Current favorite French Roast Coffee from Costco (Whole Bean)

Image
The last time I tried SF Bay Coffee from Costco was a few months ago.  It was some sort of organic coffee, don't remember the exact type but my wife and I did not like it.  This one was so much better this time around - it must have recently been roasted with expiration dates in October 2020. I think it was just around $10.99 a bag for 2 lbs.

Energizer Rechargeable Batteries and Charger Set | $29.99

Image
No more eneloops for now it seems.  Energizer has taken over the Costco battery aisle with recycled batteries.  I believe consumer reports or some other review focused organization gave these a top rating, especially since Eneloops had sold out to Sanyo (I believe years ago). $29.99 price for the set, which looks really similar to the old Eneloops set. 6AA and 4 AAA included, the rest are spacers. 2000 mAH AA 800 mAH AAA Also note these are on promo from time to time.  $9 off from time to time. Check out prices on Amazon for these batteries here.

Ninebot ES3 @ Costco for $579.99

Image
The Ninebot ES electric kickscooters  are very good last mile transportation devices.  I've tried the Ninebot ES4 and that one is a beast - its a popular choice for the scooter rental company Byrd and others I'm sure. But this one is the ES3, which is an ES1 plus Extended Battery.   It still makes it a great deal and you can't lose by buying from Costco. If you live in a hilly area though , skip this and get the Ninebot ES4 .

One of Highest Rated Foam Mattresses by Casper Spotted @ Costco

Casper mattresses are one of the most recommended, and top rated memory foam type mattresses around.  I spotted these for sale at our local Costco in Monterey Park.  Great price! No King size in stock though, just Cal King.

Spare Rib Portions $2.99!

Bought these last week at Costco in Monterey Park, CA.  Fresh, and great deal since we are used to buying these at around $4.99 / lb  in local asian markets.
