Never saw water from Costco on GE.
yea depends on your zip code.
Some of us are luckier than others...

I don't get why because brooklyn shipments usually ship from outside of new york
unless his doesn't

Water delivered is a winner!

I would buy cases!!!

Which zip code are you shopping.

Not showing Kirkland water when shopping my zip code.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I thought so. But when I tried browsing based on 11230.

Gallon bottles for .99˘

Seems like 11203, just a few blocks from my home, gets same (in-store) pricing and product availability as 11234 on GE/Costco!

Indeed, 11203 pricing seems the same as in store.

Instacart will not ship to any address in 11203. Any idea why? They ship to 11213 which is a block away.

for $10  for whoever uses it

but mind the fees at the end.

$2 or so per item

Seems like prices at 11213 reverted to differ from in store prices after it had switched back not long ago. The website is showing the message however the app is not (although it's showing the raised prices). Perhaps it's while they are running this 20% off promo in app...
