If cost is not an issue, and you're trying to conserve time and personal
energy, then you should NOT get a Costco membership. Shopping at Costco is
energy-sapping and time-consuming. You'd be better off shopping at a
good-quality grocery store. (You'd be even better off having a personal
shopper or getting groceries delivered, but I'm guessing that money isn't
THAT much of a non-issue.)
