HELLO ALL I WILL BE THERE STARTING 10/14 FOR THREE WEEKS AND I AM WONDERING WHERE IS THE BEST PLACE TO DO GROCERY SHOPPING? COSCO.SAMS OR GROCERY STORE.
THANKS "

To answer your question directly, as user T. Ho suggested:

Mega Soriana, Bodega Aurrera, and Sam's Club.
All 3 "big box" stores are in close proximity to one another, so it is very convenient.

Though to the contrary to what was mentioned about Sam's Club:
Although YES, in general, many items at Sam's Club are "sold in large quantities",
and YES, sizes are larger than for the same item found in the supermarket, (you won't find a litro of milk or juice),
there are many that are in more manageable useful quantities that aren't excessive. So, I wouldn't let that detract you.

One excellent local store that was NOT mentioned,
that I find often has great pricing, as well as sales that beat the competition,
is MERZA PAK.
There are 2 in town:
one on la calle Cocos, and the other on la calle Ejido, across the street from INBURSA bank.

Of course for fresh fruits and vegetable, the streets being the "Mercado Central", are loaded with shops that sell those at good prices, usually lower than the big box stores.
