Went to Costco today and got about 4lbs of this at $10.99/lb.

Last year I waited and they were gone quick.

Wow, that's some seriously good price on those. I've seen them go for as much as 3x that amount before at a fish shop. Maybe I'll have to look into a membership.

I'm assuming it's smoked salmon, right? How long will it last unopened? 4lbs is a lot.

Ah. Makes more sense.

Nice that they left the scales on there for you. Adds a bit of crunch.

Some enterprising sleuthing around on the internet by ME revealed that online price for Copper River salmon is around $25/lb.

I think I'm going back this afternoon to stock up more.


The salmon freezes well?
