My suggestion is that you get the Costco membership early on because
you'll have less competition from other shoppers until the membership
builds up. I bought a membership to Sam's Club just so I could get some
tires. I hate to buy tires from Costco because they're so busy and you
have to wait so long.

I think that Costco has a better selection of stuff but the truth is
that I'd just go to whichever one is nearer or more convenient.
