August is the month when many kids go back to school, including college students. Moving into a dorm can mean big changes and big expenses. Parents preparing to send their child to college often spend a significant amount to ensure they are happy and comfortable in their home away from home. Of course, they also want to save as much money as they can, so shopping at a warehouse club like Costco can be a lifesaver. With everything from groceries to laundry detergent, to must-haves like mini fridges and fans, and gas to fuel the moving truck, Costco has it all. And they have some big news. Costco is expanding and opening new stores in August, just in time for the back-to-school season.
