Gen Z’s oldest members are now well into their adult years, and they’ve developed some strong opinions on their preferred money-saving stores. Recently, GoBankingRates surveyed 1,023 Americans over 18 and found that Gen Z favors Costco more than any other generation.

Gen X, Boomers and even most Millenials reported that Walmart provided the best value in 2024. In comparison, one in five Gen Z’ers stopped shopping at Walmart because it was too expensive for them.

Additionally, 20% of the newly-minted Costco loyalists also ranked the warehouse store as having one of the best rewards programs for savings this year while another 18% said that Costco lowered its prices the most to combat inflation. 

When you see these deals, you won’t have to guess why Gen Z chooses Costco over other value stores.

Whether you’re tailgating, or taking your kids to soccer practice, you might need a way to keep drinks and snacks cold. That’s when the Titan Deep Freeze Rolling Cooler comes in handy.

BYREDO Black Saffron Eau de Parfum

• Price: 3.4 fl oz, $196.99

Most people don’t think of Costco when they want to buy their signature fragrance, but you may want to go with Costco the next time you want to smell like a million bucks.

At Costco, you can save over $45 on popular perfumes like Byredo’s Black Saffron or Mojave Ghost. This usually retails for $225 on the Byredo website or at places like Neiman Marcus. At Costco, you’ll pay just $196.99.
