True Nature Protein Hemp Bars - Canada

I decided to go to Costco this morning to look for some storage solutions, and couldn't find anything, so instead I walked out of the store with $170 in things not related to storage.. I can't say this has not happened before. I found a few new items though (new to me). I found these healthy hemp bars (at least healthy in my books). I knew what every ingredient in them was, which is very rare! They cost $16.49 for 24 bars, but are made from all natural "real" ingredients, something I am willing to pay a premium for! They are packed with protein so I am thinking a good snack for myself or my husband! 
 

Pinty's Buffalo Chicken Flings - Canada

A few months ago I was at Costco looking for quick dinner items, and came across these chicken strips. I had seen them many times before but never made the purchase. I usually hate chicken strips/nuggets because of how processed they are, but these are actual pieces of chicken. My husband and I both love them! They would also be great for kids. The package comes with two self contained containers, each enough for one meal (2-4 people). The package is $12.39 at my Costco and is found in the fresh refrigerator section.

About Me

Hello Blog world! My name is Laura and I am 25 years old. I live in Maple Ridge, British Columbia and work within the school system. I have been married for just over two years and both my husband and I are addicted to Costco!

This addiction started about 5 years ago when we both started doing out own grocery shopping, and stopped relying on our parents. This addiction has really reached a peak within the last 2 years, since we got married and moved in together. I go to Costco at least once a week, if not 2, or 3 times. Last year we spend nearly $8000 at this store, on all things big and small (from a mattress, to a Vita-mix, to bikes, to eggs).

In this blog I plan on highlighting the great products and deals I find at Costco, both in Canada and in the States! I live about 30 minutes north of the USA border so head down weekly to do grocery shopping. Please follow my blog and let me know of any great things you find at Costco!
