Yes, gas alone. Even worth walking in the store for eggs and milk if you can't wrap your head around all of the shite in there.

The kirklands bourbon is a great value.

Costco bacon is the $hit. Example, try the prime rib I wrapped up with it and grilled:

Thick as hell applewood center cut.



Even after grilling it is still thicker than most thick cut bacon before cooking. Some of it came off after grilling:



ETA: I usually buy Woodford and Blanton's (when they have it) at Costco. I will try the Kirkland brand now that a few have sung its praises. I try to always get my gas there.

Also which Kirkland liquors are worth a shite? I assume the vodka is fine, bitches cant taste it once its in a sweet mixer.

I haven't had one yet I've regretted.

Can't beat em for the price. Even their beer is decent

The Kirkland thick cut bacon is great IMO.

Two 16 oz packs for $10. You can't beat that. That saves me like $10/week alone

Kirkland wine is good too. Typically, Costco buys surplus red wine from some very nice California labels who want to keep supply low on their end (think supply and demand curve) . Therefore, you never know if the next bottle of Kirkland red wine you open maybe J. Davies or Far Niente.

I like Kirkland brand stuff just as much as the other Costco lovers but their bourbon is awful. Just my .02 cents. So damn harsh, reminds me of Fred's

True that on the mixed nuts. Planters and the Albertsons brands were starting to get Pappy Van Winckle-ish with their pricing. Costco to the rescue!

Their Large bottle of Kirkland's Baileys is insanely good. $15 for a large bottle, a large Baileys is what, like $40
