because there are just two of us at home now, we have had to scale back on what we buy so we can use it up; my frequent buys are...

A rotisserie chicken, the kale-broccoli bagged salad, bagels. Kirkland canned tuna, Kirkland laundry detergent pods, paper towels, toilet tissue, and facial tissues. Cascade pacs, and the Kirkland household wipes (I won't be without these). Spinach salad, eggs, the individually wrapped squares of cheese in the big bag, peanut butter, bottled water, Healthy Choice fudge bars, Kirkland bacon. Ground beef. In the fall the bakery will start making the loaves of pumpkin bread, etc. 3 different loaves in a pkg....love these. Vitamins.

Eyeglasses, umbrellas, beach chairs, cookware.....no department is unscathed when I go to Costco! Too much more that I can't remember now...and the frozen yogurt on your way out.

I don't purchase a lot of produce there because family has left home and I would rather purchase smaller amounts at Farmer's Market. We also do not eat a lot of meat but everyone says it is wonderful. I keep a Costco list ongoing and go to the warehouse about every 10 days or so.

Just got back from there this morning

picked up my glasses, can't beat $50 for the frames and under $200 for progressives, high index

raspberries are really good today, of course a chicken

I can't remember the last time I roasted one,

Another vote for pizza here. We also purcahse their pesto for convenience. I prefer mine home-made, but when in a crunch, love to use theirs. And another second on the ravioli.

The best food item I ever purchased was a Boston Cream Pie. OMG! It was not only huge, but was made by the pastry gods. Unfortunately, they don't contract for them but once every 2 years or so. I'm always on the lookout for one of these!

We just moved from SoCal to another state. The produce products at the Costcos in our neck of the woods in SoCal were good for nothing: picked too early; lots of cold storage; very, very little taste. I haven't accompanied DH to the Costco here to check out the produce yet, but will have to do that soon.

Is this the stuff that comes in a 2 pack with the built in slicer? I rarely hear people applaud plastic wrap (because it stinks) but my SIL loves this Costco one.

Jack, I got my eyes examined at Costco and was very impressed at how thorough the doctor was, not to mention how quickly I was able to get an after work appointment. My previous doctor was at a mill, but it was convenient.

Just bought the best looking outdoor lighting to replace our 30year old lights that were looking quite sad. Look great on the house. Love their Basil Pesto Tilapia, their cheese pizza for $10,large box of Outshine Ice fruit bars(4 boxes) ,Jimmy Dean Breakfast Delight sandwiches made with turkey sausage, egg whites and cheese (my husband loves theses), the dark chocolate coconut chunks, their pumpkin pies during the holidays, their hard boiled peeled eggs (for 18 to a package for $3.79, I wouldn't ever bother to hard boil them myself and peel them again), big packages of batteries and toilet paper.
