We bought $15 worth of tilapia yesterday. It broke out to 5 meals. We usually spend $6-10 per meal on tilapia.

We have had a Costco membership for the past 6 years. We buy our staples (milk, eggs, butter, meat, toilet paper) from there as it is MUCH cheaper than regular grocery stores.


Milk, for example, is $2.71/gal. At the grocery store, it's $3.60/gal. Eggs are $2.75/1.5 doz for the top of the line 'brand' that you'd pay $3.50 for a dozen at the grocery store.

So you are (were) one of those damned Canadians making our Costco a goddamned nightmare?

They probably dont have the right kind of dog food. Most box stores just sell the cheap stuff.



Two of their dog food brands (at least) have an A rating, I used to buy Nutro but switched to Kirkland brand because its rated better and its far cheaper.

Ditto, Nutro Lamb Large Breed, its also all we will use as its what is recommended by our vet and kennel club.

Kirkland uses too much beat pulp in their dog foods, it slows down metabolisms which isnt good for large dogs who tend to get over weight easily.

Uh, no. We lived 5 minutes from Costco when we lived in BC. If we ever went to Costco in WA, we'd always go to Burlington.

Why Burlington??

There's one in Bellingham, ya know? lol

(And yes, I'm from the AREA around Burlington ) You're just wasting gas driving 30 minutes further south...

Because I have family in Sedro-Woolley and Anacortes?

Their HS band would show up at competitions against us all the time. Still one of the funniest-named places I've ever seen.
