I was at Costco and they had the LR Healthy Food Set for $19.99.

It's a great deal, now if only they would get the Smart Snacks set back.

It's $19.99 for each meal, not $19.99 for all 3 meals, right? That would be a SUPER deal.

I got it for $19.99 for ALL THREE! It was a major hit with DS, who loves to 'cook' with his nanny:)

ETA: the contents of the set at Costco are slightly different from those pictured on the Learning Resources website, but very close.

Fabulous deal! We've loved our Smart Snacks combo from there. This prompted a special trip for me tonight with only the youngest kiddo (he doesn't blab yet). Scored some fun gifts!

I picked up one of these sets the other nite at my Toledo, OH Costco. They had quite a few of them in stock. Great deal!

thanks from me too! i picked up a set for my boys and rang a girlfriend w/ a 3-year old former micro-preemie who has sensory and eatting issues. she's got me on the lookout for food-related items for her little one and this is a perfect fit for that.

The $19.99 price for all three sets is a fantastic deal compared to prices elsewhere. I see that the sets are very popular. But can someone explain to me why it is normally more expensive and better than other plastic food sets? I know that there are a lot of cheap, big tubs of plastic food out there, and I just wanted to know how the Learning Resources play food are different. Is it just more "true to size"? Or is it better quality in other ways?

Is this still available? Is there any way to check on their website?

They were still in my Costco this morning. Use the number provided in a prior post and call your Costco - they will be able to tell you if they have it in stock over the phone.

Very cute. I assume the food is nicer than your typical plastic play food. Mine never had the Smart Snacks set last year. I guess I should call and see if they have this, but I'm not crossing my fingers.

Mine had a HUGE pile of them for a couple of weeks, but they were gone when I was in there yesterday. I'd definitely call to check your store's stock before making a special trip!

Mine said they did have some, but are all gone now and don't plan on getting anymore. None of the other stores in a 60 mi radius have them either.

we picked this up back in OCT and the kids LOVE the set. Yes it's life size fruit/cups. The baskets are cute too. Personally I like wood better but I'm a learning resources fan so I can't say anything bad about this product. :D if you can get your hands on it, definetly get the set, it's a steal @ this price!

I bought this a month or two ago and hadn't seen it since until today. My store now has a giant stack of them. Worth it to look again just in case.

I just thought I would pass along that we called our local store and gave them the Item number and they had 11 in stock this week. We don't have a membership, but DH"s boss was nice enough to go and buy this set for us. It was only $10 when he bought it so even cheaper. Worth a phone call if you are still looking.

thank you for the reminder. :) I was too late in purchasing this at my local Costco's, but I found out that the Costco's 30 minutes away has some in stock. Not sure if it's worth the 25-mile drive with my 3-year-old though.

Santa delivered them to our house and these are really cute. For anyone who needs to add to their food stock, these are worth a call and if still in stock, worth going. Esp. at $10-$19. There is so much food and all healthy options. DS hasn't stopped making us eggs and toast, serving OJ and milk, and eating his grilled chicken and peas. Too cute, and not flimsy.

unfortunately, we don't have any costco's anywhere around here!

But I would love 1 of the sets. My kids would love the baskets!
