Elderberry gummies on sale at Costco – too good to be true?
Hey everyone! I'm JoyfulJack, always on the lookout for a good deal. So I was at Costco today and saw a mega bottle of elderberry gummies for like $12! That's half the price of the ones I usually get at the health food store. I'm worried maybe the quality is garbage or they're past their prime. Anyone tried these? Is it a steal or should I pass?
Jack, I see this all the time with supplements. Big box stores like Costco can negotiate lower prices from manufacturers, so it's not automatically a red flag. But always check the label – look for actual elderberry extract (not just juice concentrate) and minimal added sugar. If it's a reputable brand, I'd snag it. I've gotten some great deals at Costco myself, and they hold up to my standards. Just my two cents as a wellness influencer!
I'm a retired nurse, so I'm cautious about supplements. Jack, I'd check the expiration date too – sometimes they put things on sale to clear out stock that's about to expire. But if it's fresh and from a known brand (like Nature's Way or whatever Costco carries), it's probably fine. I've bought elderberry gummies from Target on sale and they worked just as well as the pricier ones. Go for it!
Thanks guys! I checked the label – it's Kirkland brand (Costco's own) with 100mg of elderberry extract per gummy, and only 2g of sugar. Expiry is in 2026, so seems legit. I bought two bottles – maybe I should grab a few more? 😂 Appreciate the advice!
