COSTCO is arguably the most famous wholesale store open to the public.

But one family have discovered that there's another wholesale shop out there that could be even better – as they saved a whopping £435 on their shop.

Katie, Bob and JoJo were stranded at Alton Towers when their van broke down, and had to hire a car to get themselves home.

"While we were on our way home, we thought we'd see if there was anywhere we could do a fun shopping challenge," they said in a video on their YouTube page.

"Because shopping challenges always make us happy.

"As some of you know, we love Rogers, we've been to Rogers before but we've only been to the one in Southampton.

"So Rogers actually sells the stuff that other stores can no longer sell – usually because the products are being discontinued, or they're changing the packaging on them, or they're rebranding.

"Sometimes it might be their seasonal products, or because they are past their sell by dates, not their use by dates. And sometimes you get free things.

"We've had so much for free from here before.

"Everything we've bought from a Rogers has been good quality, and a lot of the stuff has been in date as well."

Once they got to the store, and stepped inside, they quickly realised it was a LOT bigger than the Southampton one.

And they soon got stuck into the bargain hunting too, spotting a whole case of J20 fizzy drinks for just £5.

There were also cases of 24 cans of Coke for just £4, and boxes of Butterkist sweet chilli popcorn crisps for £3 for 10 packs.

Katie was beside herself when she spotted bars of organic vegan chocolate for £4 a box, as well as boxes of Booja Booja chocolates for £3 for 2 boxes.

"Are you absolutely kidding me?!" she exclaimed, as she realised that there were four packs in each box.

Other items on offer included barbecue Quavers – 15 packs for £6 – and Skittles Squishy Clouds – 14 bags for £5.

There was also a good selection of vegan options in the store too, with Katie spotting Heinz vegan baconnaise for £3 for a case of six and Vegan Aioli for £1.50 for the case – making them just 18p a jar.

Katie also picked up a pack of six tins of tinned cherry tomatoes for just £3, as she said that they are "so sweet".

"I'm so glad we went there," she exclaimed, before they had to figure out how to get everything into their hire car.

Once they were home, they spread out their entire haul before working out what they'd spent.

In total, they forked out £73.50.

But if the products had been bought at full RRP, it would have cost them £509.10.

"I can't believe if we'd have bought all of this stuff at a regular supermarket we would have spent over £500," Katie said.

So in total, they saved an incredible £435.60.

"When I worked in a supermarket the amount of vegan chocolate that went to landfill was unbelievable," one person commented on the video.

"It just doesn’t sell so I can see why there was so much there."

"Such a great place to also go to and buy packs off and to donate to the food banks for people struggling," another added.

"Wow what an awesome store, the deals are amazing and unlike any I have seen," a third admitted.

"I would have definitely not passed up on that deal for the chocolates!"
