Aaahhhh, finally feeling back to normal… Thank you for all your well wishes Costco East family!
Yes, it seemed like this silly little cold was lingering longer than the last table at the restaurant, but I think it’s finally gone now. However, I think now someone else in the household is catching it, Uh-oh! Well I hope you all haven’t caught anything yet! However if you have, or are feeling like some kind of cold or flu is about to rear its ugly head, now is as an ideal time as any as Costco has (as they tend to during cold/flu season) Nyquil and Dayquil, as well as vitamin C + zinc supplements on sale so you can bolster your immune defenses and prepare for the worst… Stupid colds…
Let’s take a look at a few sale previews, shall we??? Then it’s dinner time!
Usually out of convenience we’ll do a pizza night here, if we’re too busy with work and don’t feel like making a big production out of dinner (cooking and cleaning) we’ll throw a few pizzas in the oven and make a big salad of some kind. (which is what we did tonight!) So in anticipating that tonight would be one of those nights I grabbed the Stromboli pizzas (which are delicious, by the way) It’s just nice sometimes to not have to do a bunch of prep, then a bunch of cooking and then a bunch of cleaning… Don’t get me wrong I love cooking, you all know (or must know by now) that I love cooking and spending time in the kitchen with all the fun toys that I have in there, but once in a while it’s nice to just have a low impact night… Almost like getting take-out!
I did not go that route yesterday at all. I made full use of all the new pots and pans at Breakfast and dinner! I decided that I’d do a classic kind of breakfast on Sunday morning with Scrambled eggs, sausages, hash brown, baked beans and toast.
…And then take a nap! (well I should have, but decided I’d clean the house instead)
I decided I wanted some kind of spicy chicken for dinner and hadn’t done Jerk chicken since the summer so… Jerk chicken it was!
And Jerk Chicken calls for rice and beans obviously, which I added some saffron to to give it a little extra aromatic flavor to help cut through the spice of the Jerk marinade. And what good chicken & rice dish doesn’t have some kind brightly colored accompaniment?
Some quickly sauteed red & yellow peppers with green beans and red onions did the trick quite nicely (I added some garlic powder and ground cloves to those as well which was another nice little flavor boost! Clove, allspice and nutmeg… secret weapons of the spice world!) Needless to say Costco friends, I love the new set of pots and pans! I’m pretty sure they have all been used (except the steamer, but this week we’ll use it. Maybe some sickness fighting broccoli???) and they have all filled in admirably and surpassed their retired counterparts. Though that was a tough one, but just like clearing out the closet- sometimes you just gotta rip the band-aid off!
…So yes, Sunday was mostly cooking, cleaning and eating with some painting as well… and some filling of nail holes in trim, and laundry and some hockey as well. Ewok was happy to help stall that effort of course.
I can’t say that I blame him, he’s a cat after all and a basket of freshly dried & folded laundry is a cat magnet. I guess I should have expected that… Dexter meanwhile was preventing me from washing the bedding.
It’s almost as though they got together and said
Dexter – “hey, how can we put the brakes on all this laundry stuff?”
Ewok – “Oh I know, you spend all day cleaning yourself on the bed and then sleep and look cute, and I’ll wait till the whites are all done and folded and climb on top and sleep on the warm clean stuff!”
Dexter – “excellent plan, let’s do it!”
Though I doubt Ewok would have been the mastermind here, more likely Dexter was calling the shots… Or perhaps I have too much time on my hands???
Ahem… On that note I think I shall bid you all a good evening. As per usual work awaits tomorrow morning, and like the rest of my Southeastern Ontario dwelling friends a great big snow storm is headed our way as well!
Take care friends, drive safe and eat well. And don’t get sick, that’s an order!
Till next week.
Please note:
The price at your local Costco takes precedent (or precedence) over the prices listed on this blog.
Costco liquidation/Manager’s Special items (ending in .97) vary from store to store.
An asterisk (*) on the price tag means the item is not being re-ordered.
If there is something you really want, ***double check the expiry date*** as some Costco sales items do end mid-week.
***This is a fan run, independent page with no affiliation or endorsement by Costco Wholesale***
The food brands available can differ from region to region. Pictures are taken at a store in Ontario. Sale items should apply to Costco locations in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, Newfoundland & Nova Scotia, if the item is in stock at your store. There will likely be a few deals not shown here in your store. If this blog has helped you save money, consider sharing www.cocoeast.ca with your friends and family! If you see deals at your store that aren’t on this blog, post them in the comments and help spread the money saving love!
Hello, glad you are feeling better! Your cooking looks so yummy!
So many delicious goodies on sale. I sure won’t be going out tomorrow though. Big snow and freezing rain storm coming.
Thank you so very much for all your hard work and interesting blog, we all appreciate what you do!!!!
You are the definition of every positive adjective that one can come across in a dictionary. Amazing, awesome, superb, epic, etc… You get the drift here… Lol!
Just know that your hardwork is always appreciated in ways you can only fathom. I, along with many others, are undoubtedly great fans of your work and I look forward to your newsletter in my box all the time now.
This cold that’s going around is awful! It just seems to hang on forever! 🙁 Hope this is the end of it for you!
Ewok and Dexter seem to have the right idea—my kind of cats. Haha
Thanks for all that you do! Love the food pics too—makes me hungry haha!
🙂
I know Carla, it’s brutal!!! A few of the people I work with have had it for several weeks and it still has lingering symptoms… Thankfully mine are just a little tiny bit of congestion and not flu-like stuff… blech! No thank you!!! Yes Dexter and Ewok are good little guys, and have it right for sure (except the 4:30 a.m. game time… not a good time for games!) I’m glad you enjoy yhte blog, and the food! I hope to bring more of my food/cooking around this year.
Wow.. I can almost smell your aromatic dishes from my IPad! Happy to hear you are feeling better. We are in the midst of a huge snow storm. Thanks for taking the time and your great posts which I look forward to reading every week. Stay blessed!
Thank you Twinkle, yes the smells were delicious! We have a crazy storm happening now as well, so I hope you stay safe and warm and make some delicious food of your own (feel free to share recipes and pictures here as well!)
Hi Marilyn, sorry to hear those sales aren’t happening at your local Costco. If you take a look at the F.A.Q. on the website it will answer questions like that.
Q. I saw an item for sale on your page, but it is not on sale in my local store? Why is that?
A. While most sale items are consistent throughout Eastern Canada, some sale items will vary by store. Your local Costco’s price will always take precedent over the prices posted on this website. Also, any items on the blog that end in ‘.97’ means the item is on a manager’s clearance. These ‘.97’ items are store dependent. If you are interested in one of these products you can check with customer service or phone ahead with the item number to see if any of the items is available at a nearby warehouse!
Happy to hear ur feelin’ better…. being sick sure ain’t no fun! So today I didn’t even get outta my jammies ’til noon. It’s sooooo nice not to have any commitments. But I must get to the big C this week since I didn’t get around to it last week…. gotta get those Bose speakers…. heckuva deal!
Hey Jan, ya no commitments must be nice, I’m sure it’s well deserved! In regards to Bose, everything they make it seems is just amazing, if I didn’t already have a Bose speaker and headphones I’d be in line for 2 of those babies… They just sound so good!
I have been receiving your emails every week and did not get it this week and found it when I entered it in Facebook. Thank you. I live on the south shore of Montreal and many of your specials are in my COSTCO and when not, they often appear the next week. Please ensure that I am back on your list.
Hello Maxine, thank you for pointing this out. I’ve had a few other people mention this as well and we do think its just a glitch. Thank you for reading and for your support! Everything should be ok next week, but if you don’t receive an email again let me know and I’ll dig a little bit deeper into this.
Great post and pictures and ideas for dinner. Makes me very hungry. Plus the sales of course. Glad you are feeling better and also enjoying your new pots and pans!
Thanks a bunch.
Hi, thank you for posting weekly, unfortunately I haven’t received your emails for the last two weeks. I checked my junk folder and there is nothing. Hopefully there is just some weird glitch.
Hi there! As an avid follower (and never a commenter) I am just wondering if by chance there is an easy way to search your blog for previous sales. Mostly Huggies Diapers 😉 Wondering when the last few sales were for them so I can figure out (guess) when the next sale will be…. Thanks so much, Desperate mom of 2 in diapers
Hi Sheena! Thank you very much for being an avid reader and now a first time commenter! You can look through the archives for previous sales on the homepage of cocoeast.ca yes, though there isn’t a way to search for specific items… What I can say is that Costco does tend to put things on sale at specific times of year and I’m guessing that Diapers will be on sale next week, just a guess as they were on sale that time last year as well. So, fingers crossed!
Hmmm. Must be a glitch. I only just received this Costco posting today, Friday (Jan 16) whereas I would normally get it on Tues. Since Costco is closed on Monday 18th (Family Day) that leaves today & tomorrow (of a busy weekend) to get any of the Feb 11 – 18 sale items ☹️.
Anyway…love receiving your cat pics, oh and of course the Costco sale items! ? ? Thanks for your hard work getting these out to us. Much appreciated.
Hello Mirk! Yes, unfortunately there was a glitch and most people didn’t receive the email notification earlier this week. Rest assured though if you go to cocoeast.ca on Tuesday mornings (or late Monday night) the new post will be up!) Thank you so much for reading and supporting, and of course for enjoying the kitties! Ewok and Dexter are funny little guys (though both very excited for springtime) The post for this week will be up late Tuesday night this week due to the family day holiday. Cheers!
My wife and I are originally from Alberta and are out in Mississauga for a few months. One difference we’ve noticed is that the Costco we go to in Mississauga doesn’t carry Coke Zero. Are there any Costco’s around Mississauga that carry Coke Zero or is this an Ontario-wide thing?
Hi Sue, I’m not sure… Have asked an employee? they’re usually quite knowledgeable. I’m sure there’s other folks out there who would like to know as well!
Hello, glad you are feeling better! Your cooking looks so yummy!
So many delicious goodies on sale. I sure won’t be going out tomorrow though. Big snow and freezing rain storm coming.

Take care and stay warm and safe everyone. 🙂

Oh we’re loving the new pots! And yes, dinner was delicious as were the leftovers!

Hi Cathy, thank you for pointing this out. I’ve had a few other people mention this as well and we do think its just a glitch.
You mentioned jerk chicken that you made in the summer. Well costco.ca is also having memories of summer–> they are advertising plants for pre order!

Ahhh Costco, gotta love them getting a jump on summer items already! I will say it is pretty exciting!

Hello Nathan! Thank you for reading and supporting! I havn’t seen Coke zero in the Kingston, or the Barrie ON. warehouses… Just Diet Coke/Pepsi.
Does anyone out there know why Costco does not sell the Kirkland mens jeans anymore? The only great priced jeans that would fit my 6’6″ tall husband.
Hi Sue, I’m not sure… Have asked an employee? they’re usually quite knowledgeable. I’m sure there’s other folks out there who would like to know as well!
