THERE'S ONLY ONE place where you can shop for everything from a 20-pack of Dial soap to high-end stereo equipment: warehouse clubs. Not only is the selection vast, but if you take the time to stroll through the warehouse's cavernous aisles, you can unearth some amazing deals.

Think of it this way: While supermarket prices are often 22% to 27% higher than wholesale prices, there's only an 8% to 15% markup at warehouse clubs, according to Warehouse Club Focus, a trade publication.

And you don't need to be in the market for a four-pound jar of peanut butter to save, either. In some cases, you don't even need to pay the membership fee.

Here are five of the best buys you can dig up at a warehouse club.
