      This sounds like it's in the wrong forum.

      • I bought 15 pounds of whole prime top sirloin this weekend. $4.75 a pound. I just sliced into 32 steaks, vacuum packed and into my freezer. These will go with me to the Philippines on Tuesday. It will be nice to eat a decent piece of meat in Manila.

        • I wonder if we can get a quantity discount on these for the next CS get together?

              • I reviewed the past 3 pages of posts and couldnt find this info. I apologize if it's already here.

                Bargains at Costco
                Basically, you can tell if the price has been marked down based on the last digits of the price:

                Price ending in .99 Full Price
                Price ending in .97 Manager Special Price Deal- When it's gone, it's gone
                Price ending in .79 Manufacturer's Deal- Mfg testing out product, usually at lower price than proposed regular Costco Price
                Price ending in .49 Same as .79
                Price ending in .00 Discontinued Clearance. Adios, bye bye. You'll never see this again.
                Price ending in anything with an * Discontinued Clearance.

                I don't know if this is accurate. Observations?

                  I know Target uses a similar markdown scheme, and I know Mrs. D has it memorized. But I gave up on Costco last summer. Haven't missed it nearly as much as I feared I would.

                  • This is really super useful information for all those times I go back to costco eyeballing meat or two gallons of milk or paper plates but not knowing when or if the price will ever go down. Now I'm armed with the right information that will ensure i get a killer deal.

                    The 9.95 whole pizza you can buy at the counter with the individual slices...should I wait for the price to drop or are they only testing out the market for whole pepperoni pizzas?

                      Better stock up on the pizza - the introductory price is going up soon.

                            Lol. To each his own. My firm orders snack foods through Costco. Every three weeks we get a bunch of snacks--mangos, nuts, chips, cookies, licorice, crackers, and a tub of pub mix. By the middle part of the third week, pub mix is inevitably the only remaining thing which has not been completely devoured. It is usually barely cracked, and sometimes completely unopened. It has become a running joke amongst some of us, i.e. food for the poor or starving. "I'm so hungry I could eat pub mix."

                              Not sure I have ever been that hungry.

                              • I acknowledge that I am weird with the pub mix thing, but man, that crap is addictive to me. Don't know why, but I devour the stuff.
