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.
Oxi Clean value pack wipes 2 packs of 30 -$3.00 @ $7.99
Slimfast meal replacement shake 15 x 325ml -$4.00 @ $14.99
Balderson sliced 1yr old cheddar 480g -$2.50 @ $8.49
Erie Meats chicken nuggets 2kg -$2.00 @ $7.99
Sunlight original fresh 225 wash loads -$4.00 @ $15.99
Also just a quick reminder that underneath each of the sales pictures is (in clear text) the sale information including the sale price, the savings, the item description and the sale expiration date. So if you’re unable to read what is on the picture (which I know can be problematic) the text is directly below the picture. So if you’re looking on your phone and can’t zoom in, or the sales date isn’t clear on the price tag, it’s written in the text just below the picture.
As always my Lego obsession continues, this time with the new editions of the Lego advent calendars.
These also hit on my hidden (?) nerd nerve as well, as I love Star Wars, the Marvel Universe and certainly have a soft spot of the Harry Potter movies I’ve seen. (I think I’ve only seen the first 4 or 5? I really enjoyed them though!) I of course love Lego as most of you know, so perhaps I’ll make sure I have all 3 this year… I mean why not right?
So I picked up one of those Pizza Romano frozen pizzas last to test out, and tonight was the night.
Mondays are usually a low impact cooking night as we’re busy with work and I’m busy with the blog, and we had some “fun” plumbing issues to deal with today as well so… We went with easy, and I figured it’d be a great time to sample this pizza and let you know what I thought. The comments from everyone were pretty mixed, and after trying it I can see a little bit from both sides.
The box says to cook @ 425 for 18-23 mins on a pizza sheet on the second lowest rack. I think I had ours set on the 3rd?
It seemed to cook up properly and after about 22 minutes I took it out of the oven and let it sit for a few minutes.
It cut easily and as much as I was expecting the stuffed crust to be a gooey, cheesy mess all over the cutting board, it was not.
As far as I was concerned the pizza tasted fine, though I’ll agree with Heather (who commented on this post) that it didn’t really have a “wow” factor to it. The sauce was good, and there was enough of it to not make the pizza taste dry but overall it was kind of… Like frozen pizza. I wasn’t disappointed by it, but wasn’t blown away by it either.
I also agree that the crust was kind of doughy (as did Melissa P) and didn’t cook as evenly as the toppings, while I certainly noticed it I wasn’t turned off by it.
I would like to try what a reader Ruan recommended on this post, and try it on the grill with pizza stones, that sounds like a good idea. Anyone else tried this??
Anyhow, I liked it but I’ll have to try it again to figure out if it’s worthy of the freezer space. I mean, I certainly don’t think I was loving it as much as Ewok was loving the Hydrangea cuttings.
The way he nibbles at those clipping makes him look like he’s eating a huge ice cream cone, and I find it hilarious. (He of course wouldn’t pose properly once I pointed the camera at him…)
That seems like a good place to leave you folks. Enjoy the sales, and as always.
Stay Calm and Costco on!

As we’re easing into Fall 2021 and the potential 4th 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!

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.

Have you tried the Instant Light BBQ grills (disposable). What are your thoughts- pros and cons. Thanks for all the effort and time you put into this Blog…much appreciated.
I’ve tried it and was very impressed with it. Started very easily and gave off a lot of heat, even in windy weather by the lake. Def recommend it for the price.
Hi Carmel, thank you very much for reading and supporting! While I haven’t tried the ZIP instant light grill I did buy one to put in my emergency kit, so I can’t really speak to how good/bad it is. I’ll put the feelers out on the weekend post though and see if anyone has used them!
Thank you once again — some new to us products I tried this past weekend were the already made – heat for 90 seconds in the microwave, breakfast sandwich – English muffin with egg, bacon and cheese – comes in handy for early morning appointments and trying to get there on time — also a friend made my the Angus beef burger – amazing – so picked up a case – so many uses for it = hamburgers, pasta sauce, easy tacos — also in the bakery section – they had a package of 20 Hazlenut Filled Crepes – no need to keep in fridge – would be easy to send in a lunch bucket or your own pick me up treat – all individually wrapped — and the books – who can walk by the books — not me – have medical appts coming up – great to grab and read while waiting = I picked up the book by Duchess S. Ferguson – cannot wait to read it!!! All for now —
Oh wow Marcia, you’ve been busy!
I was curious about the breakfast sandwiches, so that’s great that you enjoy them. I rarely have time for breakfast these days, so having that option would be great. The burgers sound good as well, though I usually grab beef from our local grocery. That’s good stuff!
Stay safe Marcia, thank you for reading and commenting!
I went today to get Cerave moisturing cream which was on here as $10 off for executive members but when I went to pay, they did not accept the sale price with $10 off saying they recognize prices that were advertised on the coupons not any other sites created by anybody else other than Costco. Today was supposed to be the last day to purchase this item. I am wondering if anybody experienced similar problem that I did. Thank you.

Is the 10.00 off coupon for the CeraVue cream correct ?? it is not in the Executive Flyer ?
Hi Dawn, it was available in my warehouse (Kingston, ON>) yes.

Thanks for the review of the breakfast sandwiches. I’ve looked at them a few times and wondered if I should try them.

Hi Bonnie, these pictures are taken at the Kingston, ON. location
