jetta SG Buy now and gib for Christmas leh. MG is a Kjeldsens Butter Cookie freak. *reminder yell to MG* Oy, Uncle! Cheong ah! BTW, are you a Costco member? They tend to sell stuff 6 months before the season changes thereby giving us members the savings.
Meia Gisborn SG Oops. Stumbled onto this thread late. Sorry! Thanks for the heads-up, jetta! Unfortunately, there aren't any Costco stores here in the barren midwest. However, as luck would have it, I was in Sam's Club this past weekend and noticed that they had 5 lb. tins of Kjeldsen's Danish Butter Cookies available at the same price of $10. The tins were the "traditional" blue, Christmas-themed ones. I wonder if they're the same as the ones you saw at Costco. I'm very tempted to go back there to pick up a tin. FYI, Wal-Mart has the 1 lb. tins available just before Christmas at $2 per tin, so the unit cost works out the same... except after Dec. 25, when they halve the price to clear out their Christmas merchandise. Two years ago, I went back to the local Wal-Mart on Dec. 26 and picked up 20 of the 1 lb. tins at a buck each! Are you going to pick up a 5 lb. tin for yourself?
jetta SG Going to buy? We are in the midst of demolishing the first tier. Posted this because I remember your weakness for the stuff. Unlike last year, this time I will be there to see if I can get in on the 1/2 price action. A buck may as well be free! These cookies remind me of Christmasses/CNYs past. Especially of the good old days when suppliers from Dad's work would send Christmas/CNY hampers to the house. We would get 4 or 5 per festive season. What fun we would have, just ripping the coloured cellphane and discovering yummies.... *off to memory lane* I rarely go to my local Walmart. I find it a little dirty and dingy. Besides, Target is closer and Costco is just across the street. And I wonder why Costco has no presence in your area/state? *rubbing chin* Curiouser and curiouser.
Fatum SG yes there's a costco ..... and yes ... a new walmart supercenter just opened a little while ago ...
Meia Gisborn SG Dropped by Sam's Club today and picked this up for $9.98: And no, I did not get the figurine at Sam's Club. I included it in the second image as a size comparison.
jetta SG MG: The fourth and final tier is in the process of beind decimated. And my tin is nicer than your tin.
jetta SG Oh and since Xmas is coming soon, you're on my list of home made Xmas cookie recipients. Forgiven?
Meia Gisborn SG "MG to jetta. MG to jetta. Commencing demolition of first tier. Repeat. Commencing demolition of first tier. Over."
