulse buys are more expensive at Costco
You can coordinate splits with Costco members.
But beware, Aldi's Greek yogurt (for example) is actually cheaper than Costco's, $/oz (at least when I last compared). Costco is not always cheaper; if you really wanna save, you have to do the math relative to what local stores are available.
That makes sense
If it is freezable, it is fine (rotisserie chicken, for example).
I also make them into preservable forms, like I made little jar of scallion oil from a giant bag of scallion and they last years in the fridge. Ginger and garlic works as well.
You can also cook produces and store in the fridge, they will last longer, although not forever. For example, mushrooms, cabbage, etc.
