There are four Costco warehouses in your general area. Maryland has
one in Beltsville:

They have many good values in wine. They also have many other great
values in clothing, electronics, and gasoline, so you don't have to buy
a two gallon jar of mayonaise to justify your membership.

Are you looking, exactly, for sparkling white wine vinted and bottled
in the Champagne region of France, or are you looking for any sparkling
wine? If the second, then you're looking for any of the following:
Sparkling wine, Champagne, Cava, and Spumante. There might be other
terms too.

If you can, take your wife out this weekend to a champagne bar such as
this

or this:

Or find a well regarded wine shop.

You shouldn't have any trouble finding a good sparkling wine in your
price range. You might even be able to find a couple - a dryer one and
a sweeter one, maybe a pink or rose.

Good luck and congratulations.
