One of the coupons at the door is for 2,500 off the everyday price of 12,500 for an entire pizza pie. The coupon makes the pizzas 10,000 won each!
The pizzas are: Combo, Cheese, and Bulgogi.
The dates on the counpons are 7/20-7/26.

12,500 is pretty cheap itself.

Picked up two yesterday to freeze in individual slice portions. Figure I'll knock em off one-by-one over the next month or two.

Good point- pizza can be frozen. Just buy some freezer bags and freeze the individual slices.

12,500 is cheap?! A pizza would have to be less than 5k to be considered cheap. You can get delivery pizzas for less than 12,500.

Costco's pizza is not that great. The dough is gooey and the toppings are sparse. Those 5000 won pizzas are a much better deal.

Costco pizza *at costco* sucks. Take it home and throw the pie in the oven for another 10 minutes or so, it's edible then.

We cut them into 1/4's and freeze them. Then they fit the size of our Korean-style oven just right. Man, we can eat cheap!

Yeppers. The pizza isn't bad either. Good price, good taste.

The line has been long both times this week I've picked up bulgogi pizzas at the Ilsan Costco. I also picked up a couple boxes of 20 500ml Gatorades for 13,900- perfect for the summer. Wink

HomePlus sells large pizzas at only 7,000won each...

The garlic bread is also 7,000won (for a package of two garlic bread) - tastes great too. (Real garlic bread - not Korean sugary-coated rubbish).

Apparently, it's one cart per person at CostCo. Used two carts and was told that an employee would push the second cart around the store. Has this happened to anyone else or is it because I am beautiful?
