Costco Shopping – June 15, 2013 / Bamboo Bowl

John

I bought 4 more T-Shirts.  Bought some seasoned sea-weeds, a book about local history, etc..

Today’s highlight was 14 Inch bamboo bowls by Island Bamboo. These bowls are beautiful. There were different colors such as red and green. I liked the natural bamboo color. I thought $24.99 was a crazy low price. So, I got one. This bowl will occasionally come in handy.

Right after Costco shopping, I went to a local farmers’ market. I found a bamboo bowl there. With my naked eyes, that bowl looked identical to what I just bought from Costco, no kidding…identical to my eyes. He wanted $75.00 for just a bowl (no utensils included).

As soon as I got home, I went online and looked up the 14″ Island Bamboo bowl. I found the same bowls at Amazon for $46.00. They didn’t even include utensils.

And, finally, I went to eBay and found somebody selling this same product for $54.99 (free shipping). I often think about buying stuff at Costco and selling them at eBay. I guess many people are doing just that.
