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.
I was certain that I was headed into some chaos today at Costco. Holiday Monday, perfectly warm, people with the day off… I figured, madness!
How wrong I was. It felt absolutely deserted today, I breezed through the garden center gawking at all the new baskets and potted flowers.
Had a quick discussion with some other people about how much I love the Feit electric LED string lights.
After which I headed into a mostly vacant warehouse. It reminded me of the days I’ve gone after new restrictions have been implemented, so much room to stroll around and no waiting to get to the sale items for pictures. Gotta love days like this, right folks?
And as for sale items, here’s a few of them for you.
Scotts EZ seed 11.3kg bag -$12.00 @ $47.99
Band-Aid variety pack 210pk -$4.00 @ $12.99
Pure Protein variety pack -$4.20 @ $16.79
Tre Stelle feta cheese 1kg -$3.00 @ $10.99
Naked Smoothies multipack 12 x 296ml -$4.00 @ $11.99
Starbucks French roast 1.13kg -$5.00 @ $16.49
Kellogg’s cereal in a cup 638g -$2.00 @ $77.99
Tide liquid HE laundry detergent 131 washloads -$5.00 @ $18.99
Softsoap handsoap with aloe 2 x 2.36L -$3.00 @ $8.69
I was fooled into thinking that Starbucks Caffe Verona whole bean coffee was on sale, but it was the French roast instead. Has anyone tried that one?
The Band-Aid variety pack is a great deal @ $12.99, and will likely come in handy for those of you who either have kids (where scrapes and cuts are inevitable this time of year) or those of you looking to step up your emergency kit prep game. Never a bad time to that!
And to Elly who was messaging me about the Lysol toilet bowl cleaner, it is on sale for $8.49 for the 4 pack.
I bought some of those New Nordic Hair gro vitamins a few weeks ago because well… I wanted to see if they worked, obviously my hair doesn’t grow as fast or thick as it used to so I thought maybe a little help was in order.
So far I must say that my hair is indeed growing, however I’m not sure if it’s growing faster or thicker than it has been. It’s certainly longer now than it has ever been however that’s because I haven’t been to a hairdresser for, ummm….
15 months??? Yikes!
I read that you’re supposed to grow about a half inch of hair a month, so I should have grown about 7.5 inches of hair. I seem to be a little bit ahead of the curve there, so that’s encouraging, I haven’t really noticed any change in new growth or thickness yet but a few weeks might be a little premature to glean any results.
Has anyone else tried these before with any success, or is it snake oil?
Jennifer in Kingston, I’m sorry to hear your little furry guy wasn’t doing well. He’s on the mend now though I hope?
Also Jen & Jan those Feit electric LED’s are awesome. I had worries about them being that really bright “exam room white” LED tone but they aren’t at all. It’s that warm white, so unless you have to string confined to a small area (in which case you can unscrew every other bulb to make it less bright) they’re great!
And on that note folks, I’ve got a hockey game to watch so with a little help from Biff I’m gonna make like a tree and….
Exactly, cheers folks.
Stay calm and Costco on!

I thought these lights were solar powered!!! I looked a some a few months ago at costco that were. Will have to take a trip there tomorrow and pick some up then! thanks for pointing that out Jan!!
My little guy hasn’t had as much improvement as I had hoped, so phone call to the vets shortly, thanks for asking! <3
I remember finding out that Costco was open on Victoria Day a few years ago, it was amazing, so quiet!! I think one of the very few places that are actually open on the holiday! Wish I had remembered that this year!
Wondering what hockey game you watched last night, my team lost 🙁
Love me some back to the future! I better make like a tree and get back to work lol
PS sorry for the double replies on the weekend.
After you post your comment the comment section goes disappears, and when I refreshed my comment wasn’t there, so I wrote it again – oops!
Hah! I was gonna ask YOU that question about the French roast vs. Verona coffee lol 😝! I’m guessing that maybe the French roast may not be an “every day” coffee but more of an occasional indulgence?
Now that we’re in the last week of the month, I’m finding myself looking forward to next month’s specials…. good gosh I need a hobby 🤔. I wonder how they’re going to handle all the unsold clothes and seasonal stuff? I can see piles of boxes behind the barriers.
Stay safe ‘n’ sane, Jan
Haha, I’m note sure whats gonna happen with the French roast yet as we haven’t opened it up… Maybe it’ll be a weekend coffee?
As for all the unsold merchandise I really have no idea whats going to happen, but soon enough we’ll be able to get it!
I just returned to your Blog after a hiatus of many months as I have been avoiding Costco during the epidemic. Terrific changes you have made during my absence!!! Now I can just copy & paste the product name & details into my AnyList Costco Shopping List from the description below each photo (previously had to do name, size, savings, expiry date & price individually).
Thanks for all the work you put into the Blog. 👍
That’s great Jan thank you very much! We’ve been working to make the blog easier to read and more accessible, so I’m glad its working out for you. Welcome back!
Hi! It sucks that the time eventually comes when you realize you are losing hair.. I’m in the same boat and I was actually wondering about hairgro too. The question I have is does it make hair grow ONLY on the head or it grows all over the place? I can’t imagine that its targets head hair specifically.. Hair is hair everywhere the isnt it? I’m quite hairy but only losing hair from the scalp lol and I don’t want to take this supplement only to have more hair grow everywhere else!
Have a great short week 🙂
Haha, I understand Eduard. I’m in the same boat as you, so far I haven’t noticed any other hair growth anywhere else. I think there are specific chemicals and hormones that effect the scalp specifically in men. DHT is one of them and there are specific DHT blockers that may be worth looking into.
Jennifer in Kingston. We have 2 sets of the solar powered lights. One set up at cottage that we inadvertently left on during the winter. When we returned in May they were working perfectly. Highly recommend.
By the way the mochi ice cream was AWESOME! Maybe that’s because it was the first time I tried mochi ice cream but these were really good! The vanilla one was made with vanilla beans, the chocolate one had small chocolate pieces and the mango one had really pronounced mango flavor.
Thank you for these treasure hunts! Def helps with planning when to head out to the warehouse.
I’ve been curious about the Nordic Hair Gro tablets too so thanks for sharing. Looking forward to a future update!
Thank you AJ, I’m glad the treasure hunts help out.
I willing to give those pills the benefit of the doubt for growing longer hair, though I’m not sure about the new growth part of it… Time will tell!
the french roast is, in my opinion, superior to the Verona.
The French Roast coffee is great coffee perfer it over the Verona
Again, thank you!

Hi! Thank you for your post. Did you find the LED string lights in the garden centre? I haven’t found them in store in Ontario.
Hi Tamara, yes the garden centre has all the string lights and outdoor products.

Is the Mochi ice cream a bar or just the ice cream Eduard?
