Grocery store rotisserie chicken is a delicious and affordable way to add protein to your shopping excursion, and there's arguably no better option than Costco's rotisserie chicken (it took the top spot in our ranking of grocery store rotisserie chickens, after all). This pre-cooked, pre-seasoned chicken is hot and ready in the deli, just waiting for you to take it home after your giant haul at the wholesale retailer. If you've been wary of buying a rotisserie chicken because you fear how long it's been sitting in its package, we have good news. According to Costco superfans and authors David and Susan Schwartz, both of whom spoke with Business Insider, each chicken is available to customers for around two hours. After that, employees remove the time-stamped chickens from the shelf, and they're repurposed into other Costco deli offerings.

My grandma is an original “little treat” treasure hunter. When my siblings, cousins and I were growing up, we could always count on her for a small bite of something fun: a sweet or a piece of candy, a cookie of some kind, a bite of a pastry, a handful of cheese balls or some mini sandwich crackers. Grocery shopping with her in American and international markets was always an adventure because she encouraged flavor exploration. No wonder then that, now as an 80-something-year-old, the highlight of her week is a trip to “Ah-Jo!”—what she adorably calls Trader Joe’s in the last remnants of her heavily accented, infrequently used English.
