Hi all,
Thought I'd start a thread dedicated to Costco: deals, prices, not-so-good-a-deal, etc.
Super deal I found a month ago: 20YO Speyside single malt for only 4458 yen--very good.
But I'm trying to figure out whether Costco's toilet paper is worth the price (compared to a J-brand). Here's my math:
Kirkland 30 roll pack: 1998 yen (total sq. m: 148)--13.5 yen per sq. m
Nepia double ply (which seems to me to be about the same quality) 12 pack: 298 yen (25m, width: 114mm, total sq. m: 34.2)--8.7 yen per sq. m.
Seems like Costco cost me an extra 708 yen over the J-brand (and the quality and softness seems about the same.)
Did I figure this out right? I've saved a bundle at Costco so far, but I just can't assume everything will be cheaper there.
