I'm in the same boat. I live a few miles away from Costco that is really never busy. The card checkers are always asking me if I need a cart when I just roll in there for some vodka and a dog.

Went to the 'co for some dog food. Left with $150 worth of stuff because lol @ only buying one thing. Got one of those pre-made Shepard's pie, so now we have dinner for two for three days.

I made a pilgrimage yesterday and one of the samples being given out was literally just a hunk of fried cheese. It was gobsmackingly delicious.

When I went on Saturday there were no samples being given out. It was one of my fastest and easiest trips to Costco ever, despite it being a weekend.

MisterOblivious posted:Protein bar chat: Hell yeah, the coupon works on their 2-day shipping online grocery orders as well. Bought 3 boxes of these a few months back for slightly `healthier` snacks (as opposed to buying chips/crackers and grazing) and I was due for another re-up. Saved $18 buying 3 more boxes which felt really good. My family digs the brownie, cookie dough, and especially chocolate peanut butter ones. Another awesome snack they have online is their dried apricots, with nothing added to them. They are fantastic and I think I'm a month into the 3lb bag, close to half through, no texture or taste problems. PBUC.

I stopped at a rest area on my way home (safety, then savings!) from an out of town meeting to confirm the price was actually true. Then I picked up six boxes on my way home. Can't beat $11.99! Thankfully my store started carrying the new variety packs as well because those are amazing. I think nine boxes total is enough for now.

What's the shelf life on those protein bars? I hardly ever buy them because of the cost but that's a pretty good deal.
|
# ? Apr 9, 2018 22:04 |
|
The official shelf life is 1 year, but that said, they are pretty low moisture bars and will last significantly longer than that although you will be able to taste the difference in freshness as time passes

off work today, made a run to the 'co with my mother-in-law highlights: a shitload of peanuts for $5, jelly beans, an enormous cake for an office birthday party for $16, two great looking chuck roasts for $32, san marzano whole peeled tomatoes for $6, and two san marzano tomato pastes for $4 just trimmed all the fat off one of the chuck roasts and popped it into a sous vide bath

the costco in gypsum, CO is amazing. I was one of maybe 10 customers in the whole store. I longingly gazed at about $5000 worth of poo poo in the center aisles before leaving with $20 in food. I also got two (2) dogs on the way out the door and now my blood tingles from all the sodium. I expect to start speaking in tongues at any moment

Mustached Demon posted:Protein shake chat: You can also use the bagged whey mix, though that likely needs a premix with some milk or water before dumping coffee into it, unless you love lumps. Protein bar + protein coffee should serve ya fine in the morning. Make a little cup of Coach's Oats to really fill you up if youre not carb sensitive

I love the macros of the Kirkland protein bars, and the taste certainly isn’t offensive, but they never really sate me. I’m intrigued by the 10 carb bar that was mentioned up thread, I’ll have to give it a shot!

However said to microwave the bars for a few seconds was spot on.

poo poo that's a good deal. 21g protein for 60 cents a bar. I just bought two boxes to try all the flavors along with a rotisserie chicken, bag of avacados, blackberries and a bigass box of that Kodiak pancake mix. And a hotdog.
