Default Finally - Prime Packes at My Costco/SoCal

I know these have been showing up around SoCal Costcos for a while, but I've never seen them at the one I go to in Marina Del Rey. I haven't seen full packers of any grade there until tonight. I picked up this floppy farker for $3.29/#:

They finally started carrying them in my area (same price) about a month or so ago.

I am cooking my first one tomorrow for my daughters birthday party

I'd take the $3.29 a pound. Here in WA, they had tri-tips at $9.50 a pound! I didn't see any the last time I went in. I hope they make it up to our neck of the woods.

The thought definitely entered my mind! I got the second to last one, & almost grabbed the other one, but I was getting pretty close to maxing out what I could spend so I let that one go.

Yeah.... noticed them in the San Marcos Costco earlier this week - same price. I've seen them there before & then there weren't any forever.

I hope people buy them so that Costco will continue to stock them.
