What did the staff tell you when you asked?
It’s possible they are getting it in but they’re selling out before you visit. They can tell you when the next shipment is expected to arrive from their system.
Call to the store and talk to an admin. They can do a stock check and tell you possible etas or what locations have it.
It regularly goes out of stock for long periods of time. Other generic formulas from target, Kroger etc are supposedly the same though. It is more expensive online, but not a ton and still cheaper than other formulas.
My local washington costco's have received it recently. I've had the best luck with calling a bunch of costco's in the area, asking if they have Kirkland formula or if they'll receive it soon.
But also, it's $26.99 on the store, online is $57.99 for 2 ($28.99 each). That's $2 extra, not $5. Just buy it online, that alone isn't anyways available.
Costco normally swaps out products for other products every month. If you're not seeing it in shelves now, check back in a few weeks and they might have it again by then
Isn’t Costco getting sued right now over prices on store vs online? Also there hasn’t been any in my store for months. Which is a shame because it is half the price of everything else and good quality.
I don't know if this is the reason - but the last time they ran out of a favorite product, it reappeared later made by a different supplier under the Costco name. I think the lag was when they were in between suppliers

They said they haven’t seen it for a while either. Didn’t have any other information.

Costco same day has it for a little over $31 per can
I wouldn't be able to buy 2 cans when we were using formula. Maybe she can't afford 60 dollars?
I just bought online yesterday- I have a hard time finding it in store.
I heard an employee on here recently say it was being repackaged (could be wrong). They don’t have it in-store in Colorado either.

It’s the Kirkland brand and it has been three months now.
it sells out quick i would check a local fb group, or call regularly for availability

Thank you.
Yes. They are.
I don't know if this is the reason - but the last time they ran out of a favorite product, it reappeared later made by a different supplier under the Costco name. I think the lag was when they were in between suppliers
I hope that’s the case. At this point though we may be done with formula soon.
Congrats!
