Love you Marie! Your videos are so informative. I’ve been following you from the beginning and I wonder why you haven’t become popular. Your channel deserves a lot more subscribers. Hope you’ll achieve soon. Please don’t stop posting. Much love ❤️
hi guys! I always like to see what kind of stuff they have at American stores abroad. Korean Costco has some of the same stuff, but a lot of stuff tailored towards Koreans. Check it out, and don't forget to comment and let me know what you have at YOUR costco that's special!
Hi Marie When I had a Costco card I would get there toilet roll, kitchen roll, washing powder, and peanut butter. You can put coffee pack in freezer to keep it fresh. Just put a clip on it and put it in, will last a lot longer. 🤗😍💖🎀📸👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@aroundtheworldinaprildays You can use the same card you got from the States. You can travel with it. It gets accepted in other countries. You don't need to apply twice. Haha.
@@Tinyfurball i dont have a card yet, and im not from the US. There's no costco here in my country so i was wondering if i can get a membership in seoul while im visiting. Thanks!
I love the pimple patches; I get a version of them from Walmart, and I love how they work. I'll literally wear them even to work and nobody notices them; by the end of the day, the pimple is gone. Really glad I told my husband about them and got me started on these, so thank you for the tips on them. Never been to a Costco before, but it kind of reminds me of Sam's Club where I'm at, which is like Walmart in big bulk. Keep up the fun, Marie, and enjoy time with the family. God bless yours and you! :)
Hi, am going to Korea soon, might check out Songdo Costco as it's near to airbnb we are gonna stay. I love to check out Costco in other countries and buy local products that are not avail in America Costco or very expensive. Went to Japan-Hiroshima Costco, loved it. Bought Uni Pasta Sauce & dried seafood snack there which are very expensive in regular supermarkets in Hawaii and none sold in Costco 😔 I will buy dried fish snack if we go to Songdo Costco. I love dried seafood snacks and they are super expensive in Hawaii.
I tried some Bibgogo's chicken and cilantro mandu from Costco and it was pretty good. But you can REALLY taste the cilantro. I know that some people can't stand cilantro so they might wanna stay away from this one. LOL. Oh, their galbi mandu is really good. It owns me. HAHAHA!!!!
Unfortunately we don't have a Costco here in my country but there are membership stores similar to Costco.. Wasn't able to go at Costco when I was in Korea even if it was just infront of my friend's apartment in Baekseok. Anyway, thanks for this video. Looking forward on the next one.
Hi Elle! What country are you from? Aww you weren't able to go... Well no worries I lived in Korea for 2 years until I went with my sister in law 😂 And I think you can buy most of this stuff elsewhere, its just not in bulk and maybe you save a couple extra dollars here but it's not worth the cost unless you're going to go regularly!
I'm from the Philippines...what we have here are Landers and S&R where people can buy bulk items mostly from the US. There are a lot of supermarkets here though where we can buy retail items.
The bulgogi bake is my #1 as well. They also have a bulgogi pizza but that isn't as good. And Koreans for some reason make a weird "Costco salad" mixing chopped onions and mustard from the hot dog toppings. I'd say that most tables are eating that. I usually go to Costco in Korea once a week so I think it's worth the membership. I've been to a bunch of them but gongsae is nice because it's all one floor looks the US (located near yongin). Sangbong is ok since it's usually not too crowded. Hanam has a pretty big parking lot. Yangjae is the worst because it's the most crowded. I only go right when they open or the last hour before they close in order to find parking. Those branches all have tables but the tables fill up. My kids like French fries and the Cavendish brand fries at Costco are good.
Yes finally what exactly what I'm looking for. I'm travelling on 2nd week of october. Just a quick question. If I only have 4 hours flight. It is okay to bring frozen foods or it will get spoil easily?. Thanks!
It depends where are you going and from what country... It's not the same everywhere. Usually you cant cross the country border with meat, dairy, fruit and vegetables...
I'd also think about the waiting time.. like transport to the airport and check in. That could easily add up to a full day of travel so maybe it will spoil...
Costco is a good place to buy lamb and always has inexpensive raspberries in the US. I use my membership enough - especially with gift baskets from the website.
Interesting! I always like to hear about what other people buy at Costco. We used to have the membership in the US because they had good king crab & snow crab legs.
Hawaii did the Bulgogi Bakes for a while and also have some Bibigo items. I have tried on Rolex watches at Costco. I have seen high end purses only when they have a Road Show.
Oh my the costco in Korea is really different than in Canada too. I wish we had the nexcare pimple patches here. That price for 156 of them is cheap. I got through these quickly cause my husband use them too. Their beauty and skincare section is huge too in comparison to Canada and maybe USA too. Your kids are so cute. I definitely think the Costco membership is worth it given it's much cheaper in Korea. In Canada, it's minimum $60CAD.
I got a free membership when I worked an insurance company that was affiliated with Costco but I would never pay for one 😂😂 I was just never bought enough there to justify it. I always found that they had a good deal on feminine hygiene products! That’s normally all I went in for. And the gas! Loooooooooooooool
What that's so cool!! I didn't know they gave out free memberships. Ahh the gas!!! I forgot about that. My family in the states always gets gas at Costco! 😂
Korea had much much higher regulatory system than korea for most if not all consumer goods. It is often higher than the U.S. even the same products have different ingredients to match the system here.
All Costcos offer high-end items. Why is that degrading/devaluing them? A paid membership to get in is required and Costco helps others afford bigger brand name products. As for things I like to get at my Costco in Ohio, definitely Bibigo products like bulgogi dumplings or bowls, Samosas and lentils for our Indian meals, sun block, healthy bread, and frozen stirfry vegetables.
