Hello folks and welcome back to the Costco weekend sales update!
I feel like it was just Monday and I blinked and it’s Friday, yikes the time does fly!
Speaking of flying things The Dynatrap Mosquito traps were available today.
Now I don’t know if you’re unlucky like myself, but I must have the most delicious blood around because those little buggers can sniff me out before anyone else… Usually we have citronella candles out, and likely will again this year I was curious about these however. My worry is that all the other flying creatures that don’t want to eat me alive might fly in and get killed, I certainly don’t want any dead moths or bees on my hands. Has anyone used this or something similar??
As excited as the Mozzies are about feasting upon me I was very excited to see these little buds popping out of the ground this morning!
They’re a little tough to see but there’s a big bunch of ’em starting to pop up. I know it’s a little early to get too excited about it as they have a ways to go, but I really can’t wait to see all of them!
In the mean time we have these beautiful tulips to look at.
Big thanks to Diane the flower lady for making sure there’s always bunches and bunches of colorful tulips, always great to have a little chat too!
Unbeknownst to me, she mentioned that if you put a copper penny in the vase with your tulips, they’ll live longer… Who knew??? Not me, that’s who. But why is that?
According to the Teleflora Blog it’s…
Put a Penny in the Vase
This myth has some factual evidence to back it up. Copper is a fungicide, so adding a penny to the water in your vase helps protect your flowers from bacteria. This is similar to what florists do when they add little packets of antibacterial chemicals. It is also recommended that the penny be accompanied by an aspirin, which is acidic and helps water flow through your flowers.
Of course they also say that adding a few drops of Vodka to the water help to inhibit ethylene production slowing the wilting process… But I think I’ll save those drops for a martini, I need to slow my “wilting process” as well after all!
Speaking of wilting, your attention might be doing just that, so let’s look at a few sales.
UBIO LABS wireless charging car mount -$7.00 @ $26.99
Kellogg’s mini wheats 1.6kg -$2.00 @ $7.99
Dove fruit salad 20 x 107ml -$2.80 @ $7.99
LA-Z-BOY manager chair -$50.00 @ $189.99
Hostess Twinkies 9 x 113g -$2.00 @ $6.99
Actually I think it’s probably a lot of Twinkies Winston, then again seeing as I haven’t eaten one in… Likely over 3 decades so I think any Twinkie would look like a big Twinkie to me.
Twinkies aside usually anything with “MEXI” in the name catches my attention, so walking by this bright orange container certainly made me stop.
What could possibly go wrong here folks??? The only downside I see to this is eating 907 grams of a sour cream cheese dip in one sitting… What say you folks, have you tried this dangerous looking dip? Is it worth the risk of over-indulgence???
Dexter says “of course” and then winked at me.
I think he wants me to get it so he can try it out.
Well I think it’s bed time folks.
It was a long day & night at the restaurant and the morning is creeping up fast. So I’ll say Cory (I hope that’s how your name is spelled, if not I’m sorry!) it was great to serve you and your friends this evening in one of our little “fishing huts” this evening and hopefully I’ll be seeing you again!
And I’ll also say good night folks.
Stay safe and healthy!
Great news for those of you who are 60-64 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 second 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.
Newfoundland COVID-19 information
New Brunswick COVID-19 information
Nova Scotia COVID-19 information
So there you go, a little reading material for you.
Be kind, be safe and stay healthy!

Thank you! Have a great weekend.
Thank you Donna, I plan on it!
You stay safe and have a great one as well.
I have used this mosquito trap for the past 2 years. It seems to only trap mosquitos & lots of them. I still get some bites, but it would be far worse without it.
That’s great to hear Barb, I don’t want to harm any other flying friends… Just the evil Mosquitos.
Ok
Indeed!
Natrel butter was $2.95 at Costco Pointe Claire (Quebec) on Friday.
Oh that’s a great price Liz, what is the normal price there in Pointe Claire?
Oh crap. I just did a big post! Where did it go??🤬
Oh no!
Sorry Jan!!!
Also interested in hearing reviews of that Mexicali dip!
I’ve been avoiding going in but went 2x last week. I had a bunch of things in my cart online and couldn’t bring myself to pay so much extra so bit the bullet and went in. Got home and realized I forgot something … and my returns I’d been holding onto. 🙁 When Dad’s long-term care home asked me to get lotion for him and recommended one on sale at Costco, I was off again! At least I remembered my returns and the item I’d forgotten. 🙂
Thanks for your blog and for highlighting items for comments from others. Like you, there’s something about me that skeeters love! My friends love being around me in the summer because they know THEY are safe from the skeeters. 😉 Wish I could use a mosquito trap but have a tiny yard and most have to be so many feet away from buildings, people, etc. So my screened-in gazebo is my saviour for summer evenings.
Enjoy your early buds and beautiful tulips!
Run out and get the Trap – get 2 – best damn purchase we’ve ever made. Made last summer a relaxing, peaceful one without the pesky mesquittos!
Hahaha, you should work for their marketing team Aaron! Thank you, I think I will grab one when I’m back on Friday.
Cheers, stay safe!
Went back to Costco on Tuesday to check the normal price of butter (it varies between 4 and 5 dollars), but it was still on sale for 2.95 ……….. there was only unsalted left.
