I was surprised to see no one had posted this yet. It's a really good deal. Costco is giving out its annual "Passport to Savings" booklets (I think that's what they are called) now. Anyway, until this Saturday, one of the coupons for this week is for $10 off cases of Red Bull. Regular price: $31.99.

It's supposed to be limit one per customer, but if you don't mind waiting in line a couple times, you can end up with a few cases. Getting extra coupons is easy as these booklets are usually littering the parking lots of Costcos! :)

Hope you guys find this as hot as I did (I picked up 6 cases)! Paid $1.07/drink after tax and deposit!

But at Costco things come in bonus packs and are supersized. These are probably a 24 pack of 16oz cans versus a dozen 8oz cans at Wally Mart.

Get the Monster right next to it. Red Bull sucks. They're the tiny cans BTW, I've bought them before from Costco.

They don't make Red Bull in larger sizes than the 8oz.

Still a great deal than paying close to 7 or 8 bucks a 4-pack at the local grocery or gas station

does red bull really work that well? i tried it a few years ago when i was still in college trying to study for finals, didn't work, never tried it again.

i can vouch for the fact that this deal is good, i was at costco this weekend and saw this, it was exactly the same as the OP described it

The can is too small to have any noticeable physiological effect, the effect is more psychological. But with other energy drinks, the ones that come in the 16oz cans (Rockstar, Monster, etc.), have a much greater noticeable effect. Red Bull is overhyped marketed POS imo.

No product can satisfy your body as a replacement for sleep.

If your body is telling you that you need sleep, there's a reason.

Red bull isn't the sort of thing you drink when you need to pull an all-nighter, red bull is what you drink when you feel worn down and it's too early to early in the day for a reasonable bed time.

Red Bull works for me. I try to avoid soda/caffeine for the most part so when I take dose of this stuff, I notice it. Also, Red Bull doesn't contain corn syrup like 90% of the other energy drinks out there.

Generally, I've noticed the stuff stays in my system for about 12 hours.

Actually Red Bull is the original.


All the others are copy-cats.


It was invented in Thailand; now it is made in Austria.

The only way I like Red Bull is with a shot of Jagermeister in it. Jager Bomb!!
