I walk the whole store for you every Monday when Costco Sale items and Costco Flyer sales are released for the week, then post them here and on our Facebook page.
So thank you all for bearing with us while we dealt with (and continue to deal with) the website migration. It’s not an easy process and I understand there were some issues with loading times and the site crashing so I apologize for that and thank you for being patient while we got it figured out.
Well if today doesn’t feel like a typical spring day, I don’t know what does.
Overcast & rainy… But that’s OK because we all know what spring showers bring folks, and I think you know how much I’m looking forward to that!
I mean who isn’t though right? Even Ewok has been enjoying his time on the back deck playing games with me.
Though now my hands have the scratches to show for it… Perhaps he’s having too much fun out there?! (Or maybe I need to stop putting my hands at risk when sharp little dagger claws are in play)
Flesh wounds aside Costco was again nice and quiet today, no line-up and at least a half empty parking lot. (Perhaps people are starting to follow the rules?) And for having essential goods only I still managed to find about 142 sales & a few new items today.
Check a few of them out below.
*
KS muscle & back platinum 80 caplets -$250 @ $8.49
Aerius allergy 130 tablets -$10.00 @ $39.99
Vileda promist max mop 1 unit + 1 refill -$6.00 @ $23.99
Olay total effects anti-aging moisturizer 2 x 50ml -$9.00 @ $27.99
Gillette pro shield razor + 9 cartridges -$10.00 @ $34.99
Fibre 1 Oats & chocolate 30 x 35g -$2.30 @ $9.49
*
The Bag to Earth compost bags (30 pack) are on sale for $3.00 off @ $9.99 until April 25th so this is a great time for me to refill our stock of those.
I’m pretty sure the last time they were on sale was somewhere around a year ago and I think I bought 3 or 4 of them which is exactly what I plan on doing when I go back on Friday.
Also really nice to see the ALCAN BBQ buddy back ($9.49), a clear sign times of the BBQ are upon us. And then the ALCAN BBQ grade ultimate grillng foil 2pk (which is a new one) hit the shelves at $11.99.
I’m curious what exactly makes that BBQ grade foil… Anyone used this that can explain???
Seeing as outdoor cooking is the only way we’ll be cooking with friends and family for the next little bit (up to 5 people anyhow) We should be taking advantage of the warm spring weather whenever it hits.
I also had a question from the Costco Kingston Finds facebook group asking if stamps were still available. The answer to that question is…
So there ya go, I just “posted” the answer for you.
Hahaha… Sorry folks, I really couldn’t help that one but it does get Lloyd’s “stamp” of approval.
….
….
….
OK perhaps that was a bit much, but you gotta package jokes like that together.
And with that, Ewok has given me the boot and sent me on my way..
So I should go before I make another terrible joke.
Have a great night folks, stay safe and I’ll see you all soon!
Here’s some great news for those of you who are 60 & above and looking to get your first dose of a COVID-19 vaccine! You’re able to book an appointment now to get it at select Costco pharmacies! Right now it’s only at 6 Costco locations in Ontario but it’s something! (Click this link to go to the booking page)
Since we are in the third wave of COVID-19 I think it’s important to remember that we’re not out of the corona virus weeds yet, and each province has their own Health recommendations based on the provinces individual risk assessment and I would recommend that you follow the recommendations for your specific province. Information can be found at the following websites.
So there you go, a little reading material for you.
Be kind, be safe and stay healthy!
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 barbecue foil is thicker and stronger to resist ripping while grilling. It is also a longer roll to help with sealing larger items in. I use it for my potato packets.
Was wondering why you have blurred the expiry dates for the offers. This helps me decide how long I have to get to Costco to pick it up. I do not usually go every week. It would be useful if the offer expiry dates could return.
Thanks for your blog.
Hello Francis. So we have not “blurred” the expiry dates on purpose, however in order to upload the large amount data to our servers we do have to reduce the picture quality slightly. This is being done to allow us to implement a search feature in the near future that will be very beneficial to you and everyone else in searching for items on sale. All this being said, (and as has been posted in the blog before) ALL of the information regarding the item and its sale (expiry, price, item number, description) are listed below the picture in clear plain text. So all you need to do is look below the picture at the text.
Since Costco is limited to essential items for 4 weeks in Ontario, will the items in the Executive sale booklet from April 4 – May 2 be extended. If not how can you purchase them at the booklet price?
That is a great question Jill, though I don’t have an answer… I’d expect Costco will just move on to new sales after we know what is going to happen with the lockdown. Just a guess, I’m just a blogger so I don’t have much “inside information”
The new site looks great. Thanks for working so hard to improve it and also for shopping and looking for sales for us during the lock down in Ontario.
Stay safe.
Thanks as always, love the new website! Very clean and easy to use!
regarding the sakes, couldn’t help but notice the Dawn dishwasher (powerwash value pack 3*473ml) liquid sale price has gone up from $7.49 to $8.99, a whole 20%!
Have a great week everyone!
BBQ Tinfoil is wider and thicker than the Regular Tinfoil. Please be careful when using, the BBQ Foil itself can cut your fingers. A big Thank You for all the hard work you do for this site!
Hey hey hey! It’s lookin’ good!!
I had a bazillion things to comment on but can’t remember any 🙄. Ah well….
I was in “my” warehouse on the day of the bigger shutdown announcement and one of the staff said they were going to be putting tarps over all the clothing displays. She also commented on how badly customers have been treating them…. yelling, swearing, just nasty!! An employee had just quit because she couldn’t take it anymore. I was so appalled and just wanted to hug her. Working in retail can be pretty brutal even at the best of times and this right now ain’t that! 🙄🤯. I do my best to be kind but I wish there was some way to get the message out to the public that these folks are real people too, worthy of respect and just trying to get through the day! This breaks my heart and makes me angry all at once. 😞
Stay safe ‘n’ sane, Jan in Waterdown
A Bazillion?! That’s a lot Jan, not even sure if I know what that number looks like…
I really appreciate this message Jan, and connect to it very well. As someone who has worked retail & customer service for a majority of my life and I agree that under the best of times, we’re not treated very well by people unfortunately. During Covid as restaurant management I’ve seen more and dealt with more abuse and my staff has dealt with more abuse than normal. People are always trying to find ways to skirt the rules, or pretend they don’t apply to them, or blame a host or server for public health guidelines… It’s exhausting to say the least Jan so I understand why it makes your heart break, and I feel bad as well because if I could hug every retail worker I saw I would… I feel like they all need and deserve a really big hug from us all. I don’t have an answer aside from your motto “stay safe n’ sane”… Perhaps anytime you go shopping, thank every worker you see folks. They have to face this pandemic everyday and deal with rude & mean people everyday. And for alot of them (me included) not going to work is not an option.
Sorry Jan, this a long winded response but thank you for caring. We need more people like you!
Thank you so much for always going the extra mile each week, to do this for us. I think your Costco just got the Dawn signs reversed. The Dawn Powerwash should be $8.99 and the Dawn advanced power liquid dish detergent should be $7.49 you can also see the difference in the volume of the bottles. They just mixed up the signs. But otherwise all good and again, very grateful that you’re continuing to do this even during the lockdown. Thank you it really helps a lot! 🙂
Always appreciate your weekly posting and special updates. Thank you for doing this for all of us! It’s especially welcome these days when one doesn’t want to meander and browse, yet still want to grab those special deals.
Thank you!!
Looking good!! All that work has paid off. The new look is great! Thank you for all you do.
Just wondering if the Kingston Costco has their flowers/plants out or are they considered non-essential!
Keep up the great work. Love your sincerity & compassion. Thank you
Be Safe & Sane.
Love the new look! The font makes for easy reading. Stay safe!
Are all these items considered Essential in Ontario and were not blocked off?
Specifically wondering about the electric toothbrush.
Yes they are, according to the Ontario government website. Electric toothbrushes would fall under personal or health care products, apparently 😏
Thank you for all that you do. Can you tell me if they are still doing returns.
Sand – staff at our Costco told me that you can currently only return items you can currently buy.
It’s too bad that people didn’t take better care before and now Costco has very little to offer that would entice us to drive 80 km.

I also wanted to add how much I appreciate what you do!! Thank you.
