Made my first trip today and there was so much to see, but I didn't buy any unfamiliar things.

I saw some salmon burgers in the freezer section. Has anyone tried those?

I bought some pork medallions with Tuscan seasoning, which I hope my husband will grill tomorrow.

What do y'all like to get?

I will disappoint the F&DB by admitting I'm not much of a drinker, so unless something changes, I won't be buying anything but the occasional bottle. USDA prime beef sounds good, though!

Those pork medallions are pretty good. Kirklands brand alcohol is good. I like their salmon with pesto butter ready to cook. Very good price.

I like these Kirkland grapefruit cups, makes eating grapefruit so much easier, and they taste great.

And Beef tenderloin. (sometimes they will halve a tenderloin for you)

Food wise, I just get their prime meat most of the time. They got 2 packs of 3 quart veggie oil for cheap too. Pretty much all their frozen fish is good. When they do the seafood roadshow, you can get some good deals on lobster tails and shrimp.

Avocado oil, broccoli florets, cauliflower, mateos salsa, raw almonds, packs of chicken thighs, eggs, flat of La Coix, and monster zero 24-pack is what I usually leave with.

Also great for non-perishable items, if you have storage. TP, paper towels, shampoo and conditioner, soap, body wash, trash bags. I use paper plates for breakfast so I buy those too.

Kirkland trash bags are surprisingly good. I used to buy the stretchy hefty bags but the Kirkland bags are just as good, imo.

Also buy dog food there.

I had my hand on a package, but decided I don't need to buy everything the first time. Thanks, I'm sure I'll be getting it at some point.

I did get some of that. Will try it with the king crab legs I bought.

Thanks, will look for them.

Wagyu beef? I've never had it before. Ooh, maybe Easter.

I bought some king crab legs and the guy told me that the display was their seafood roadshow and in the future it would probably only be there on Fridays and Saturdays. Good to know.

The Kirkland vodka is basically Grey Goose but was cheap. Great for parties

I believe the roadshow is only every couple months or so, so you have to check with them for the next one. The last one was valentines weekend.

Paper towels, Kleenex, TP, and San Pellegrino in liter bottles.

Coastal aged English cheddar, cheap avocados and raspberries, croissants (stash in freezer and reheat as needed), and giant containers of Fage Greek yogurt. Long English cucumbers....

The liquor from the Kirkland brand is fantastic. The prepared soups are very good, especially the chicken tortilla. The have great pricing on Haas avocados and the Kirkland manchego cheese is great and about half the cost any other place.

I remember Balvanie not denying they made Kirkland scotch, but wouldn't say it was theirs because it wasn't finished in their distillery.

Their 15 lb bags of potatoes are great too if you use a lot of potatoes.
