At my Costco the diapers/wipes/formula is right by the pharmacy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-347167 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 13:06:40 +0000 keiki_mama 347167@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks @BabyBruins! I'll have to look into the Kirkland brand. Is the formula at your Costco located near the wipes/diapers as well? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-347163 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 13:05:47 +0000 keiki_mama 347163@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Alivoo01: I've tried that sorbet too! It's so yummy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-347153 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 13:04:03 +0000 Weagle 347153@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I looked into this a few months ago. Apparently it's good if you're not the type to haggle. And you don't mind being told which dealerships you can use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-347147 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 13:02:42 +0000 Alivoo01 347147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@duckduckkristen: lol! That's awesome a teenager told y'all were the coolest parents ever!</p> <p>We buy all sorts of paper goods, Odwalla juices, a variety of fruits, paper plates, plastic silverware, solo cups, and variety of food for parties. They have this sorbet that's situated inside a fruit that's pretty darn good. The portion looks small, but there's actually quite a bit of sorbet in it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-347129 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 12:57:36 +0000 BabyBruins 347129@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JustlikeHeaven: I give the baby Kirkland formula and its fine. We did regular Enfamil when I first started supplementing with formula (around 6 months) bc its what we got from the hospital. When that ran out, I started doing the Kirkland brand and we had no issues. @keiki_mama: if you compare ingredients list from Kirkland and Enfamil, they are basically the same.<br /> We also get Kirkland diapers and wipes from Costco. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-346502 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 10:21:37 +0000 keiki_mama 346502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JustlikeHeaven: See, this gives me a reason to go to Costco this weekend to do "research" on formula (ahem, eat samples and walk around mindlessly). I expected to find formula near the diapers and wipes but I've never seen it. I should probably ask someone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-346498 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 10:19:53 +0000 keiki_mama 346498@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Evita: I like your husband's naughty list :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-346488 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 10:17:42 +0000 DpeachLu 346488@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@keiki_mama: Really? The costco's in San Diego have a couple different types of enfamil, they have a kirkland brand that is suuuuper cheap (I havent dared trying it out with dd though - but every time I look at the price im like uuuuhhhhh) and they also have similac and similac sensitive which is what we buy. The cans are bigger than the big cans at Target and cost the same! I believe I have seen them online as well. They are right next to the diapers and the wipes at our Costco. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-345893 Thu, 18 Oct 2012 00:06:51 +0000 SAHM0811 345893@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: ooooh cool thanks!

The big bag by Tyson? We went to two different Costco's this month and couldn't find that bag anymore! DH and DD loved 'em. The only nuggets we find now are dinosaur-shaped. Anyone know if they are good?</p> <p>At Costco we usually get:<br /> - Gas<br /> - Dove body wash<br /> - Santa Barbara Peach Mango Salsa<br /> - Kirkland muffins (sooo good &amp; freeze well too)<br /> - fresh fruit<br /> - Silk Soymilk + DHA<br /> - Multigrain Cheerios<br /> - toilet paper and paper towels </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-345838 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 23:14:24 +0000 Baby Boy Mom 345838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The things we always get are: bread, bagels, lettuce, cucumbers, cheddar cheese and tortilla chips. Then there are randoms that change every time. I have major guilt about our carbon footprint since all that stuff is shipped from the US, but there's no where else to get them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-345808 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 22:38:57 +0000 Dapple Grey 345808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think my favorite part of Costco is the large cup of soft serve frozen yogurt from their little eatery for $ 1.30 !</p> <p>Typical Basics Costco Run:</p> <p>-Feta Cheese<br /> -Turkey/pinapple Meatballs<br /> -Natures Domain Grain Free Dog food<br /> -Vita Rain ( Kirkland Vitamin water/SOBE ripoff)<br /> -Ground Beef<br /> -Ground Turkey<br /> -Salmon<br /> -Chicken salad<br /> -Hunk of whatever cheese I'm feelin<br /> -Shrimp<br /> -Frozen Mixed Berries<br /> -Frozen Veggies</p> <p>The Naughty Husband List:<br /> -Croissants<br /> -Brownies<br /> -Cookies ( Bakery Choco-Chip)<br /> -Lays Chip mini bag multi-pack<br /> -Beef Jerkey<br /> -Capri Suns </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-buy-at-costco/page/2#post-345780 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 22:23:23 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 345780@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Costco has a super cute girls "retro" toy kitchen that would make an awesome Christmas present!
