Costco stopped selling Cascade Platinum (in Canada) (lemmy.ca)

Cascade Platinum is my favourite dishwasher detergent. I've been using it for years (https://cascadeclean.com/en-us/products/cascade-platinum-actionpacs-dishwasher-detergent-fresh-scent/)

In the last week, my local costco warehouse and costco.ca stopped providing Cascade Platinum. Instead, they're still selling Cascade Power Clean in green box (https://www.costco.ca/cascade-power-clean-dishwasher-detergent-actionpacs%2c-115-count.product.100483144.html) and they added a new product to the shelf Cascade Platinum Plus (https://www.costco.ca/cascade-platinum-plus-actionpacs%2c-81-count.product.4000230558.html)

I've tried the power green one, and I'm not satisfy with its quality: the smell of the food may remain in my dishwasher. The Platinum Plus is much more expensive than Platinum.

Does Costco changed the product line at your warehouse?

till sold in bulk but often packaged more for breaking up and selling individually.

Brilliant!

I just found that while costco.ca removed this SKU, costco business centre added a new SKU, which is exact what I need https://www.costcobusinesscentre.ca/cascade-platinum-dishwasher-detergent%2c-93-tabs.product.2001142484.html

I guess that costco is trying to promote the more profitable, more expensive new product from Cascade.

Personally, I don't think it worth my extra trip to biz centre for the detergent. Next time if I really need something which disappeared from warehouse, I'll visit a business centre and check if they just moved it.

Thank you once again

Many products, particularly cleaners, get regulated into the commercial only sector. I have to (illegally) ship trisodium phosphate (TSP) to where I live because government decided to blanket ban phosphates.

It's not always greed :)
