First time going back to a costco in quite a while and I'm disappointed that they don't serve/provide onions with the hotdogs any more. Rotisserie chicken is still good.

Speaking of rotisserie chicken, I saw they also added cooked/ready to serve BBQ ribs. Anybody try this yet?

StylinRed 11-07-2020 08:33 AM

They've had it for awhile, my father likes em, I haven't tried

For you coffee geeks out there, both newbies and addicts, some Costco locations have the Braun K9170SI on sale for $149.99. It's a multi-brew coffee maker capable of brewing coffee a variety of ways, and is SCA certified. A great buy and alternative to the Technivorm Moccamaster at less than half the price. This unit is regularly $265 or so.

Anyone seen these tire totes at a local costco?

Couple years ago sure but not the last 3-4 years

Hehe 11-09-2020 09:30 PM

Any know which Costco still has the Kirkland Pet Bed?

I think the one I have has reached the limit of its service life. Kitties love them... so, I want to replace it with the same one.

Was at Surrey Costco and they didn't have it anymore.

Holy cow.. what's happening at Costco Willingdon? Around 10am. I couldn't even find a spot to park. I drove in circled a few time and left ..

The demographic which goes to that location is in panic mode

TouringTeg 11-10-2020 10:26 AM

Not surprised especially with the new restrictions in the lower mainland.

Stocking up to reduce your trips out for shopping feels like one of the few things you have control over. We stocked up on non-perishables last week so we don't have to go to Costco for a while.

Not so fast... Langley was obscenely busy yesterday as well.

Hondaracer 11-10-2020 12:15 PM

Yea I dunno which one is worse lol

bcrdukes 11-10-2020 12:17 PM

People are stocking up in anticipation for the 5 minutes of snow forecasted. It's the end of the world.

The ribs that are pre-marinated self baked is 2x better at half the price. More tender and juicy.

Hondaracer 11-10-2020 01:21 PM

The full rack of ribs? They are great with the honey chipotle marinade etc

However the downside of those ones are they need to cook for 2 hours

Richmond and Downtown Costco's seem to be out of TP again.

I haven't seen TP at the Willingdon Costco in weeks

MG1 11-10-2020 09:24 PM

So many at 8:00 am. Get your grandparents to go at 8:00 am during seniors' hour, or go at 9:00. If the number of seniors in the warehouse is low, they let regular customers in early. I think they make the call at 8:30 am.

I go to the Brighton Avenue location and they have lots there in the mornings. I haven't been to the Willingdon location in a couple of days, but when I was, they had a shitload in stock. Could they sell out that quickly?

Honestly, I have not purchased toilet paper in a long ass time. This pandemic is not making me shit more............. Paper towels I can see running out, because you need to disinfect and whatnot, but toilet paper?

VR6GTI 11-11-2020 05:26 AM

You can always order TP online. Buy 3 cases be good for a long time

I saw and bought TP there just last week.

MG1 11-11-2020 07:48 AM

I’m at Willingdon Costco right now. 20 pallets of TP. Each pallet is 6 feet high. I’ll upload pics later when I get home. It’s amazing. A wall full of TP and paper towels.

As promised............ Kleenex section to the left and bottled water to the right.

I broke down and purchased those hazelnut cream filled donut things. Not bad at all. Not as good as Angel Doughnuts from Duffin's, but not bad. Everytime I see those things, the produced date is always the day before and the expiry is one day after. W - T - F ?

Oh, Bailley's Original Irish Cream creamers were on sale. They're non alcoholic, but what the hell. I'll try anything once. It says on the bottles, made with real cream. 2 x 1 Litre bottles for $7.99.

WTF is up with these lineups again? Did something change?

For the last few weeks there hasn't been any lineups to get into the Willingdon Costco, I tried going the last 2 days and both the Production Way and Willingdon locations had long ass lineups at friggin' 2 in the afternoon on a weekday.

This have to do with the new restrictions? I just drove on past and said fuck it, not about to lineup in the cold and rain for coconut water and toilet paper :lol

Just typical Vancouver behavior, get some troubling news and everyone goes into every man for himself hoarding mode.
