Another gorgeous summer week has come and gone Costco family, which means I have your Monday sales here for you!
The last 2 weeks of August are always the busiest at work so I’m (as I have been lately) drained! We have had some time to enjoy the new house though, and the new Samsung T.V. (though not too much time!)
One of the joys of this new place is the large yard, which evidently needs to be mowed… I think we perhaps both chuckled at that “Oh I guess we’re gonna have to make sure we stay on top of that, haha” Well, I guess we both kind of forgot; or perhaps it just got lost in the shuffle… So yes, I need to get out and mow the overgrown lawn that we have neglected. I also need to finish painting… I could use a few extra hours in the day folks to be honest! (I’m sure some of you agree with me as well)
There were lots of great sales happening this week at my Costco warehouse today (159 of them to be exact) as well as a special on the HP printer ink where if you buy any 2 at the same time you get $30 off, which considering how expensive printer ink can be I think that’s a great deal! The Persil Laundry detergent is on sale for $4.00 off and I loved that stuff and used it I think for 4 or 5 months straight last year before switching to the Sunlight and then the ECO’s brand recently as it’s supposed to be easier on Septic systems (another learning process for the new house… Not used to that!) Same thing with toilet paper, I heard someone say once that the Kirkland brand wasn’t good for septic systems but after doing an little mason jar test I think it should be fine. Maybe I’ll do a little test in the next week and share the results???
Let’s take a peek at some of the sales happening this week at my local Costco warehouse!
Those burger look pretty good… I haven’t tried the fresh patties, has anyone here tried them? if so what do you think??
Another thing I grabbed today at Costco (and a first grab I’d add) was the Sifto CrystalPlus salt for water systems.
…Never had to deal with this kinda thing before, and so.. ya…. I trust Costco to stock quality products and will assume I made the right choice . F|rom what I hear this is a by-annual thing (or Tri-annual???) but for less than $6.00 a bag, it doesn’t really matter I don’t think. I guess we will all find out together though!
Oh and don’t forget (if you haven’t already) to check out the L’Oreal Lash Paradise Mascara review here and enter to win a 3-pack of the product! You can link to the sites below
Free to enter and, who doesn’t like winning things?!?!
On that, I think I’ll leave you.
Have a great week, enjoy some great sales and I look forward to seeing you next week with more sales and updates at the house… I feel like this week will have a few good pushes to get things done!
Good night.

You asked if any have used the fresh beef burgers. We have been buying them for years and love them.
We also have 4 dogs and I cook two burgers and then cut each into 3 and slice them and put the same amount on the top of each dog’s kibble and they never tire of them. They get 6 meals each out of those 2 large burgers.
Look forward to your toilet paper and septic test. I’m new to septic too. Can you test Charmin as that’s the brand I use? Or describe to us how and I’ll do the test too?
Look forward to Tuesday mornings when I wake up and check you blog. Keep up the great work.
Thanks so much! I too am on septic and would love to see your test results on the toilet paper. We switched to fabric softener sheets rather than liquid which makes a big difference. We use tide pods rather than straight liquid which keeps people from using too much. Same goes for the dishwasher; packets rather than liquid or powder. So far so good. Good luck!
I would Not recommend using Charming( the one with bears) in your septic as I found it takes forever to break down properly. I left some sit in toilet for the day and still hadn’t broke down..
Family of 4 with septic here. I’ve been buying Kirkland toilet paper forever now and we just had our septic cleaned at the 4 year mark and were told everything looked great! I’d say Kirkland TP is good for septics and ALWAYS a good deal! Thanks for all of your hard work!
Thanks again for the post…love the fresh burgers – they are great for BBQs. I season them with salt, pepper and Keg steak spice, and my guests always rave about them!
I know KIrkland tp is highly regarded and apparently their best selling product but I just don’t think it compares to Charmin. I’ve tried it several times and still keep going back. That said, we’re not on septic so I don’t have to take that into consideration. I grew up in a house with a septic tank and remember the bright green stripes on the lawn where the grass grew SO much better! Hope you have a good lawn mower! Lol
Thank you so much for doing this especially since you have so much else on your plate these days.
oh, and I don’t know if you want to do a PSA, but I bought the Tommy Hilfiger sheets in the blue and white check – they dyed my white cat blue (it was less noticeable on me). Washed them 4 times!! and the dye was still rubbing off, so I took them back and let them know, but I see they are still on the ‘shelf’…
I freeze the beef burgers individually in zip locks and use just one in any recipe that calls for ground beef. That way we’re not eating a lot of meat and it seems to work just fine in all of my recipes.
Hey Lynn, that’s a brilliant idea! It was mentioned that they are 1/2 lb each so that makes for easy portion control since so many recipes call for 1 lb. I will do that too….. thanks!
Btw, I love that folks are starting to share their experiences and product opinions here more. It’s very helpful!
Again, thanks so much. I really look forward to your posts each week.

Thank you for another great review … good luck with the meowing!
The fresh burgers are too big, half pounders! I cut in half to freeze

Has anyone bought the chicken parmesan?

Do you find the laundry pods leave a residue on your clothes? I’ve been thinking of switching but have heard they don’t dissolve the best
