What a d bag...

I saw the stack when I went in, but when I went back to get one they were all gone. I guess from Costco's viewpoint it means space for new product but still...Literally embodies the old grab it "when you see it" at Costco philosophy.

Now I get why I saw all of them stacked on a cart behind checkout, someone must have reserved them all. This is at Oshawa.

What’s so good about this thing?

Costco doesn't reserve items unless it's been paid already.

I was wondering the same thing. It seems to be a margarita-making robot, and it costs $280 on Amazon right now:

I just did the YouTube and it looks neat lol

Shaved ice 🥰

We've had one for 3 or 4 years. Makes fantastic shaved ice margaritas or slushies. It's far better than any blender (including professional bar blenders) that I've used. $99.97 is a steal. Does the bag come with it, too, because I think that's a $50 or so item?

Very true, as I have had them hold clearance items for me on numerous occasions. Of course, only a same day type of deal.

I don't think I've seen these in Ottawa(Kanata/Barrhaven/Gatineau), anyone seen them in the city?

Bought mine just over a year ago thanks to RFD, someone mentioned it was on sale at Walmart and drove to pick it up. The price was well worth the 25min drive.
The one I bought was the Key West Jimmy Buffett Anniversary, not sure if the Costco is same or newer version.

We got ours at a Sears closing-out sale for $150 and have enjoyed it quite a bit. Wish it wasn't so big (for storage) but it does the job very well...lots of fun and yumminess!

We have a liquidation place in Calgary that sells mostly Costco clearance stuff. The prices are higher.
I wonder if that's what's happening. Great for Costco store manager. Gets rid of "old" stock in 1 transaction.
Screws it up for the average consumer looking for a good deal though.

Edit (2:59): Apparently Stoney Creek has 14.

Same here... I know a warehouse in Laval that sells Costco's clearance items, or open / damaged box items...

What place is that?

Bought one today at Abbotsford Costco. Had approximately 10 left. Comes with the bag.

I keep seeing these Margaritaville threads and keep thinking it would be great to have one. Then I realize I rarely (almost never) drink slushy drinks and think of the counter space and let it go.
I guess i’m still searchin' for my lost shaker of salt, maybe one day there's booze in the blender and soon it will render that frozen concoction that helps me hang on.

I got mine at Treasure Hunt a few months ago for $70.00. Still $100.00 is a great deal!
