Gook Luck Everyone!
Well it has certainly been a fun weekend folks, and I’ve found myself in Barrie, ON. which means I got to visit a different Costco today! Woo-Hoo!
I know it seems silly, but it is always kind of exciting when you get to visit a different store and see all the different items they have!
I mean I probably spent as much time looking at the items I hadn’t seen before as I did looking for the sales items, so Barrie Costco shoppers… I think you’ve got a pretty good spot! I mean, plus you have the gas bar…
That’s how I feel about it folks.
Anyhow, take a peek at the sales this week first folks.
Now… Onto the things that I saw in the Barrie, ON. warehouse. Where to start…
Well I mean if I had these Double Bubble gumballs 200CT ($9.99) available at my fingertips I would be in trouble… Double Trouble.
Who could possibly have a bag of these hanging around without eating them all, right?
Another I’m very jealous of is this one.
Kim Chi?! You have a 2L jar of delicious looking Kim Chi available??? How dare you taunt me like this… Do you even know how much I love this stuff? The worst part is that I couldn’t even realistically take it home with me, so it really was just a tease. 2L of Kim Chi for $11.99… If you live in the Barrie area, or have tried this brand let me know how it is please! And then send me all of it.
And Le Creuset?! You’re gonna throw that at me too???
Le Creuset cast iron grill pans for $149.99 in 2 colors… Jealous again…
And as much as I’m a fan of the Kirkland Signature pepperoni pizza, these Pizza Romana Stuffed crust pizza’s (2 x 920g) looked pretty mouth watering.
Again, how do I go about getting this stuff at my warehouse… Why can’t I have these delicious goodies!!!
I actually (as dramatic as I may seem) think it’s really fun to walk into a different warehouse and see all the different items they have and see how they’re all layed out differently. (I think that means I spend too much time at Costco!)
Seriously though as someone who is at Costco (95% of the time at the same warehouse) at least twice a week, every week, all year long, seeing that little bit of variety is kind of exciting. Plus now I can ask my In-Laws to bring up some Kim Chi next time they come to visit!
I’ll leave them with that little *wink, wink* and I’ll leave you with the sales folks.

COVID-19 vaccinations are ramping up across Eastern Canada, follow the links below to find out if you’re eligible and where they are available in your Province.
Since we are still 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.

Is anyone else having a hard time finding the Kirkland equivalent of Claritin? My Costco in Saint John NB hasn’t had it for a while. They don’t say they’re not carrying it anymore, just that they don’t have it in right now. Thanks!
For the cost, that kimchi is pretty decent. I like my kimchi a little more fermented so I like it to sit for about a month or so before it gets good but it takes us months to go through it. Have you ever tried to make kimchi pancakes? Soooooo good! Or kimchi soup/stew. Yum.
Oh yes Yoona, I’ve made Kimchi pancakes and they are indeed delicious! I actually have a cookbook called “the kimchi cookbook” so that’s how much I love the stuff! I like to make my own, but I also love trying different store bought and other home made kinds just to taste them all. I think I like them a little less fermented, but still love ’em all!
Good on ya for the Ziploc sponsorship! I love their freezer bags and often rinse them out and reuse them.
I agree with you about visiting a different Costco. I’ve gone to one in the USA (sure do wish we could have wine etc here!!) and in Mexico…. fun to visit with many similar items and the prices were at the time quite comparable.
It’s funny how I’m so accustomed to “my” warehouse that going to the one in “another nearby city whose name will remain anonymous for good reasons” can seem very foreign…. the layout’s all wrong, hate the parking lot and checkout, and don’t get me started on the entitled customers and grumpy staff. The only good thing is the cheap(er) gas lol! Oh dear 🤭 did I say that all out loud?? My bad 🙄
Thanks again and cheers for now, Jan
NO NO NO!! How dare you go to another Costco!!! LOL
I’ve actually been to that one, it’s huge and awesome, so a little jelly!
I purchased the dehumidifier for my dad last week, and like you, he thinks it’s great, so thanks for the review!
Miss the kitties, hope you’re doing well.
Went to Costco in Fredericton today ,some of the specials listed were not specials in that store.? Thought the specials were all store in Eastern Canada
Holy sales!!
I know it’s the end of the week but has anyone seen Kinesys Sunscreen at the Stoney creek store??
Thanks for all of your hard work, it’s always appreciated!!

It must just be a stock issue Max? I know we didn’t have any here in Kingston until about a month ago I think.

Have tried to make Kimchi. The first time it turned out wonderful! Hasn’t turned out since. Don’t know what I am doing wrong.

Thanks for you efforts
Hah! I actually felt a bit disloyal when I was there 😝. Thank goodness I don’t like it better than “mine”!
Doing the happy dance. Love Kimchi. Use it as my probiotic.
Thank you for doing this newsletter.
Thank you again
Ha! Funny. I shop at Costco in Barrie and I am always jealous of the different items your store carries.

Hi Barbara, while most sales will be the same across Eastern Canada there will always be some exceptions.
Holy sales!!
