Costco

Yeah good question DMB, from what I've seen there's three different types of stock.

1 - Fresh food. Seasonal, but you can always get your stock standard potatoes carrots etc, just like supermarkets.
2 - Household produce. Toilet paper, pantry stock, etc. Generally same brands through rotation - one time I went there was no Cottonelle toilet paper, they had the Sorbent equivalent. But I've always been able to get tissues, the flour I use, the canned goods I want. And always known brands, eg Kleenex, Panadol, White Wings etc.
3 - Seasonal random warehouse stock. This is the stuff in the middle of the warehouse. Household stuff around the edges and constant stock. Then special buys are put in the middle of the warehouse. Seasonal stuff - so lots of toys at Christmas. Heaps of Christmas wrap - you know how the US loves their Christmas stuff. Plus heaps of books, clothes, all seasonal. You can never guarantee what's going to be there. The candy and sweets are there too and generally always the same sort of treats. Its the special buys that change regularly.

Thanks.. You understood my question better than I did, lol!

Yeah it was the everyday supermarket goods I was thinking of.

But that sums it up pretty well for me :-)

Some things change. Like the US stock. We used to get Hershey choc chips. They now have Kirkland. We get a certain American brand of dishwasher tablets whenever they are in stock. But they aren't always.

And the maple syrup more than doubled in price. I said that already. But I'm bummed :crying:
