Does Costco even have store brands?

I'm hoping the carry Mexican Coke. BJs was stocking it for a couple of years but they just stopped. It's available lots of places now, but only single bottles at much higher prices.

Costco's store brand is called Kirkland. They do carry Mexican coke. I think that it is in 30 pack or is it a case(24). Can't remember. I miss the fountain Mexican coke they had in the cafe.

As dougb225 said, the store brand is Kirkland. I've fed my dogs Kirkland dog food for at least 15 years now, and I've had really good results lately with the Sweet Potato & Turkey, and also Sweet Potato & Salmon. Around $32 for 35 lbs. They also have really nice large round dog beds for $28. For me, I get the Costco toilet paper, paper towels, H/E laundry detergent, dishwasher pods, and fabric softener sheets. I also buy glasses, contact lenses, clothing and other things I had no idea I needed until I saw them. ;-)

In my case, it's probably better that the Apex location opens later rather than sooner! That said, the last time I drove by was on Friday and people were working in the rain. I believe the roof is complete, and there were large lights inside the building.

I am pretty sure I saw it at BJs last night (Cary store) but it wasn't in the aisle where they have cases of soda and water. It was over closer to the candy aisle (2 or 3 back aisles back). You may want to call first but I am pretty sure.

I'll have to check. Unfortunately, the Cary store doesn't carry a few things we buy that are at Brier Creek so I'm not there that often. When they stopped carrying it a few weeks back, I did ask the people at the desk at both stores and they said it was discontinued. Then again, like any other grocery warehouse store. You have to first figure whether they even know what you are asking about, then they may or may not actually care enough to really check.

OMG, I misread that. I thought you wanted to buy Mexican Coke, BJ's and and Stockings at Costco. hahahahaha.


I see the question was answered. About the Kirkland brand. Most of it I really like. Oddly, their coffee beans are roasted by Starbucks. I hate Starbucks, but love the Kirkland Beans.

About the TP: I've heard from so many people how awesome it is that I bought 30 rolls, or however many come in a mega-brick. It was not bad, but nowhere close to Charmin Ultra. I secretly replaced it in my house (even hid the Kirkland packaging in my car) and IMMEDIATETLY got called out. Bummer (no pun intended). Now I have 29.5 rolls I have to give away for Christmas presents and stocking stuffers.....


All in all, I think most of their house-brand stuff is really good quality. Another really good product at a good price is their plain Chevre (goat cheese). YUM!

I'm very loyal to Costco, but always get my toilet paper at Sam's. Their Member's Mark Ultra Premium Toilet Tissue is like heaven to touch.
