OK, here we are again on a wonderful (officially) fall Monday evening. Work is done for the day, Shopping is done, dinner was ordered in tonight (from Darbar- the BEST Indian food in town IMO, Veggie Korma, Chicken Bhoona, Darbar rice and Papadams… oh so good!) and the clean-up was fast and easy. I’m ready for you now.

That’s a good example of where my head is at today so… well there it is.

I had a great time shopping at Costco today, lots and lots of good sales (I couldn’t help but dive into a few myself) but apparently one of the more important ones is the Diaper Genie refill 4-pack

These evidently only go on sale once a year (so I’ve been told) so it is time to do one of my favorite things folks “STOCK UP” (as stated numerous times I have cats therefore no need for diaper genies or their refills BUT if you do have diaper sporting kids in the house, may be of importance) They don’t take up alot of space ether which is nice so you’re not losing a ton of real estate by picking up a few of these… or a few dozen of ’em.

Coke, Diet coke, and ginger-ale are all on sale this week for 8.99 so soda drinkers rejoice!

Lots and lots of snacks and candy on sale this week too, from new flavors of Bark Thins (pumpkin seed & almond) to full size candy bars… all of the brands, Cadbury, Mars, and Nestle (favorite, right here! though Cadbury does have Crispy Crunch which is another long lost favorite of mine and of course Mr. Big… who doesn’t like a Mr.Big???) Plus Spearmint & Polar Ice Excel gum, trail mixes and Protein bars a plenty… Dad’s classic oatmeal cookies are on sale again for 8.69 (seems a frequent sale) I can remember being on a paint job where there was a box of these kickin’ around and I got so hooked on them. Needless to say for my benefit I have not bough a box of these to this day.

Those little K-cups are on sale this week, the Van Houtte (32.99) and Timothy’s (31.99) for the 80 packs. This really only applies if you own a Kuerig or a single portion coffee maker like that. Don’t get me wrong, I think those are great in a hotel room. small quick and easy… But nothing beats the sound, taste and smell of fresh ground and brewed coffee. (except maybe bacon… that goes with coffee and a few other breakfast ingredients)

Gillette Fusion powerglide razors are on sale guys (16 pack for $14 off) so as are the Edge 17 packs (+ razor $5 off) So if you’re looking to keep sharp and shaved take note, and grab a few packs. Razors are expensive so a sale like this is pretty awesome! Unless you’re going mountain man for the fall/winter in which case… you don’t need ’em.

heh heh heh heh….

Those Castlevetrano olives were still on sale this week for 7.49 and I couldn’t help myself, I grabbed a jar.

I just can’t stare at olives too long without having my mouth start to water, so yes- that ENTIRE aisle is torture. Whats that??? almost an entire aisle of Costco dedicated to olives or many varieties both stuffed and unstuffed, pitted and unpitted, loaded with my other favorite food group garlic (torture walking by that jar every week people I tell ya!) And the the Pickles, thankfully there aren’t like, a plethora of pickles available or I would possibly be broke… Or still in the aisle surrounded by open jars of olive these tasty treats about to be dragged away by Costco security. (anyone catch that Olive pun back there???) Though I haven’t cracked the jar open yet, haven’t had time to do so. Maybe a midnight snack??? I’ll let you know what I think next week and if the jar is empty I promise I’ll take a picture as proof that I am an Olive/Pickle monster. (Pickle monster was an actual nickname I had, more on that later probably… no promises though)

I also couldn’t resist the soft cushy feel of this plush throw blanket… Mmmmm getting into fall/winter mode. Now, no- we didn’t really need another super soft, squishy and warm blanket that looks fantastic on the couch (or bed) but hey, sometimes I gotta give in! Plus the next 7 1/2 months could be chilly and/or downright COLD! Multiple cozy blankets aren’t gonna hurt anyone! (and at 9.99, I’m no fool)

Oh yeah, the heat came on tonight and Ewok was so confused as to what was happening. He was standing there staring at the register for at least 5 minutes almost like something was alive in there, he’s a funny little guy (though even Dexter was doing the same thing… Also I looked afterwards to make sure nothing was alive in there, there was not.)

…Well you’ve seen 2 of them, why not look at my shopping from today?… and Dexter.

It wasn’t really a go crazy kind of trip this week, as most of the staples I usually buy are still in decent stock at home but I decided to go off the board today with a few things just for fun.

Every time I walk through the aisles I stop at the magazine stand and do a quick little browse. I’ve never bough one from Costco but always look at the food magazines- because as we all know I love cooking, and well food is delicious AND nutritious AANNNDDD those darned magazines always make food look so good… So when I saw the sign that said %30 off retail price I said “yup! gettin’ ’em)

I have yet to dive into these (much like the olives) but I will this evening. The one page that sold it to me was page 42 in Bon Appetit- it’s a 9 picture step-by-step process for glazing carrots… I was drooling, and thus- I have magazines to read. Fine Cooking magazine was no pushover either, and as it is heading to chilly root vegetable weather there are 4 or 5 pages dedicated to the wonderful potato. (as my partner is Ukrainian these are highly revered in our household so I felt like this may have been scripture I had stumbled upon) so it made it’s way home as well lest I be struck down by the potato gods.

Not a ton to say about this purchase yet… I’m a die hard Sriracha consumer- however I am loyal to one brand… and It’s not this one, so the fact that I slipped this into my cart almost surprised me a bit. (now at 4 or 5 bucks it’s not make or break, however I don’t like wasting food nor do I have space in the fridge for more condiments and hot sauces)(also the brand I’m loyal to is the Huy Fong Foods Inc. brand- made in California)  All that being said I’ve been curious about this… and my will power was weak today so Ho-Ya brand will get it’s chance to step into the ring and prove it’s worth.

 

…Or face the torture of condiment purgatory that is the very back of my fridge. You have been warned Ho-Ya Sriracha… You have been warned.

Ok, enough about what I got. I was asked in a comment if I could post meat sales… I’m very much on the fence about this one as any sales that happen with meat isn’t going to be the same and I don’t want to mislead anyone. I will however share with you a few meat sales that are on at the Kingston, Ontario warehouse so you can see what specials are happening there. Also feel free to share any meat sales at your Costco here!)

Pretty good deals for sure, but again sales aren’t necessarily going to be the same at your warehouse so if you like what you see I would advise you to CALL AHEAD to verify the price and availability. Also read the dates of the sales, some of them expire on Wednesday. details details details.

Some more store specific prices are butter, this is another hot topic when it comes to debating the price…. Last week it was $3.99 at my warehouse, and this week???

Still $3.99. It does fluctuate though… I’ve got it about a dollar or more cheaper at Costco before.

Someone else commented that peanut butter prices can fluctuate just as much which I found interesting however it wasn’t specified which brand so here’s what I had… not much really.

Please comment and let us all know what your butter and peanut butter prices are below as well as the Costco warehouse you shop at so we can all see!

Well… My week of crazy work is over now, thankfully. Just in time for my next week to begin! But as usual I always look forward to my Monday shopping and posting here, so thank you for indulging me with all my GIF’s, pictures of cats, bad jokes and talk about food. I’m glad you enjoy all of those things as much as I do. And the sales… yes the sales are good too!

Ok, I’ve said my piece now it is time to go and indulge in a half jar of olives and apparently an episode of Frasier.

Good night,

Cheers!

  1. “The price at your local Costco takes precedent over the prices listed on this blog.”

    That should be “precedence” not precedent. Grates on me every time I see it. But, hey, it’s your blog. Write it however it works for you. ?

  2. Thanks so much for all your hard work!!! It is very much appreciated as always. Love going through all the secret sales. Costco should be compensating you somehow.

    Enjoy your week!! 🙂

    • Thanks Layla Bay, I’ve had a great (albeit busy) week! As always I love seeing your comments here. Hope you’re having a good week and look forward to seeing your comments next week! Enjoy your weekend.

  3. Yes, I’ve seen that same Kraft peanut butter for as low as 4.99 (not as an on-sale item)….but noticed that it’s when expiry is close. Butter varies as you’ve noted and block cheese used to – anywhere from 6.99-9.99 but, again, not as a sale item – since they switched to Kirkland brand cheese it is always a steady 11.99. I love your blog (an I love cost-co!!)

    • Thank you Melissa, god to know there are other people out there looking a price variations. I’m glad you enjoy the blog and look forward to seeing your comments here each week!

  4. Just gotta tell ya, I snagged one of those buffalo plaid shirts too. At $13.99, they are a steal but I scored mine about a month ago for $9.99! Another “start the car, start the car” moment lol… Last winter, I wanted a red & black one but they were nowhere to be found so bought a black & white very similar to yours at Marks. I happened to be in Eddie Bauer recently and theirs are $90 and very similar quality!! Now I’m second guessing myself about not buying MORE colours…. Thanks again and cheers from Waterdown ?

    • Hello and thanks for reading as always Jan, I look forward to your comments here every week! I was hoping those plaid shirts would be on sale soon but I grabbed one anyhow. Really soft and actually feel like decent quality which is a nice change. (and for the price??? no question!!!) Cheers until Monday!

  5. Last night butter was 4.19 at Kitchener Costco – highest price I’ve seen!! They were clearing out double jars of Strubs Hot Pepper Jalapeno Mix for $2.97, and Roots zip-up binders for 6.97. and Alba SPF 40 Sunscreen for 5.97 for a pack of 3.

  6. Would it be possible to include /show if the kirkland women’s pullover are in stock. I get a few every year as they are so comfortable and soft. These are the non hooded pullover/sweatshirts that are cotton blend
