For some reason, they never show up on product locators but it could be
because, like Costco, you never know for sure what they will stock. In the past I have bought Tillamoos and big bags of hard boiled eggs. But those are no longer. Same for the Sopes or Sopitos or whatever they were. Anyway... Decided to go down the baking aisle and there were the brownies. Also saw various cake mixes, muffins and other things. Didn't see the icing but really didn't look for it. So I stand corrected. You can get those things here. Just apparently not most of the things, anywhere but there. |

You could get a bag for about $3 and there were well over a dozen eggs in here. I don't remember the exact amount. Would be great for someone who wanted a lot of egg salad or deviled eggs right away. Or for a person who had no way of cooking eggs. We've had to live for extended periods of time with no means of cooking. I used to buy boiled eggs by the dozen in PA. Sure those cost a little more than uncooked eggs, but the ones at Winco did not. They do fill a need. And they taste just like the eggs you make at home. They're just eggs! |

Husband was in the military and we made several cross country moves. Once, it took them 3 months to get our housing ready. Part of that time was spent with my inlaws, part of it at inlaws cabin with only a microwave. That stay was cut short when a man walked in at night, frightening me, and then also the mice. BIL was he one who used it for fishing. The man was his friend but I didn't know him. He had assumed that my BIL was in there. Nope. And no, the back door wasn't locked. Not even sure it had a lock on it. Some military families do travel with extra pots, pans, dishes and utensils but we never did. Would just take up too much room in the vehicles and I've got no problem eating cold foods off of paper plates. |

I rather suspect that Julie's husband and daughter refuse to peel eggs themselves, and Julie doesn't like to do it because it's messy, and then there are the bits of shell to deal with in the compost container. Besides, the shells don't come off properly and all of the eggs end up being mangled. And then someone will scream at her about it. Doris |

It's so bad that if my skin comes into contact with eggs, I get a nasty rash. So I try not to mess with them. They will occasionally eat deviled eggs but neither one eats plain boiled ones very often at all. Perhaps one or two around Easter time. At the time that I bought those, daughter was on South Beach and I thought they would be good for her to eat but she refused to try them. Prior to learning of my egg intolerance, I have bough boiled eggs in smaller quantities and for more money. Perhaps you don't have Winco where you're at. But these sold for about $3 a bag and there were more than a dozen eggs in there. So no more expensive than buying raw eggs, even at Winco's cheap prices. You can get a huge bag of cheese cubes too. I learned not to buy those though because while cheap, we can't eat them all before they go bad. Winco sells some things in restaurant sized proportions. Not everything, but a lot of things give you that option. And their prices are akin to Smart and Final/Cash and Carry, or in some cases cheaper. But in some cases higher. Like loaves of bread. |

In hotels or motels or in a cabin in PA. It did have a microwave but I don't think you can boil eggs in them. |
