Osher Ad אושר עד is a chain of grocery stores in Israel. It is primarily catered to the חרדי population - Ultra-Orthodox Jews. But, many Anglos that are less religious also shop there... But why? Because, they stock some Costco products from the Kirkland Private Label and sell items in larger quantities as well. Depending on the time you go, they change out their selection. Many people love buying the Kirkland Paper Towel, and Toilet Paper due to the better quality.
