This Costco Treasure Hunt Post is sponsored by the fine folks at L’Oreal Paris, who asked us to review their Dream Lengths Shampoo, Conditioner & refill pouch now available at Costco Warehouses Canada-wide. You can read the review and learn how you can win one of 3 x $50 Costco cash cards by following this link to my review!
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.
Welcome to the first November Costco Treasure Hunt ladies and gentlemen!
Hopefully you all had spook-tacular Halloween nights full of ghoulish (or cute) children seeking tricks or treats? We went downtown to visit my Mom and Sister and pass out candy (we don’t get any kids out here) and it was a success! (Plus my sister did a great job decorating)
There were lot’s of great costumes out there. But Ewok and Dexter took the cake I think, and so did you!
In the vote for “Who wore it better” you decided that…
It was Dexter who wore it better!
Just in case that’s too small to read, Dexter pulled in 55% of the votes (69 votes) with Ewok trailing with 45% (56 votes) Ahhh fun times putting costumes on the kitties…
I do love the Norwegian Fjord smoked salmon and it being on sale is a bonus.
The only problem for me is that I can’t thaw that much smoked salmon and eat it all before it goes bad. Perfect for a gathering though!
I decided to give the DOM reserve smoked Atlantic salmon 10 x 75g a try since it’s individual portions.
At $24.99 it is a bit more expensive, but I can thaw individual portions of it at a time when I want them and not have to worry about food waste. So I’ll let you know how that tastes this week folks!
The RX bar protein bars are on sale again for $5.00 off @ $18.99.
I like protein bars and like most things it’s good to switch it up once and a while, so while I’m hooked on the Clif bar builders protein at the moment I think I’ll switch it up for a bit and pick up a box of these. Anyone out there have any favorite protein bars or shakes I should try??? (Doesn’t have to be available at Costco either)
Cheese variety boxes seem to be becoming more popular these days and there’s nothing wrong with that, and this Taste of Canada cheese box looks like it would a perfect addition to any charcuterie board at any party!
At $19.99 it’s a steal too. Pair that with some cured meats and you’re the star of the party! OK well maybe not the star, but the bringer of cheeses and meats usually garners some level of attention.
Speaking of attention, Ewok and Dexter are all over trying to get some of that right now. Though you can see Ewok is jealous that he lost the vote.
Ewok is just as handsome, as proven below… I mean look at his cute little toes!!! (and the daggers hiding behind them!)
Well looking at all these cozy looking cats is reminding me that it’s time to join them and get cozy as well.
I hope you all have a great week & enjoy the new sales!
As always Stay Calm and Costco on!
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!

Always look forward to your posts! I feel the same way about the big pack of the smoked salmon so I’m excited to see the smaller portion pack. Please let us know if it’s any good if you can this week, otherwise will catch the big pack while it’s still on sale this week. Thanks!
You mentioned you can’t use up an entire smoked salmon package by yourselves. I open the package and while still frozen cut it into portion size hunks then individually wrap each hunk, put them into a freezer bag (from Costco of course) and back into the freezer. While not the prettiest presentation to serve guests it does allows me to open a portion at a time and enjoy it on a bagel with cream cheese or in an omelette, all at a reasonable cost.
Love your newsletters, keep them coming.
That is a great idea Mark, I honestly can’t believe I didn’t think about that! My concern was more for individual use so presentation wouldn’t be an issue…. Wow, can’t believe I didn’t catch that! Thanks for reading and commenting Mark!
I bought the Dom individual packs of smoked salmon a couple of weeks ago when it was on sale. It was a great deal as I can easily get 3 good bagels worth out of one pack. My local No Frills often has the individual packs on for $2 each but they are only 50 grams compared to the Costco packs at 75 grams.
I tried the individual packages, very tasty. I also noticed they are less salty, which is very good for my health lol. Very convenient, me too one package makes 3 bagels easily. Baught it when it was 20$ a pack!

We bought the individual portions of smoked salmon and love it❤️ The taste and quality are great. I prefer it to the Norwegian big package personally.
Thank you for all your weekly emails:)
No way! That’s too funny, and an illustration of how small our world is. Well I was there passing out candy with my Mom, Sister and partner so you may have seen me!
I can’t say enough good things about thise big Thermoflasks. With just a little ice, it keeps my water so cold all day. We always take one on longer car rides and even on vacation (when that was a thing) – keeps water cold at the beach all day.
Two years in and they are still in great shape.

My pleasure Z, thanks for reading! Another reader (Mark Roza) recommended slicing the other one and re-packaging it… Good call as well!

That’s great info Max, how do you find the flavor of the DOM reserve packs???

There is also the 10 pack of single serve
It works for us
That’s the one I’m going to try out Mark, you like it obviously? How long does it last you on average?
This is one of my favourite emails. I look forward to this every Tuesday and I am very thankful for your efforts.

Small comment today as my last two disappeared!
Love the bow-ties on the boys.
Must have been fun teaching them how to tie them!
Ok so I did a double to make up for your loss 😉😂 Cheers from Waterdown!
Aww thanks Jan hahaha 😝
Glad to see my comment stuck around!
I swear those posts go to never never land sometimes 🙄.
Btw, love your comment on the kitties’ apparent bow tying talents lol 😂

Is that a mistake on the DOVE derma shampoo?
$13.98
-$4.00
Pay $14.98 at the register.
Costco make a mistake. LOL
Wow, WOW! Solid catch there Gary!!! I just went through and looked and you are indeed correct, they made a mistake!
Hi, it actually says $18.19, the flash from the camera makes the 18 look like a 13.
Have a good day and thanks for these post!
