Pretty sure the eggs that are $5.99 at Costco aren’t the organic pasture raised eggs. I don’t think they even sell those at our Costcos. I think MrV/CheapCharlie is talking about the 2 dozen Kirkland Signature large cage free eggs.

@ctujackbauer All the stores are closing, so I’m not sure how your store wasn’t slated for closure. At least in my area, the closure sales are handled by the regular employees, no liquidators
I went there Friday at a store that was still open, it was Buena Park, the only remaining open store in Orange County. The closures were leaked to the press, but the stores weren’t officially in liquidation. They’re technically still not in liquidation yet, Big Lots said liquidation sales will start “soon” and “in the coming days” (their wording.)
Interesting. That’s the exact same store I was at on Friday also. I was there about 145 or 2 PM. What time were you there? The two cashiers working when I was there wouldn’t accept any coupons. It was a man and a woman.
Morning, checkout around 10:30 AM

YMMV on using coupons that are sent to you by Big Lots. II had a $5. Off $15 purchase coupon that I wanted to use and they wouldn’t accept it during the closing sale. They said no coupons allowed.

@cheapcharlie9 same here. I couldn’t use any coupons at all. The store told me they don’t care what the corporate email says, period! So I have a $15gc left that I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be wasted cuz there’s practically nothing left on shelves last time I went.
My store accepted coupons because it was still open, it wasn’t slated for closure nor was part of the previous closures. Once a store is taken over by the liquidators, coupons are a no go.

@mistercheap Have you emailed Russ?
PM’ed, don’t have an email for him.
I’ve been to Party City but never bought anything. I suppose the store is (now was) a product of its time. They had a really good selection of party balloons.
RIP
Best deal: Ghirardelli white chocolate chips for very little out of pocket after stacking coupons.
I went there today because it’s the last day and I had a $10 coupon from an email. Bought a party-size peanut butter M&M’s (34 oz.) for the regular price of $12.98 (gadzooks!) minus the $10 coupon = $2.98

You know those old CRT square box televisions? If you filed a claim in 2015, nearly 10 years ago, payments should be incoming (provided you didn’t do something silly like change your email for the last decade.)

$7.44 for me. MrV trumped me.
