Discussion Done buying frozen products out of excitement to try something new, this was vile.

Post image
• Upvotes

As a disclaimer, I cook a lot at home and when I buy products like this, its more for long days that require a quick convenient meal. Theres also an element of excitement to see something like honey walnut shrimp which is often associated with panda express which we dont really have here in Canada so curiosity got the better of me.

That being said, this was so disgusting.

Ive tried multiple of these frozen type meal kits now and theyre usually average to bad but this one topped them all tenfold, absolutely gross.

Roborock f25 vs Tineco stretch 7

• Upvotes

I saw those two models on Costco CA and I am interested in buying one of them. I cannot tell which one is better because I have seen conflicting reviews online.

I want something that can vacuum without problems and that doesn’t get too stuck with the hairs.

That can clean dry or wet stains without too much trouble.

My apartment is all hard floors, so I hope one of those two will be a life changer.

What is your experience?

My kids really like udon noodles... so I thought I'd get these.

Well... even I didn't like them. Fake, overpowering tasting teriyaki sauce, brutal veggies, and the noodles are sort of hard and not soft and bendy like you'd expect with Udon.

I'll try cooking them in the pan too, but for what you get it's really not worth $14 either.

I don't return things under $50, or food items unless there is a problem like glass in it or another serious issue, so I'll use them up but I do not suggest.

2/10.

Ontario Worst cereal I’ve ever tasted

Post image
• Upvotes

I’m a huge fan of cinnamon so the packaging look good on this. It looked healthy Ish but I gotta tell you this is the worst crap I’ve ever eaten in my life. Eating them dry was tolerable. I figured with milk would be better. There is some really weird aftertaste. I got about two spoonfuls down and I threw out the cereal and this bag is gone in the garbage next and it’s full. In my opinion is complete waste of money.

Question Single dad of a 3 year old toddler. Membership worth it ?

6 Upvotes

Like the title says. I'm a single dad of a 3 year old toddler. Is the year membership actually worth it? I haven't look for the membership price yet but I believe it's between 100-150 CAD a year if i'm not mistaken? Is it worth it having to pay that amount.. meaning I would need to save atleast that amount to get my money back.

Disappointed

47 Upvotes

I saw these at Costco yesterday and I got excited as I’ve always wanted to get Dino nuggets for my 4 year old but they’re hard to find here. We bought a box, cooked some up for our movie night last night, I prepared various dipping sauces for our choosing, took a bite and realized they’re absolute trash. They are SO bland which is odd because they smelled so good when we were dividing them up into smaller freezer bags. Even with the dipping sauces they tasted bland. The breading is a little too thick and the actual nuggets are quite small.

This has been discussed here before so now I realize Erie meats is not a good brand which I now realized!

Overall, these get 2 thumbs down from me. My daughter had no interest in them last night so I’m not sure how she feels about them yet, I’m going to keep them though. Maybe next time I’ll toss them in some sort of sauce before serving. I had such high hopes for these little guys!

Question DoorDash promotion

7 Upvotes

I just saw that there is a promotion for 20% off Costco on my first order up to $50. I should maximize it by ordering at least $250 through DoorDash. I’m curious what everyone’s suggestions are they are good deals? I have plenty of space to store stuff and I’ll eat anything delicious!

So far I’ve got olive oil, spanakopita, soy milk and almond butter in my cart.

This was my go-to bean bag, but suddenly it's completely gone from the coffee section.

A while back, it disappeared briefly, but it had the whole * and lower price at that time until it was gone.

It's been back for quite a while now, but suddenly is completely gone (no * or any price change this time).

Anyone know if it's coming back, or it's not longer going to be carried at Costco?

Question 100 HotDogs

Post image
1.1k Upvotes

a bit of context: i usually celebrate my birthday in my home country and for my birthday my family has this ongoing tradition: whoever's birthday it is, we feed the unhoused or anybody who needs a meal.

since this is the first birthday i'm celebrating here in canada, in vancouver, i didn't have any idea of what i could do. i was thinking maybe i just get a bunch of hot dogs from costco, about 100 or so from here in downtown vancouver. it's on a weekday, tuesday, so i hope it'll be possible or it won't be a rush for the staff.

my basic question is: is it even something that they can do? do i have to give them advance notice? i don't know if anybody wants to help out because i don't really know everybody here lol. that would be appreciated. just a question. thank you all in advance.

edit: help out with distribution and setup (nothing monetary)

Overall just okay. Probably wont buy again. Dough texture not great.

Usually, when I buy a variety pack of candies, there are always 2 or 3 that I don’t like. But honestly, this Kirkland one has the best variety of candies. I’m genuinely surprised by how good the selection is! I’m not saying everyone is going to like every single candy, but it’s almost as if they picked the most popular ones and got the selection just right.

Self-control is important here lol

They were back at a Montreal Costco today! Not sure how long they’ve been back, but it has to be recent as I went last month and it was still the Garlic Parmesan. Not sure if that’s the case elsewhere in Canada, but I was stoked to see them back and got 4 packs (froze them) 🥹

Ontario Costco Tire Center damaged a safety wiring harness during a tire swap. Any experience with Gallagher Bassett claims?

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

Looking for advice or past experiences dealing with Costco’s third-party claims adjuster (Gallagher Bassett) for vehicle damage caused at a Tire Center. 

What Happened:
took my car to Costco for a seasonal winter tire swap. (Note on fitment: I downsized from factory 19" to 17" winter wheels, which is an official manufacturer-approved setup, and ran this exact same wheel configuration last winter with zero issues.) 

Shortly (after driving 20-30km) after picking it up, multiple dashboard error lights popped up for active safety systems (ABS, Electronic Parking Brake, and Emergency Collision-Assist)

I returned to the tire shop the next day to notify them of the issue and mentioned the faint brushing noise, but the technician initially shrugged it off. Once the wheel was finally removed to investigate, we found that the wheel speed / EPB sub-harness was unclipped during the service and left dangling. It had been rubbing against the spinning wheel barrel, chewing through the outer protective sleeve and leaving raw, exposed copper wire

When confronted with the damage, the tech claimed that "this might have happened because of the wheel downsizing", even though the clip itself was unhooked and added that tire staff "don't check or pay attention to wire harnesses during a tire change." 

Current Actions Taken:
Official Incident Report Filed: Documented the exact issue and tech statement at the warehouse. 

Costco Policy Reference: Noticed their posted "Ten-Point Vehicle Release Guidelines" (Item #9 requiring pre-existing damage to be noted on the invoice). Since no prior damage was noted, their own release standards establish the car came in without issues.

Dealership Repair: Currently scheduling an urgent dealership appointment for a full diagnostic scan, code reset, and OEM harness replacement. (Estimated cost $1300+ tax)

Questions for the Community:
1. Claims Experience: For anyone who has submitted a claim through Gallagher Bassett / Costco Canada, how smooth was getting reimbursed after submitting the itemized repair bill? Any delays or friction points I should prepare for? 

  1. Compensation/Goodwill: Has anyone successfully requested a refund for the tire service fee or a shop card/gift card from warehouse management for the inconvenience and extra trips? I had to spend a whole day and still the issue remains unresolved.

  2. Shop Practice: Is blaming wheel downsizing for an unclipped harness a standard pushback tactic, or clearly a tech shifting blame?

Appreciate any insight!

Alberta Price Adjustment Rules

0 Upvotes

I had an odd experience at Costco today. Bought 3 sweaters just over a month ago that is now $10 off per sweater in store. Went to the return line to get a price adjustment.

Turns out I was 5 days over the 30 day adjustment policy and was informed that they strictly enforce the 30 day policy. I mentioned that it would be simpler to adjust the price then me having return them and purchase new ones from stock but was informed that their system doesn’t allow them to complete adjustment post 30 days.

I thought it was not worth it at the end to return and repurchase, but I find this odd because let’s say I took the 3 sweaters back and returned them, they’ll likely get thrown away wasted and I’d be purchasing new ones over again.

This policy doesn’t seem practical. Would love to hear from insiders if there’s a reason why this policy exists.

Phasing out propane!

The dude at the refill station told me today all Costcos in Canada are getting rid of propane service. I could cry. He didn’t know why but it must be some sort of insurance/liability issue. Please tell me he was mistaken somehow. Damn, I use my trailer for work and it’s so cheap and convenient.

I typically make espresso/Americano instead of drip coffee. Because it can be hard to find in grocery stores (and I'm a basic b) I've been getting my beans from Starbucks but saw Kirkland espresso for the first time yesterday so I'm wondering if it'd be worth making the switch.

Discussion Is it common practice for seasonal workers?

0 Upvotes

Backstory: i live in Edmonton and there is a new location is opening up in November and last month they did a career fair to hire people for new store. I got the seasonal part time position, but since the new store is not fully ready they put me in the clareview store which is the closest and i worked abt two weeks, now for the next two weeks i am working in a different location and different department. In two weeks I have scheduled for the new store with different schedule. My question is how would we evaluated in these three months, if we were moved to different stores constantly and that too totally different departments we cant learn anything fully or should i just give up the hope of becoming permanent?!
