how much are costco cats these days?

>Can someone itemize this?
No
>How?
The steaks are probably $25ish alone, $16ish in milk, I think those pomegranate juices are like $6-8 a pop. no idea how much the protein bars and that skinny dipped shit run.
If you assume $10 per item on any given costco run it usually averages out. 16x10=160, so it seems about right.
>>
>>21092559
The cat is merely there for updoots
>>
>>21092548
Each of those jugs of almond milk is about $6-8 so that's $20-$40 right there. Pomegranite juice is some of the most expensive shit you can buy and POM is overpriced. Each of those bottles is $10-ish. So $60 accounted for. Those IQ bar packs are about $25....

So that's $85 of prepacked and mass produced junk that you don't need.

The rest is insubstantial. He spend about $80 on things he actuallyn eeded and the rest on shit he didn't. Those two-dozen egg packs are like $8. The steaks were probably the most expensive item in the pack.

Idk how much he paid for the cat, tho.
>>
How much is a cat at Costco?

Get rid off the fruit and coffee and all that shit, protein bars. Eggs, broccoli, chicken, liver, potatoes, milk. That's all you should buy

all these retards complaining about "out of season fruit" and none of this other shit?
>>21092569
You know that globalism makes shit like this cheap in supermarkets like costco, right? That bunch of bananas was probably $5 and those blackberries were no more than $3. This dude bought $100 of garbage, $20 of steak, plus $10 of fruit and vegetables. You people are fucking deranged if you think the "fruit" was in any way expensive.

The pure irony of you talking about crying while crying. So many butt hurt thirdies on here.

Looking through the reddit thread:

~$44 for the 5 steaks
~$7 for the eggs (prices are kinda high right now due to bird coof)
~$20 for two bottles of POM
~$6*4 = $24 for 4 bottles of lactaid milk
~$16 for 3lbs of coffee

OP mentioned this lasts him around two months aside from the steaks.
>>
>>21092548
He could get 130 lbs of chicken leg quarters for the same amount of money. And he wouldn't even need a Costco membership.
>>
>>21092548
$100 cat
>>
>>21092796
Yeah but it's bitch made to drink it
>>
>>21092548
Pre-tax itemization:
- 4 gallons of milk ($3.69 each) = $14.76
- 2 POM pomegranate juice bottles ($9.29 each) = $18.58
- 1 package of lean beef steaks = $38.99
- 1 container of green grapes = $9.29
- 1 bunch of bananas = $3.29
- 1 package of dinner rolls = $6.49
- 1 large carton eggs (30-count) = $9.29
- 1 box protein/granola bars = $9.99
- 1 package fresh asparagus = $6.49
- 1 package blackberries = $6.49
- 1 large can coffee = $22.99

Subtotal: $153.64
Tax (7.72%): $11.86
Total: $165.50

And of course, one quality control inspector (the cat) not included in the total.
>>
>>21093031
>- 1 large carton eggs (30-count) = $9.29
The sad part is that it's not even an unrealistic price these days. Obviously the CACC (Cat assurance, cat control) fees for quality inspection will be expensive but still.
>>
how can someone complain about prices and then waste 20 bucks on pomegranate juice is beyond my comprehension.
>>
>>21092548
>costco sells live cats for cooking
sickening
>>
>>21092568
Judging by its chonkiness I'd say the cat was looking for a treat.
>>
>>21092842
Turns out, importing fruit from the other side of the planet at such a speed that it's still fresh by the time it hits the shelf in Bumblescum, Nebraska, is quite expensive.
>>
>>21092812

It makes them allow the cat to do disgusting things, so that the parasite can spread.

What rate, organic, gold-plated and diamond-encrusted bananas are you buying, Twinkie Warbucks?
>>
>>21093330
>>21093427
And yet you probably allow women to sit on your sofa without a plastic tarp. So who's the real savage?
>>
I could legitimately pay less than half that at a normal supermarket. Without the two snack items, which I've no idea what they are nor how much they'd go for at Safeway, Food Lion or ShopRite, I added up roughly what I'd expect to pay for the other items and it comes to about $65, give or take $10. There's no way in hell those bars and whatever that gay purple package is would cost $80 together so this confirms, once again, that Costco is for retards.
>>
>>21092548

The cat alone is like fifty bucks, those don't come cheap.
>>
>>21092548
Bong here, could that be Canadian Dollars by any chance? Idk if Costco is in Canada or not but that still seems very pricy even for CAD

>>21092548
I could get all that for like 50 bucks at Aldi.

do people really buy shit that isnt marked down?
>>
>>21093489
Do you mean managers specials or normal sales/offers? Cuz I don't always buy managers specials but I rarely, if ever, buy food that wasn't advertised in the flyer/circular. Outside of specialty stores like butchers or immigrant shops, anyway
>>
>>21093493
for dinner ingredients i usually just look for sales or manager stickers. switching to vegetarian has made this way easier since mushrooms are almost always marked down
>>
>>21093495
We plan means several days in advanced based on what's advertised in the circulars that coming week so I get what you mean. For example, a local supermarket is going to have 80/20 ground beef for $2.49/lb starting tomorrow (but eggs are going up to $2.39/dz from the $2 they've been the last several weeks, oh well) so we're going to have burgers, meatloaf or Bolognese or something in the coming week.
Shopping like this has the benefit of ensuring you're eating seasonally, too.

The prime steak is like 50 - 60 dollars easily. Now if he replaced that weight in pork loin, he'd be at like 120 with all the stupid juices included. Get rid of the juices and you'd easily be under 100. It's not costcos fault for expensive prices. It's being unwise with your money.

This is about £60 worth of groceries at Costco in the UK.

What the fuck is going on with the dollar?
>>
>>21093575
Costco has pretty good prime steak. It's just the picture is very low quality so I can't zoom in to confirm.
>>
>>21092548
in local prices that would be
>2$ for the eggs
>2$ for the bananas
>probably like 5$ for the grapes, they're out of season
>same for the blackberries
>2$ for two sodas
>1.5$ per jug of distilled water, so 6$ in total

>not sure what the plants are, probably like 1$
>1.5$ for bread
>not sure what the skinny dipped thing is, probably some 1$ snack slop

in total that's 36$

January is a great month to forage for blackberries so I'm sure that they're in session commercials, too.

Without even reading this thread I can tell that already accounts for at least 75% of the tab.
Staples are staples for a reason. Beef has no excuse being as expensive as it is, but the rest of that is nonsense.

According to me and reality.
They're not quite as abundant as in, say, October, but you can definitely find a bunch of them among the brambles if you're willing to get in there. They tend to be sweeter for some reason, too. More time on the vine, I guess?
>>
>>21093738
>They're not quite as abundant as in, say, October, but you can definitely find a bunch of them among the brambles if you're willing to get in there.
Yeah, that's nice, but that does not at all translate to assuming that this is commercially viable.
Actual farmers and distributors aren't out there secretly digging through the brambles in the dead of winter.
>>
>>21093744
Of course they're not digging through the brambles because they've no brambles to dig through. I'm just saying that if they're still growing in January and you just gotta deal with a few thorns to get to them, then certainly they've got still be growing in those manicured lines of produce farmers manage, right (and with the benefit of not having to deal with brambles).
>>
>>21093749
>I'm just saying that if they're still growing in January and you just gotta deal with a few thorns to get to them
And I'm saying that doesn't mean they're "in season", or that the production is anything sustianable or marginal.
That's the core of this discussion, where does the supply meet the demand, and that's why there's a disconnect between your foraging strats and farming strats.

milk is $4-5 each depending where you are.
bread roll things would be about $5
meat ~$15 or $20
grapes like $5
eggs, that many in this economy will set you back like $25 on their own.
can of coffee that big is like $20
no idea what the black shit is, but if its some organic vegan prune juice butt cleanser hippie shit its prob $5 a bottle if not more.

the only stuff in the grocery store under $5 anymore is canned goods, and they're already up to $2-3 a can (canned soup is up to $5)
