Fun! Oh, and about your quest for vodka: I was surprised to learn (just a couple of days ago) that The New York Times rated Costco’s vodka “Kirkland American” as the best overall vodka. This really surprised me. They said it was good quality - very smooth - and an excellent price. So you may want to pick it up next time! 😉
@@HopeLaFleur1975 Well, if they marry, they will pay lower taxes in France. So, to use your analogy, the cow will produce cash in addition to milk ... which can be a good incentive to buy that engagement ring. If they have kids, their taxes will become even lower.
I was tempted by that pecan pie today at one of the two Colorado Springs Costco locations. I didn't buy it because I would eat it much too fast, but it sure looked good. It was $15.99 USD, or 15.05 euros, so very similar price as Paris. 1
The Kirkland vodka has a similar taste to Grey Goose as it is distilled in the same region of France. Costco's Kirkland Signature French vodka is crafted by Gayant Distillery of Douai, France. Distributor company LeVecke Corporation. It is a very nice vodka and not a bad price. Sante! 🍸
Oh my, I LOVE Sortilege liqueur and it is very hard to get in Texas. I’ve not heard of maple flavored Canadian Whisky though. Bad news is that our Costco only has beer and wine. I wish……….! I always enjoy your Paris Costco trips. We were just in Paris and it would have been fun to go there to look around.
As raclette is a Swiss meal, i am surprised it's so popular in France.Btw they have also some interesting ways to serve it,which are def. not from Schweiz😊Happy Advent to you and Jean☃️❄️
Some of the food items were cheaper than what Costco charges here in N Y C. But yeah, lots of super overpriced Holiday items. That fake tree was pathetic at any price. We have dedicated hobby and home stores that have great Christmas stuff for muc, much less and better quality. Do the French decorate their homes at Christmas like many of us Americans do? Love these shopping trips. Would be very interested to know cost of renting the car. Fun trip.
I found Costco Paris very expensive. It's not the place to buy pâtisserie or quality chocolates. Nice to have a look, of course. Thank you for taking us along.
All the prices shown are greater (some, much greater) than the prices of the same items sold at our local Costco (in my case, Las Vegas): Kirkland Vodka 1.75 liter is $20.99 and same size Grey Goose is $42
Hello. Just found your channel. Interesting how huge the Costco is. Where is it located? Buffalo Trace is excellent bourbon and at 23€ a great price. Curious though, I follow many channels featuring a US woman married to or partnered with a French man but I haven’t found any featuring a US man with a French woman. Any insight on this would be appreciated. Merci.
@dougcargill sorry to disappoint you Grey Goose is owned by Bacardi, distilled in Picardy, France. Kirkland brand vodka is LeVecke Corp. distilled by Terroirs Distillers, also, Northern France. Not the same as Grey Goose
I thought Costco was cheaper. We don’t have one near me. But I have been with my daughter and son in law. We belong to Sam’s club. Which I’m sure they don’t have in Paris. Since it’s like a huge Walmart. I have been there with my daughter too. We live in a different state. And I have bought things online. But I’ve never been in a store here. And there’s one in the next city over from us. Someday I will go inside. But I,would rather shop online and not deal with the crowds around here.
Christmas in France is much more low key (like everyhting else) than what' in the US. It's the biggest holiday in france, but you won't see many lights out, or people decorating too much. Some people will though. It depends. But there's no eggnog :( Christmas'Eve is when people eat a lot so they'll buy lots of food mostly sea food, foie gras (the best thing ever IMO), turkey and so forth. It depens on each family. It's still pretty commercial, and the pressure is on for buying gifts.
It seems that the only things made in France are the enameled cast iron. Love your content and hello from the Scarborough Bluffs just east of Toronto!❤️
I love this video. I always buy the dozen croissants for $7 and freeze most of them. I’m sure they’re not as good as you get, but to me, I’m happy. I recently bought a cordless vacuum. If you can imagine loving a vacuum, I love it. The reason I would buy from Costco over some place else… I flattened the box it came in, taped the receipt to the inside and put it in a closet. Not sure it’s necessary. I can return the vacuum cleaner to Costco and get my money back forever. From another store, 30 days and it cannot be returned. Thanks for sharing your shopping trip.
You seemed to be attracted to many of the high sugar products at Costco. Hope you have been able to maintain your weight loss. I live alone, so I can’t justify a Costco membership. Fortunately, you can use the food court without a membership. The prices make the food easier to digest, for me.

😂 Arielle hinting to Jean about the engagement ring. You go, girl!
He’s sleeping with her so hes already getting the whole cow. So why spend money on an engagement ring. 🤖🤖
@@HopeLaFleur1975 not a nice comment. 😡
@@HopeLaFleur1975 that isn’t a very nice comment. 😡

That maple booze from Quebec is very good ❤️
Hi from California. Your baked goods look much better, but those chickens look miniaturized! We definitely need Aligot here.

Costco's vodka is VERY good. In the USA they even sell a superior French made vodka. Do they sell foie gras at Costco?
You should try their Pesto Sauce., loads of Basel

Wow Costco and big cars you don't always see in Paris, like being in North America minus the grey skies.

Omg , Coors beer ??when you have access to so many great European beers.
Indeed , just the thought of bought it was a sacrilege
Coors is terrible. Not worthy of the moniker.
I can’t stand cast iron pots. Too heavy! I’ve been buying ceramic cookware - it’s lighter and non stick. Cheaper too.
Plz do more of this videos plzzz❤
Lol. You could not pay me to go to a Costco here in the states. But France Costco? I'm riveted by these Costco vids!
91 isn’t Paris but great video
You should have bought the Sortilege. It is effing amazing.
You know i regret it so much 😭 I got home and was like… what the hell girl go back and get it 😭
There is 2 locations of Costco in France. Which one is the best? In your opinion. Thanks

Kirkland Vodka is made by Grey Goose!

The Le Crueset mugs, baking dishes, utensil holders,etc are not made in France!
Yes the accessories like the mugs are made in China HOWEVER the skillet I showed is definitely made in France ! ☺️

I have had 30 euro raclette machines. They're good for the landfill.
Maybe you don’t know how to take care of it ☺️ mine was 20€ and I’ve had it for 5 years and it’s in perfect condition 😉

1.75L Grey Goose in Virginia $49.99
Forget Costco...."wholesale" sizes, but not prices. We can match or beat their product offers elsewhere without the big sizes.
There is no Costco in Paris.
There are 2 Costcos in France, both on the outskirts of Paris

Costco doesn't really get huge specials.
