I've seen the emergency packs in our store.

What did I put in my shopping cart today? Pita bread, blueberries, eggs, milk, steak, bananas, spinach, pears (from South Africa - they are yummy), greek yogurt, raspberries, minor office supplies, vitamin D. D picked up her 2 pairs of hard contacts and really, really cute glasses, frame by Chloe.

I just tried something amazing so had to go back and find this thread. It's called Yakisoba and is in the frozen foods section. It's a box of single servings of Japanese fried noodles with crispy vegetables in a sauce. You microwave it for 3 minutes.

Twice in the past couple of months I got notices of a manufacturer's recall from Costco. One was smoked salmon (and it was after the Jewish holidays where every Jew in the world was scarfing down lox for break-the-fast on Yom Kippur) and the other was for a giant box of those round peanut and jelly sandwiches in the frozen food section. Both times I had a tiny bit leftover and so had ingested almost all of it with no consequences and got a full refund. Is it wrong to think that that was a great deal? |

No.  I took the half-eaten jar of PB to Costco for a refund, too. BTW, they decided to err on the side of caution and issue those recalls even though none of the recalled products tested positive for the bugs. Kudos to Costco!
Finally! Fresh chanterelles have arrived at my Costco!!! I'm happy.

Has anyone tried the brownie brittle? It comes in a pouch type container. It seems to be brownie batter spread out thin and baked with chocolate chips sprinkled on top. If you like the edges and corners of brownies you will like it. It didn't last long at our house!

I'll have to look for the Brownie Brittle tomorrow. D2 & I are going to pick up the largest fresh turkey in the case (for some reason my size 00 picky eater is adamant about picking out the biggest turkey ever each year, even though there's only 7 of us for dinner!) Also will be picking up a bag of fresh brussel sprouts, and some fresh mozzarella.
I *may* go to Costco on Friday as there are a few things in the Black Friday flier that I need to pick up anyway. And I love the cookbooks they give away that day |

I saw the brownie brittle and was curious. Toledo, those noodles sound interesting! How many single servings in the box?
I bought the pre-cubed butternut squash yesterday in the fresh produce - had it a few times last year. You have to be a little careful cause it doesn't always last real long, but put baked some tonight with butter, a little brown sugar and a last minute sprinkle of sea salt - I could have eaten that alone for dinner - yum!

OMG- found the brownie brittle this past summer. That is some dangerously yummy stuff. For better or for worse, they had some different brittle last time I was there (toffee crunch, I think) and fortunately it didnt interest me.

I love Costco! A couple of weeks ago I purchased a new Sunbeam electric lap blanket to replace one I bought 2-3 years that just stopped working. On my way out of the store, I stopped by customer service and mentioned I was disappointed that I had to buy a new blanket. She told me to bring back the old one and they would look up my purchase. The next week, I brought in the blanket and, after a few minutes on the computer, they handed me a $30 cash refund!
I just saw the blanket for $6 off, so I'm going to bring in my new receipt to get credited.

After years belonging to BJs, we just joined Costco. (It's closer to our new house.) I've had a lot of experience with BJs so I'm curious to see how Costco compares. Their bakery products look wonderful, but I was disappointed that they didn't have the two kinds of Iams dog food that our dogs eat.

I really like Costco better than BJs. However, the nearest Costco is 45 minutes away and BJs is five.
I went with a friend to Costco and that's where I got my new $500 Hansgroh kitchen faucet for $200. I had been researching faucets and was thrilled to find exactly what I wanted there.
