Bill and Lisa Look like you enjoyed your trip with your family. The Strictly Dumpling Mike visits all the COSTCOs when he goes to visit Japan, China, Tokyo, Mexico, etc, etc. I like those trips that he does also.
Good stuff at the Big Island Costco!! Always less stress buying the bulk size macadamia nut candies and snacks to bring home to friends and family from Costco. 😅
Thanks uncle Bill and auntie Lisa for a nice tour of this Costco! We love watching different Costco videos too because they do have different things! Hope you guys have a great family time in Hawaii and Merry Christmas! 🎄❤
Had to give you a hesitant thumbs up for a video all about Costco-Kona BUT ! Get on outta there and see Hawaii LOL !!! Cheers and merry holidays L and B ! m.
@@billandlisa Plus I am the only person in the world without a Costco membership LOL !!! Looking forward to watching more of your as-always-fantastic video's !!! Merry merry to you all - Marcia
Thanks for showing us Costco. So many awesome items that are not available on the mainland. Heck, my Costco doesn't have sushi. Wish we had the Honolulu Cookie Co cookies. Always buy them in Las Vegas. Glad to see the food court is the same. Love the $1.50 hot dog and beverage. Happy Holidays!
You're welcome, Yvonne! We were surprised at the food court prices being the same too. But, was hoping for some exclusive food offerings there. Another reason to go to Vegas, right? lol
Ba le pickled veg is from Ba Le which is a Vietnamese sandwich shop. Use it to make your own Bahn mi sandwich. Great Bahn Mi sandwiches. They are around Oahu, so give them a try when you're back in Honolulu. It was a regular lunch spot when I was living there.
We were on honolulu last week and just rushed in to Costco Alakawa st store. My daughter doesn't like going to costco. And this one was so busy! But I don't remember seeing half the stuff! Thanks for sharing this visit.
One of my bucket list places to be God bless always. Happy holidays to yall and your family and friends Baltimore MD giving yall a shout out l always enjoy ur videos.
Lisa have you checked your local Costco Business Center for the Hawaiian Sun products? Ours here in Lynnwood, WA carries them. Your viewers might enjoy a visit to Costco Business Center too.
WOW!!! When were you guys in Costco Kailua-Kona??? There was not much shoppers there and it seems strange that everytime we go there, it is wall to wall people. We shopped there on Nov. 29, 2024 and it was slamming but probably because it was Black Friday. Most of the products you reviewed were sold out when we were there!!! Great video as always. Take care!!! Aloha!!!
They did have the chicken, but we didn't pay attention to the price, we should have, but just wanted to focus on Hawaii items. Thanks for watching, Alan!
What fun! I love my old Cooke St shirts. Good quality - I must have 30 of them. I would fill an empty suitcase with those yummy looking snacks and cookies. And why don't we get fresh poke or sushi at our Costcos? Great video, thanks!
It takes my brother at least a couple of hours to drive from Hilo to Kona to go shopping at Costco. It's an all day affair. Crazy! I've got 3 stores within 15-30 min on Oahu. The neighbor islands only have one each, I believe.
This is our local Costco..The Lychee is good as 10% juice goes. Aunty Kana'is is good on Kalbi and sometimes she comes herself to cook some food with her sauce as samples. The Taro chips is high$$ but its good stuff.
Can check-in a cooler packed with blue ice (but, check with your airline policy regarding coolers to be safe). But, if you're local to a Tokyo central, they make carry the same brand lua lau there.
Aloha!! Another great video!!!❤❤❤ so much hawaiian food products!!! 😊 my cousin eats all those things!!!😂😂😂 the green onions are huge compared to ralphs and vons!!!😂😂😂😂 same prices for the food court😊😊 fun video of costco❤❤❤ thanks for showing us different costcos❤❤❤ cant wait for your next adventure!!!!!❤❤❤
Those Tomoe Ame was something we loved as kids. When we went Jtown with my grandparents… my grandmother would always buy us a little box each. The fun was having the dry sweet rice melt on you lip/tongue. Bring me back an Island Princess bag…. Sushi looked so good.
You mentioned your special toilet but I didn’t catch it but I did hear you say it keeps your butt warm. Can I get more information about what it is? I love watching you guys. I don’t miss it.
Hi Bill and Lisa. I enjoy the walking tours. keep doing them. Interesting to see the differences then our locals. Looks like you sun burning Lisa. Take care guys.
I think all Costcos were created equal and once you’ve seen so many Costco hauls, you’ve seen enough. It’s getting boring and TH-camrs have to stop creating new and not the same thing over and over. I follow families from Alaska and they always do Costco hauls. And you both went in and purchased what?
Thank you for sharing. I may never make it to Hawaii, so I loved it. Watched every lovely minute of it. Thank you, B & L, here’s hoping you had a wonderful holiday! 🎄💕🎄
Agreed. However, unless you live in Hawaii, their focus was on the store's "made in Hawaii" section. Local style foods/brands for their global audience, a large enough portion of whom are Hawaii expats.
I loved seeing all the fun local items at the Costco! This video made me crave macadamia nuts!
Just love Costco!! What a variety of items from Hawaii!
I really like just shopping around the store and valuing different products!! This was perfect!
Thanks Winnie! We love exploring the different items available in different locations!
Holy smokes...those green onions grow like leeks. Love the selection of poke and sushi.😋😋
We were so surprised by the size of those green onions!
Wonderful video. We’ll be there later this year and will definitely visit this Costco.
Thank you!

Wow!! I really enjoyed watching this tour of the Costco in Hawaii!! Thanks for bringing us along for the ride!! Live life guys!!
Thanks for watching, Debbie!
Good stuff at the Big Island Costco!! Always less stress buying the bulk size macadamia nut candies and snacks to bring home to friends and family from Costco. 😅
Bam!! Costco and 7-11..... great selection and deals! Have fun you, guys!! 😃
You bet! There's nothing better than a 7-11 and Costco run!

Thank you for watching! We're glad you enjoy our videos!
So many macadamia nuts, I'm dying😂😂😂😂
I use to drive 4 hours from Volcano Village there. Could not miss the pumpkin pie. Loved the $9.99 New York sushi rolls at the Kapolei Costco.
I wish they would ship some of those unique stuff mainland sometimes, would be really fun to try those Hawaii exclusives!
Had to give you a hesitant thumbs up for a video all about Costco-Kona BUT ! Get on outta there and see Hawaii LOL !!! Cheers and merry holidays L and B ! m.
Not to worry, we have 2 Big Island food and travel vlogs coming. Friday releases are generally walking vlogs.

Oh wow costco in Hawaii is awesome, I love the huge sushi platters they have. I’d also love to try those macadamia nuts 😍😍
Agreed, Angie, pretty awesome Costco!
I enjoyed the tour of Costco, so different from my local Costco.
Thanks for watching!
I can’t believe the amount of packaging on the fresh vegetables grown on the island
This Costco usually ranks in the Top 10 Busiest in the U.S. along with Maui and Iwilei on Oahu
Thanks for showing us Costco. So many awesome items that are not available on the mainland. Heck, my Costco doesn't have sushi.

6:57 I heard that NorCal Costcos and Reno, NV ones carry Hawaiian products and sometimes gets shipments of Hawaiian Sun
Costco is just stacking up on Food!
It’s been a long time coming!
Love that Costco! Excellent fish selection.
Purity’s Portuguese sausage is the best!!
🤙
We love Purity Portuguese sausage too!
Lau Lau soooo delicious everything about it is delicious! 😋😃
Hawaii Walmart is always interesting as well
You guys should come to the world's largest Costco in Salt Lake City Utah🌺🌺were I'm from🌲
Ba le pickled veg is from Ba Le which is a Vietnamese sandwich shop. Use it to make your own Bahn mi sandwich. Great Bahn Mi sandwiches. They are around Oahu, so give them a try when you're back in Honolulu. It was a regular lunch spot when I was living there.

We were on honolulu last week and just rushed in to Costco Alakawa st store. My daughter doesn't like going to costco. And this one was so busy! But I don't remember seeing half the stuff! Thanks for sharing this visit.
the honolulu store is reputed to be the busiest in the US.
Black Rock Pizza is life changing, they have two locations now. Try the cannolis too. 21 more sleeps for us🌺
Will have to try!
My costco has exactly the same thing because that is my local costco 😂.
Aloha 🤙
Nice!

We went during the weekday maybe 30 mins after they opened. Thanks for watching!
My friend and her husband fly to Kona every year and stop at Costco on their way to the resort to stock up on supplies. Thanks for the great tour. ❤
Yup, Costco and Foodland are popular stops to stock up for sure!
Time to fly to Kona with a big empty suitcase & go to Costco...😂
That was fun to watch. I wish they had several of those items you showed at our Costco here. Do they have the $4.99 rotisserie chicken there as well?
They did have the chicken, but we didn't pay attention to the price, we should have, but just wanted to focus on Hawaii items. Thanks for watching, Alan!
Bugga probably not no 4.99 anymo cuz
Can tell jes by da price of da laulau sheesh🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yes, $4.99 in Kona!
Howzit Kailua Kona🏝Alohaaa bill&lisa Welcome to da BigIsland⛱️ 🤙
Howzit! Good times on the Big Island! Stay tuned!
What fun! I love my old Cooke St shirts. Good quality - I must have 30 of them. I would fill an empty suitcase with those yummy looking snacks and cookies. And why don't we get fresh poke or sushi at our Costcos?
Great video, thanks!
Thanks for watching!
As someone who loves macadamia nuts, my stomach was growling watching this video 😂
No shortage of nuts in this video! lol
I memba when first been open
I was a little keiki still yet but we used to go every weekend
It takes my brother at least a couple of hours to drive from Hilo to Kona to go shopping at Costco. It's an all day affair. Crazy! I've got 3 stores within 15-30 min on Oahu. The neighbor islands only have one each, I believe.
We know that drive, did it a couple times during our stay. lol
FBI “From the Big Island”. Our favorite place to stock up.
This is our local Costco..The Lychee is good as 10% juice goes. Aunty Kana'is is good on Kalbi and sometimes she comes herself to cook some food with her sauce as samples. The Taro chips is high$$ but its good stuff.
Thanks for all the info and for watching!
Mahalo and a big Aloha.
Aloha Lawrence!
@🤙
I miss the hawaii snacks...
I love Costco! Any tips how to take Lau Lau back to Cali?
Can check-in a cooler packed with blue ice (but, check with your airline policy regarding coolers to be safe). But, if you're local to a Tokyo central, they make carry the same brand lua lau there.
HOW MUCH WAS THE GREEN ONIONS????????
Thats a great price on Lau Lau. Which frozen brand is your favorite?
We haven't bought frozen in a long time. We usually hit up our local L&L or Kings Hawaiian when we're craving it.
oh wow pinnapple gummies I want
You must have been there on a slow day. Usually it’s just as busy as the ones on Oahu.
We went midweek around opening time.
Aloha!! Another great video!!!❤❤❤ so much hawaiian food products!!! 😊 my cousin eats all those things!!!😂😂😂 the green onions are huge compared to ralphs and vons!!!😂😂😂😂 same prices for the food court😊😊 fun video of costco❤❤❤ thanks for showing us different costcos❤❤❤ cant wait for your next adventure!!!!!❤❤❤
Thanks Beverly! Stay tuned for more Hawaii adventures!
1st stop when I get off KOA airport
Those Tomoe Ame was something we loved as kids.
When we went Jtown with my grandparents… my grandmother would always buy us a little box each. The fun was having the dry sweet rice melt on you lip/tongue.
Bring me back an Island Princess bag….
Sushi looked so good.
Those Tomoe Ame are pretty tasty! We remember the little toy at the end of the box. lol

For sure…
Wish our SoCal Costco was as cool at the Hawaii ones.
@@billandlisa
I need your advice.
Emailed you
Surprised this Costco has the $1.50 Hot Dog and Soda!
20 years sir
Youloveitlisaandbill
No samples 😭
They had a few sample tables being setup while we were there. We got there just after opening.
Really enjoyed this and seeing all the different food available overseas. Thanks for another great video
We are glad you enjoyed it!
$2 per tomato, local grown. 😢❤
Some things are expensive for sure.
You mentioned your special toilet but I didn’t catch it but I did hear you say it keeps your butt warm. Can I get more information about what it is? I love watching you guys. I don’t miss it.
Japanese toilets often have multiple flushing options, a heated seat, and a bidet. Thanks for watching!
Did you happen to see how much Costco was charging at their gas pumps?
We missed seeing it, but their website currently shows $3.99 for Regular.
I can't believe you guys were at my Costco! So cool.
#653👍🤑🤙Mahalo
Choi sum is NOT Chinese broccoli!!! Gai lan is
Yes, thanks for the correction.
Hi Bill and Lisa. I enjoy the walking tours. keep doing them. Interesting to see the differences then our locals. Looks like you sun burning Lisa. Take care guys.
I also heard Costco is going back to Coca-Cola?
We're not sure what the latest news is on that.
Could you please explain what these things are? Sounds like a foreign language to me. I have not a clue what 1/2 of these are!!!❤❤❤❤
The Mele Macs used to be my favorite. I had 2 boxes shipped to me this yr. The chocolate tastes different, doesn't melt like real chocolate. 😢
We have yet to try them. Thanks for the info about them.
