Here are some of the items I am willing to make the trip for.

Since they aren’t available in Canada, I stock up while I’m stateside.

Sparkling Water

I am a sparkling-water girlie through and through.

Neither the Kirkland Signature nor theSpindriftsparkling water is available in Canada.

And until they are, you’ll always find three to four cases in my cart at the checkout.

The ingredients are simple: blended and gently dried fruit, plus black carrot extract for color.

Their fruit-forward flavor and natural texture is second to none.

Fresh Organic Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts

Organic and grass-fed meat is much more expensive in Canada.

That’s a huge price difference!

This is great news from this Polish girl’s perspective!

Butter

The Costco dairy section is a baker’s delight!

Yes, you read that correctly: more options for half the price.

Butter keeps well in the freezer for up to nine months.

Greek Yogurt

Greek yogurtis always in our fridge.

We eat it and use it for meal-prepping weekly.

Cottage Cheese

We all know that cottage cheese is having a moment.

The guidelines for bringing goods across the Canadian border prohibit alcohol if you travel for less than 48 hours.

I store the flour in food-safe containers and it lasts me for several months.

The flour is great; I couldn’t be happier with the quality and the price.

All in all, it’s a great buy!

It’s even smartly used to make one of Cameron Diaz’s favorite snacks.

Also, a standard 5-ounce bottle goes for about $7, unless it’s on sale.

Are you ready to have your mind blown?

Yes, they are excellent for snacking on.

Shopping at home is routine, and it can often feel monotonous week after week.

And you’ll definitely find things that aren’t available in the U.S.

So it would be fun and beneficial for you to shop here, as well!
