Hello, hello, hello! Just back from another glorious Costco treasure hunt, it was a good time! I was in a great mood today (not that I’m not usually) but for some reason I just felt good and ready to shop… So I did! (obviously) Maybe it’s the fall weather feeling like it’s in full effect? Or perhaps the full 2 days I actually had off from work rejuvenated me somewhat? Perhaps it’s knowing that Hockey starts on Wednesday and I’ll actually be home to watch the game?  Or maybe it’s the fact that so many of you had my back when the grammar police arrived?

(which I appreciate by the way, but really it’s not a big deal folks. I’ve adjusted accordingly… Tongue-in-cheek of course though! Oh and the Sandlot is an awesome movie, I love it! It’s like a milder version of Stand By Me which is another super favorite!)

So whatever it was I don’t know, maybe a combination of all of those things just put me in a great space today.

There were some great sales going on this week, and some great clearance items too which I dove into. This Cuisinart spiralizer thing was one of them.

Now, you all know about my love for cooking (I’m sure that has been beaten to death but hey, you all haven’t bailed on me yet!) And I’ve seen this before and turned my nose up at it, but walking by today (with my elevated mood) the price seemed just too low to not snag it! Maybe it was all the careful slicing of the potatoes for the gratin I made last night that made me think hmmmm… maybe this little device would save a bit of time for me? So I guess we shall find out in the coming weeks. (I’ll try and post any creations if any meet my standards) Though I don’t want my knife skills to diminish at all so I won’t use it too frequently, just when I need some real thin slices or to try out some fine julienne veggies.

Another interesting pick-up today were these little dudes.

Whoops! Wrong little dudes, but aren’t they cute?….Moving on. These are the things I was talking about!

I think you mostly know that as much as I love technology, and computers and the internet I’ve been a bit stand-offish about the whole house wi-fi connection thing. I think the thought of someone possibly being able to hack into a house grid (or whatever it is) and turn things on and off, adjust heat etc. is just too much to think about (and I will have nothing to do with Google home randomly turning on and laughing at me or recording our conversations… or the sound of me furiously typing this blog!) However… I thought “well… why not give these little things a try for a bit. I can plug in Halloween decorations and turn them on before I get home, and do the same with the Christmas tree. Just a a little warm welcome home” They seemed not threatening enough and not too expensive so I decided to give them a shot. Haven’t tried them yet but I’ll let you know how they do.

Topic change. I don’t smoke anymore, I used to but I quit maybe 5 years ago??? maybe 6??? I bring that up because Nicorette gum and vaporizers are on sale for a whopping $15 off so if you are a smoker and looking to kick the habit this is a fantastic sale! (and one you should fully take advantage of!) My partner used nicorette gum to help stop, and I could see how it worked and helped. For me it was a matter of cutting back to a point that I didn’t crave them in certain situations. No smoking at work was the start, then no smoking in my car was another big one. Then it was no smoking during the day. Eventually I’d have a run of days where I wouldn’t smoke at all because of those rules and one day I just stopped altogether. That being said it is a very difficult habit to kick and if this gum helps you out then go for it! (and stock up while it’s on sale!)

 

Ok back to it.

Coke, Diet Coke and ginger ale were all on sale (rhyme!) for 8.45, while Pepsi and Diet Pepsi were on sale for 8.47. So If you were ever looking to save 2 cents on 32 cans of Coke over 32 cans of Pepsi- Now is the time!

Children’s Complete Tylenol 3 x 100ml is also on sale for 11.99 (3 dollars off) so if you like to stay ahead of the curve for cold and flu season for the kids now is your chance… Even though I don’t have kids I know that they get sick ALL the time so do yourself a favor! Also for the adults who hate being sick Benylin Cold and Flu 2 x 180ml is on sale for the same price. I should have grabbed one because as I have mentioned before I hate being sick more than almost anything and thankfully I don’t get sick too often. That being said when I do get sick its always either Fall or Spring, so I should have preempted the situation and bough one… Be prepared… Good motto. (Lion King reference anyone? Scar? “be prepared” song??? anyone???) (I’ll get one later this week)

What else have we here this time…. Oh ya the food saver vacuum sealing machine thingy. These things are super cool! We have one at the restaurant and use it on a daily basis.

I may go back and grab one of these and a few of the extra bag packs (which are on sale for $9.00 off at 30.99) because they are well worth it. As someone who loves the idea of buying whole chickens and full strip-loins or full rib steaks or whole fish to prep THIS will actually make sure that your investment in big expensive cuts of meat freeze properly without getting freezer burn. They suck all the air out and create a vacuum seal on the bag, that extends the storage life of things drastically even if you aren’t freezing them. So if you have the space for one of these saving $40 bucks is a no brainer to me… I mean you can portion out individual pieces of chicken, fish beef pork etc. into individual little bags and store them for up to 2 years!!! Get it and start saving on bulk food when you can. It says you can even use it for cheese too so ummm, winner there too!

hmmmm….. I may be out of ideas here. Took a break to eat some dinner and watch the end of Dancing with the stars… (Not my idea) and catch up on the days news. But I think it’s time to bid you adieu. I’m sure I could go on about the slow cooker chicken dish I made yesterday but I think I’ll pass for now. I’ll torture you next week with more food stuff. For now, I think it’s bed time.

Goodnight folks, see you soon!

Cheers!

 

EDIT***

  1. Thanks again for your weekly efforts… it’s greatlybappteciated. May I ask which store you go to in Toronto, as the *’d items aren’t available at all locations. Thanks!

    • Hey Melanie, So I’m shopping at the Kingston, ON. Location. Regardless the *’d items are either clearance or managers specials so they won’t be the same at all locations. Take a eek athe F.A.Q. section of the blog to get a few more answers about that here
      https://cocoeast.ca/faq-new/ I”m glad you like the blog and hopefully it gets you some great deals and saves a bit of time too. Cheers!

    • Hey! I was gonna post that!!! lol I have NEVER seen any nuts on sale so I managed to snag a bag ? last week thanks to this nice blogger. Just be sure to refrigerate them after opening cuz walnuts go rancid at room temps.

  2. Wow, a ton (or “tonne”?) of pics this week! You’ve raised the bar and spoiled us all… thanks!
    I really appreciate seeing the executive member coupons in the photos since I totally forgot I had them in a pile of stuff on my coffee table. Way back when they came in the mail, I thought October? pfffft! If you haven’t tried those mini wontons, they are really quite good… great to have a bag in the freezer for a quick easy supper, fried up with onions and red peppers over rice and seasoned with a combo of soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil, or simmered in chicken broth (also on sale) with leftover rice or fine noodles and a handful of spinach. I’ll stop now ?

  3. Can’t wait to see what you do with the spiralizer gadget. I want to see pictures please cause I’ve been curious myself.
    Thanks .

    • Hey Tim, that’s great! It’s my pleasure and who knows maybe we’ve passed each other in the aisles a few times! Cheers, and happy shopping.

  4. Does anyone know if the dried mango is on sale in the Maritimes? It is the best dried mango we have had and we go through a ton of it!

    • Hey Heather, I can’t help you there but maybe a few other readers have some info? Those mangoes are fantastic aren’t they!

  5. Thanks so much for putting this together each week!! 🙂

    Quick question: do happen to know when the sale on the Zavida Hazelnut Vanilla coffee ends? The reflection of the camera flash makes the date unreadable.

  6. A friend raved about your blog and I check it before every trip now. I love that I can see the sales ahead of time and decide if it’s something we really can use. Not that there are *no* impulsive purchases, but your site definitely helps! I hope you can keep up the wonderful work 🙂

    • Hello Elise! Thank you so much for your kind words! You can look forward to reading this for a long long long time! and yes… I’ve succumb to a great many impulse buys at Costco even with a list and not wanting to waste time. It just happens.

  7. Hi CE.
    I’ve been following you for a long time, LOVE your blog and can’t wait until Tuesday mornings to read your e-mail.
    For ages, 99% of what you publish has been available and on sale at the Fredericton Costco store.
    Why pay full price for something you use or want to try (* and .97 are helpful too).
    However, lately, a small number of items are either not available at all or are available, but not on sale.
    I know you warn us in Please note: at the start, but just some “I’m not non-complaining” feedback for your information from a regular Fredericton store shopper.
    Please keep up the great work.

    • Hi Steve, thank you very much for your feedback and I appreciate that you’ve been a long time reader! Which items in particular are not on sale at your location? If you post those up here maybe we can help everyone know right?

      • This week, I looked for the Sunice Men’s 1/4 zip and the were not there and he Cuisinart Digital Convection Oven and it was not on sale for $59.99. It was regular price – $89.99.
        Last week, Spudlers”Breakfast Hash – not on sale; Swiss Chalet Chicken Pot Pies – not there; Calvin Klein Dress Pant – not there.
        I can’t think past last week.

  8. Yorkdale Toronto – couldn’t find the Prince Edward Medley & found boys pajamas for 8.97, were cotton so not good if you are looking for something warmer. I did get the goat cheese. Will go back and relook for PEM as the real reason I went was to get a baby gift.
    Thanks for your weekly efforts, helps with my overall spending.

  9. Thank you for your efforts and for confirming my request to join. This is a fantastic resource for Costco shoppers. I have been looking for dinnerware and voila the 24 place setting on sale for 24.97, just what we needed 6 plates, side plates, salad and soup bowls. Bought 2 sets and we are ready for Thanksgiving dinner tomorrow…no more chipped mismatched plates.
    Looking forward to your next update.
    Toni-Marie

    • That’s great Toni-Marie! Hopefully you had a great Thanksgiving dinner with lots of leftovers! Who doesn’t like Turkey sandwiches right?
