Costco does have Business Delivery, but that quantity probably isn't what you are looking for. They are experimenting with home delivery through Google Express of everyday items like groceries to compete with Amazon Fresh. Currently this service is only in a limited amount of areas (I know San Francisco is included), but you can check out the site and see if it includes your town: https://www.google.com/shopping/express/?redirect=false#HomePlace:s=0&c=60&m=9090995&mall=SanFrancisco

Pick posted:Just take it back and tell them, they refund fairly. Nah. Already tossed it out. Marked it up as a lesson learned. Sometimes when you try new stuff, it just doesn't work out. I'd like to know the name brand of the tri-tip burgers and the chicken/wild rice bowls mentioned though. Gotta swing up to town tomorrow anyway so I can stand to grab some of them and get my eat on.

My Costco has stopped carrying two of my favorite staples: the fresh vegetarian stuffed grape leaves from the refrigerated section, and the big jars of Blue Hill Bay pickled herring. I used to stock up on those all the time! Once, the other Costco in town even had whole smoked whitefish from Blue Hill Bay, which was incredible. Unfortunately, I never saw it again at either location.

My mom loves that chicken alfredo. I might have to give it a whirl. We don't have deep dish or calzones I have a tiny convection oven though, so if they did have em, they might be too big to cook in the wee oven I have. Does anyone have any recommendations for frozen food (salmon patties, etc) or anything just "OMG AWESOME" that I need to try? Gonna feel kinda stupid going there for a bag of pretzel rolls and the chicken/wild rice bowls.

Stupid_Sexy_Flander posted:My mom loves that chicken alfredo. I might have to give it a whirl. I don't know if you've eaten the chicken alfredo before but the deli uses the same type of sauce base for the chicken alfredo and the mac and cheese. If you didn't like the taste of mac you might not like the chicken alfredo either.

Gonna get some poo poo for this but I hate the salmon burgers, however, the mahi burgers they have in the frozen section are fantastic. Different sauce, different texture, so delicious.

Stupid_Sexy_Flander posted:My mom loves that chicken alfredo. I might have to give it a whirl. The Cedarlane frozen bean & cheese burritos are good. I also like the Trident panko-breaded tilapia. Both make for excellent and relatively healthy quick meals, especially if you whip up a side of salad or veggies.

im still waiting for the cold case chicken tikka masala, supposedly it was a seasonal item that got replaced by all the pumpkin squash bullshit in the fall, and now its still not back. same thing happened to the frozen morroccan chicken a year ago. gently caress people who buy pumpkin squash soup in the fall and if youre one of those people i hope you get shot in the face you piece of poo poo.

Asked about the chicken and wild rice bowls, dude thought I was talking about dog food. I'm thinking they don't have it. They checked the computer at the front and apparently it's just not something in my area. Still managed to wander out after spending about 100$ though. gently caress that place adds up quickly.

If I'm under 150$ I consider that an efficient Costco run. Those tri tips man... Got one on sale for $14. There's meat fit for a king to last a week.

Our Costco has huge bags of frozen BibiGo wontons, dumplings, probably some other things I missed. You can microwave them but they taste way better after boiling them. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce (does Costco carry any good sauces?) and eat. A satisfying low calorie snack.

I couldn't believe nobody else posted about this, so I went through the 8 pages and searched for "salsa" and it didn't pop up. Am I the only person who has a membership for (almost) the sole reason of their mango & peach salsa? I think it's Santa Barbara who makes the stuff. I buy five jars every time I go in there.

Microwave them then pop them into a shallow pan with about half an inch of boiling water on the bottom, and they're the bestest. Also, they have this roti bread (I think Roti Paratha) that is frozen, and you fry it both sides on a dry pan for 2-3 minutes, and it's awesome. I use them for tacos.

I like the other salsa in the similar containers, the Garden Fresh Gourmet brand. It has a nice, fresh, cilantro-ey taste, with a medium heat from fresh jalapenos that isn't overpowering.

This is good to hear. I really really need an eye exam. Also the 10lb bag of chicken wings is an amazing get for 18 bucks. My friends and I will buy a bag and bake or fry them up on a Sunday for a great meal and they save us a ton of money vs going out
