They would be better if you didn't have to buy ~60 at a time!

I believe they are branded Hebrew National dogs, so I keep on buying HNs at the grocery store.




Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Milk
Cheese (their sharp cheddar is very respectable)
Thick cut bacon
Wool socks
Button down shirts
Ibuprofen
Butter (better than what costs 2x as much at the supermarket)
Toilet paper
Pork loins/pork chops
Pork shoulder
Whole bean coffee (Guatemalan is my favorite)
Gasoline
Bottled water

Lots of other things we get. It's not always my personal favorite, but I can't recall having a Kirkland branded product that was bad.

Their birthday cakes are a great deal. Their other baked goods are pretty good. I miss the carne asada at the cafe, those were huge, cheap and extremely tasty. Pizza and chicken bakes are a steal.

This last week was kind of rough. For me it's employment and benefits.

The Pacific Bold K-cups are an absolute favorite of mine. I'm also partial to the the 3lb bag of tortilla chips and the chicken tenderloins.



Hater of fun since 2001!

That Sahale nut mixture was insanely good and last time I was there they didn't have it. The normal width toilet paper is worth the price of the membership alone.

we buy quite a bit there. My wife had a Safeway butcher as a client and he strait up told me their meats were far superior. usually just bulk name brands like AA energizer for duracell, whatever is cheaper. we do get their flushable personal wipes. Started with those when the kids were babies and i got spoiled by them.

the Kirkland brand 18 year scotch is actually Macallan 18 year. they had struck a deal with Macallan some decade+ earlier to buy some insane quantity of their liquid gold and low and behold you can get it for a redonk discount vs macallan branded.

we also get their kirkland dye free laundry soap since my daughter has sensitive skin only thing we found that doesn't give her a rash.

and they carry Rolex and Omega as well as several other brands. i also use them for tires

i didn't get on board as a shareholder until 73$ a share. its been a winner.

I think he means the cooked dogs at the food counter. $1.50 for a jumbo dog and a pop.

used to buy diapers and wipes, both handled well. Got a TV for 300 less than it was on amazon. My dog loves the dog food, I haven't had it, so I have to take his word. My problem is go in for milk and eggs, leave with a TV, car battery and set of tires, all at a good price of course.

I really like the frozen Kirkland Italian Sausage Lasagna, as well as the Kirkland Smoked Salmon and bacon. Their gas is not only cheap, it meets Top Tier fuel standards. Their undershirts are very inexpensive, really thick and well made. The best value in beef is the USDA Prime sirloin at $9.00/lb.

Did not know about those. Could be very addictive.

The Kirkland frozen lasagnas are really really good. Pizza. Polish dogs. Rotisserie chicken (both fresh and the rotisserie chicken that comes vacuum packed). Meat. Fish.

Man I could keep going.

They got rid of Polish sausage a while back, maybe around the end of 2016? Hot dog is the only option now w/ the drink.

My favorite thing at Costco is probably the gas.


Not where I live. Both are still available.

Hmm, those food court employees lied to me or are misinformed. They told me Polish sausage was discontinued chain-wide and chili was added.

They also discontinued the big chocolate & almond dipped ice cream bars about two years ago. Does anyone else still have those in your area?

One thing I used to buy constantly and miss now are the calamari steaks.

Costco is successful because it puts products on the racks and in the coolers that sell fast. If not, it's gone.

Price Club wanted to carry products that sold at an 8% markup in 7 days, and paid for them in 30 days.
