THEIR AD calls it “the quicker picker upper.” And
there’s no doubt that Bounty Original Towels are
an excellent product. What if I told you they’re
even better at Costco?
Bounty Advanced Select-A-Size is only available
at Costco and is the most absorbent and durable
Bounty Select-A-Size paper towel available. It has
some features the original product does not offer
at other retailers. Like what? More paper fibers
that pick up spills really quickly. More wet
strength, which means the paper won’t disintegrate, making it more durable. And more durability
means your fingers won’t poke through the paper,
even when cleaning the wettest messes.
The Select-A-Size sheets are 7.1 inches long, 18
percent longer than
Bounty Select-A-Size
towels sold elsewhere
and 20 percent more
absorbent, so they
can hold larger messes.
Available in the
warehouses and on
Costco.com (Item
#1026681, #1030885).
May not be available
at all warehouse locations.—Erik Fulkerson

Tide Advanced Power
DOING LAUNDRY is one of those tasks that never seem to end. The least we can expect
is that our efforts will result in clean, fresh clothes, sheets, etc. That’s where Tide
Advanced Power comes in.
Tide Advanced Power has more surfactants—the core stain removers of a detergent—than Tide Original, to really tackle tough stains. They remove anything greasy
from fabrics and work well on stains and food residue, cleaning clothes deep down to
the fiber level.
The Tide Advanced Power formula keeps clothes bright thanks to its unique polymer
technology, which helps prevent laundry soils from being redeposited onto clothes, which
can dull colors. Also, the increased water-conditioning agents in Tide Advanced Power
work to protect clothes from chlorine in the wash water, which can lead to color fading
over time. The result: bright, vividly colored clothes that look like new, wash after wash.
Tide Advanced Power also features a dual brightener system and a special active
whitening agent that keeps whites brilliant; this enhances the contrast between whites
and colors. As a finishing touch, the fragrance leaves a fresh, clean scent.
If you are shopping for Tide Advanced Power, Costco is the only place to find it. Item

Dawn Platinum Advanced Power
DAWN PLATINUM Advanced Power has nearly 25 percent
more grease-cleaning ingredients per drop than Dawn Ultra
Original (Blue), and it has the ability to power away 48-hour
stuck-on food and stains in seconds. With the highest level
of cleaning ingredients, it’s the longest-lasting Dawn on the
market, cleaning 10,000 more dishes per 90-ounce bottle
than Dawn Ultra Original, according to manufacturer
Procter & Gamble.
An additional cleaning ingredient aggressively tackles
tough soils such as baked-on grease, burned dairy messes,
and mineralized tea and coffee stains. This specialized
ingredient works by attaching itself to and removing specific resistive components found in many types of food
stains, making them much easier to break down.
Dawn Platinum Advanced Power unequivocally provides
Dawn’s best clean and is found only at Costco. Item
#990929. Available in the warehouse only.—AJ
