Sometimes you need 1 item, like a chicken for dinner or ribs to grill. Pro tip, don’t take a cart. Go in, get your two/three things and walk out for under $40.
People give me weird looks when I grab a recycled box as soon as I walk in and proceed to carry it around the store. But I consistently only need about four items (or rather, there's a ton of other stuff I sometimes get there, but there are only four items that I need urgently--coffee bring one of them).
I could use a cart, but having a cart makes navigating around the warehouse 10x slower. If I'm just carrying stuff under my arm or in box, I can walk quickly, I can walk around people, and I can get the the self-checkout aisle and GTFO of the store without taking an hour...
My wife and I always go in with a list of exactly what we need and stick to it. If you give into the impulse buys it kills any savings you would get from shopping there.
