Costco Savings Dec 22, 2025 – Jan 19, 2026
Cocoa in full force! I love the way the quinoa is bound together in a thin shell of chocolate that lends itself to a light and airy bite.
The sea salt counters the slightly sweet taste of the chocolate. This mixture is a match made in heaven and deserve a second or third bite!
NONE! These little quinoa morsels are delectable and the slight downside is to my wallet when I bought 2 bags in 1 go!
My first memory of these were on an airplane. The airplane snack foods to Costco pipeline needs to be investigated but once I found a bag of these on the shelves, I simply had to grab two! If you want a fun snack that goes well with some morning coffee or afternoon tea, then I suggest you give these a try.
I’ve been baking a Thanksgiving turkey every year for almost 20 years. This is what I made this year.
Gourmia XL is available at Costco ($159.99 as of December 5, 2025)
I still remember the first time I stepped into Costco with adult eyes. The bounty. The sheer volume of stuff. Rows and rows of items that reach from the ground to the high heavens. The excess brings my heart so much joy. Families and friends walking down each row examining the new items and each others’ carts. Costco is truly an amazing place.
It is this time of the year that I try my best to remind myself of the privileges that I have been given – being born in the U.S., access to public education, and in relatively good health. Although Costco can be a place of sheer gluttony and the pinnacle of consumerism, I believe that it can also be used for good. Got a spare roll or two of TP? Picked up an extra chicken? Got a spare croissant…or 10?
When buying in bulk, especially during this time of thanks and giving, I encourage myself and everyone that lends their eyeballs to this post to think about your family and neighbors. If you’re going on a run anyways, could your neighbor with the newborn use some extra diapers? Could you split your frozen chicken breast with the bodybuilder down the hall? God knows that you can’t or shouldn’t eat the pumpkin pie all by yourself.
So with all the gratitude and love in my heart, I am thankful to you readers, my family, friends, and Costco this Thanksgiving season. Check in on those around you and I wish you all a wonderful, safe, and bountiful Thanksgiving.
Cheers,
Matt

If you’re an avid vegetable consumer and you enjoy subzero temperatures, you may find yourself often perusing inside the massive refrigerator unit that houses mushrooms, peppers, cucumbers, and so on. If you’re also like me and enjoy the occasional veggie stir fry, you may have found these plastic containers of Baby Bok Choy. Here’s the secret, this is NOT a good deal.
At my local Costco, 2 pounds of Baby Bok Choy can range from $8-$10. As a lover of all things Costco, I must confess that you will find MUCH better deals at your local Asian/Chinese grocery stores. Commonly known as “Siu Tong Choy” (Cantonese/Chinese), these bad boys can usually be found for $2-$3 a pound and are usually in much better condition. You’re paying an extra $2-$3 for the plastic box! If you can survive the frigid temperatures of a Costco walk-in fridge, then I have full confidence that you will be fine navigating an Asian grocery store. Just remember to smile, be polite, buy a stainless steel Chinese Chef Knife (“Choy Doh”/Translation: Vegetable Knife), and have confidence.
Like most suggestions, your mileage may vary, but I do believe that this is one vegetable that you can easily skip the next time you visit our favorite warehouse store! Good luck!
A crisp shell gives way to a soft, velvety potato texture that makes one toes curl. Whether you like it extra salted or with a kick of spice, these fries can be served as is or with your favorite seasonings!
Most frozen fries I’ve tried in the past are still too soggy or lack the seasoning after being frozen for an undisclosed amount of time. These ones are crispy and snack-worthy right outta the bag!
Like most Costco items, this is a BIG bag of fries. Unless you’re feeding a family or just me, this bag will take a lot of valuable freezer space. So eat quickly or invest in a deep freezer!
Worth the hype! Since the days of the polish dog and churros, I’ve been a lover of french fries! I’ve tried frozen fries from Safeway, Trader Joe’s, and other big box chains but the Kirkland frozen fries reign supreme. The simplicity of using an air fryer and the reasonable cook time makes this a worthwhile household staple.
