The TikToker @m_a_r_i_l_e_y recently unveiled her strategy for purchasing garlic in bulk at an affordable price from Sam's Club, highlighting this as one of her main reasons for having a club membership. "Garlic is super expensive," she remarks while presenting the product. She contrasts these prices with those at Publix, where a package weighing less than a pound costs five dollars, whereas at Sam's, she can acquire a hefty three-pound package for $9.98.
Beyond the bargain, she emphasizes the product's freshness and suggests a tip for selecting the best: "Always pick from the back like I do; they're the freshest." According to her, this garlic from Sam’s lasts "forever" and boasts a taste reminiscent of freshly peeled "Cuban garlic."
Mixed Reactions from Followers
Her post sparked a variety of responses among her audience. Followers like @yaritzanavarroden echoed her sentiments, stating they also find the garlic "super good and long-lasting." However, others have encountered issues with the product. One follower mentioned that although she found Sam's garlic to be of good quality, it developed mold, forcing her to discard half the package: "It was painful because they're really good." Similar concerns were voiced by users like @yana, who noted the garlic "spoils quickly," and @paublinaramirez04, who cautioned: "It all went bad, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone."
Standing by Her Recommendation
Despite the differing opinions, @m_a_r_i_l_e_y stands by her endorsement, concluding her video by showcasing the garlic at home, ready to use without the hassle of peeling, and most importantly, "cheap" compared to other places.
