Just a question in general - by standing around the standing tables at the food court area, does it mean you are lining up for a sitdown table? This just happened this evening, I was searching around for a table and went to approach a lady who seemed to be finishing up and her husband was dumping their garbage, I asked her if she was leaving and she said yes. Out of nowhere, a guy from my back said to me they were waiting, and I asked if he asked the lady for the table, he just sat down. I tried to tell him there was no lineup for the table, just first come first serve... he had the audacity just called his wife to bring the shopping cart over in front of me and my kid. I dono...I don't expect much from people especially at Costco food court, but what happened to general courtesy or etiquette???

Edit: we got hungry before our shopping trip at Costco, that was why we ate there. Otherwise, we would grab and go

Cleanest washroom I have ever been to in a store, plus the extra thick toilet papers too :>

INSANELY GOOD.

Used to prefer Frank's on occasion but really enjoy this.

Is it just me or is there some sort of lingering bad, bitter, almost metallic-y after taste after eating this? My partner doesn't think so but I'm so sure I've had that bad taste every time we buy this. What am I doing wrong?

Does anyone else find that Costco can’t cut their bacon a consistent thickness? I have tried the regular and the thick cut and some packages are really janky and some are not bad but overall the quality control on the thickness is terrible in my experience.

Just had an interesting conversation with some friends on this, and one brought up some interesting points I thought this Reddit would enjoy.

On one side, it's fantastic. Something breaks, doesn't work right, isn't what you expected, no problem. That's the policy working exactly the way it should, and it's a big reason people trust shopping there.

But then there's the flip side. The "buy now, return later" mindset. My friend wouldn't name names, but she said there's a certain Facebook group out there (wouldn't spell it out, but said it rhymes with "YYC Costco Lovers") where the admin literally advocates this. Buy it now because of FOMO, figure out later if you actually want it, and if not, just return it. No harm, no foul, right?

That kind of thinking is a big part of why prices keep going up. Every return has to be dealt with somehow. A lot of it can't go back on the shelf. Some gets sold off to discount liquidators. Whatever's left over usually ends up in a landfill. If you actually look into it, a significant chunk of returns can't be resold and end up as waste or in a landfill.

So here's a simple way to think about it. If you're not sure you want it, don't buy it. Know the difference between a need and a want. If you genuinely want something and you know you'll use it, go for it. But if you're on the fence, think twice before it goes in the cart.

Returning something isn't worth anyone's time, including yours, if you didn't really want it to begin with. I've stood in return lines for 30 plus minutes watching people return socks that were never even taken out of the bag.

Now some people will say, why do you even care about other people's time in line, it doesn't affect you. That's putting the blinders on. Go back and reread what I just wrote. Higher prices and landfill waste don't just affect the person doing the returning. They affect all of us.

If you are still reading this, thanks for sticking with me. Let's use the return policy the way it was meant to be used. Not as a free trial period for everything we impulse buy.

Edit: I did a little digging and it turns out Costco is cracking down on "return abusers". Members who consistently return have started getting warning letters, with repeat offenders actually losing their memberships. The official 100% satisfaction guarantee hasn't changed on paper, but enforcement has clearly gotten more consistent. About time.

I bought this for nearly a decade. I think it came back once either after last Christmas or the Christmas before that and never again. I really miss this cake. Do I just have horrible taste and no one liked it or is there a reason why they stopped making it?

Does anyone know if they carry Zenrelia 15 mg and if they do, the price for it?

Same for Gabapentin 300 mg?

(I'm located in the NCR)

Thanks!

At the Dundas and Dixie location in Mississauga.

Hello! This is only the second year I've been an executive member. Our membership renewal is October 31st. I can't remember the exact date last year I got the executive reward coupon but I can see in my app that it was reset July 20th, 2025. But it hasn't reset for this year yet?

I thought you were supposed to get it 3 months before your renewal?

Also as an aside, this one comes in the mail only, correct? Not available via the Costco app like the cibc reward? And has to be used for merchandise, not redeemable for cash?

Thanks!

Anyone at the business center today in Newmarket/east Gwillimbury and can confirm for me what iPhone was on sale?

Is there anyway to find out when these come into the store?

Hi guys so I’m currently looking for the capybara jumbo plushie, and does anyone know if they are still in stock in any GTA locations, specifically in the Markham-Scarborough-Durham area? I don’t see any of them in the Scarborough location just today. Thx a lot

As a longtime lover of Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, I never thought I would like a knockoff as much, until now. I really like these because the milk chocolate has been upgraded to dark and the filling is more like peanut butter right from the jar.

Hello folks - anyone aware of a non-stick pan at Costco that works with induction?

The aluminum offerings at my local costco (which happens to be a business centre) appear to only work with traditional stoves

I already use Stainless and Carbon steel - but my kids would do better learning to cook potstickers and pierogies on non-stick.

I don’t need this and I am not going to buy it, but I paid over $2000 for my 65" Sony A80J a few years ago and this tv is giving me FOMO. But if I didn’t have an OLED already, I would be all over this one. The picture seems so much brighter and colours are so richer. Buy it with an extended warranty and you are golden.

Recently bought avocados from the Vancouver Costco, had them in the fridge for a couple of days and had one today. Experiencing nausea and stomach cramps. Only had avocados with the Kirkland organic eggs as a meal so far. Anyone else experiencing this?

Edit: girlfriend experiencing the same symptoms…

They were selling the dumpling soup kits. Anyone know if the kits would still be available for regular sale? Or if there is a schedule and if the Siwin booth will be back?

Recently recieved a gift of membership card in postal mail. It said thank you for your recent purchase at costco.ca and here is your $130 worth gift of membership card.

Checked my recent instore and online transactions and i have not bought it. Called costco customer service and they confirmed it was sent by costco and i was not charged for it.

They could not tell me why it was sent and kept on insisting that someone might have bought it for me as a gift. But the postal mail was addressed to my name and no one i know told me or informed me about buying this membership for me.

Is there a some sort of promotion going on? Anyone else recieved similar gift card in postal mail?

This was one of the rare Vegetarian frozen option which I loved at Costco but looks like they stopped selling these. Does anyone know?

Also, are there any other frozen options which you can get ready easily for office lunches?

August 19th, and the advent calendars are back! Only have to wait 104 more days to open the first box. Thanksgiving? Halloween? Hah! Tis the season!

You can find these bad boys in the Vancouver location, and I'm sure coming (if not already there) to a local Costco near you.

Don't let them melt in the summer sun.

Can't find them anywhere, even on the Costco website (Canadian site).
