What was your best "find"?

Just thought for fun we could share what was your best "find" at Costco. They are always know to carry great stuff and if you dont get it that day, you might NEVER see it again Or if you have a favorite thing that you always go and get and cant find anywhere else...share that as well


Ok so for one of my favorite things that you cannot find anywhere else except for costco...I absolutely love the broccoli salad. I always get so many compliments on it when I serve it at parties...YUMMO!

As for my favorite "find" : I got these really cool handmade scrapbook paper bundles....I am sure there are other great finds, but my mind is drawing a blank...

Lets hear them

well, it's not much of a "find" because they almost always have it... except for in the summer--- their chicken pot pie is AMAZING.
other favorites are the margherita pizza and at one point they carried this big bag of frozen fruit that had berries, melon, peaches, pineapple, and mango in it. and i can never find it anymore. but it was perfect for summer smoothie making...

I have to have their jarred roasted red peppers in my pantry at all times. They're not packed in oil which to me is a plus! They are sold 2 to a pack, and are awesome! No way could I get that many red peppers roasted myself for their price.

My best 'find' there was before Christmas a few years back. I got Lenox metalware serving bowls for $5 each! I totally loaded up my cart with those for my gift closet.

Ive never tried the pot pie, they are HUGE though, maybe once the kiddos get bigger and we start having family dinners then we can try it. My hubby loves all their ready made take and bake stuff...I love the chicken salad....

Oh that berry fruit blend sounds delicious! Ive seen the one with rasperries blueberries and blackberries, but not that one!

I will have to check out the red roasted peppers...

They always have this too: but I loooooove that Jacks Salsa! It is really reasonably priced too!

My greatest "find" was Nike sport watches for $9.99 ea, the retail tag inside said $59. They were a great gift! I wish I'd gotten myself more than one.
Another time there was clearanced womens Levi's for $8.97.
Okay - now I want to go to Costco.... must stay away this week!

Their CFL lightbulbs are an awesome buy - I picked up 10 60 watt equivalents for under $10. I just moved, and completely outfitted the new house in CFL's - regular bulbs, flood lights, and recessed lighting - for under $50, thanks to Costco.

Also, my memory foam mattress from Costco is incredible. It is so comfortable, and I can't feel when Mr. Lux moves around in bed or gets up. For a long time the dog was secretly sleeping at the bottom of the mattress, since I wouldn't feel him jump up.

Sorry, didn't see this until now. I found out when the dog leaped onto the bed and landed on my leg in the middle of the night, when I was fast asleep. I thought someone had grabbed me, and started SCREAMING. Of course, my husband woke up, and when we calmed down there was the dog, just looking at us like we were crazy.

The Kirkland brand paper towels - they make Bounty and the others look like toilet paper. Minced Garlic - large container for a really good price. Boneless Skinless Salmon - not Kirkland brand but it is very good and so much better than the stuff with bones & skin. And my favorite thing there Tyson's Wing's of Fire - they are hotter than heck but are really good.

A 10 lb bag of pancake mix for under $6. I think it makes 180 pancakes - you can't beat that!

Last Christmas they had Bare Escentuals makeup starter kits for $39. I hadn't seen them under $60, so that was a nice surprise. That's one of my few splurges.

Couldn't live without

I can't pass up the Michael Angelo's frozen Manicotti. It's already to pop in the oven. You get two for about 10-11 bucks and they are so, so good! I wish they carried more of the line.

It's as good as a restaurant. Also we buy all of our cheese cheaper there and the fresh pineapple chunks are wonderful. Things like garbage bags are much better priced here too.

DIAPERS! Generally they are cheaper unless there is an awesome sale somewhere.

I love their coffee! Nice strong taste, everyone always ask me: what kind of coffee is it?
And their spinach ravioli with garlic sauce(I know someone mentioned it before, but its great)
Best find was my bedroom furniture:quinn-size bed, two nightstands and 15-drawer dresser for about $1500.
