Costco rules though. We bought taco seasoning and it lasted us two years.

I saw this on the shelf the other day and laughed. How many tacos does the average white person make a year? I get those seasoning packets that are like 50 cents, and grab a handful just because and I think I've used three in the past four years.

Our Costco, which is in Moreno Valley, still suffers from idiot shoppers. You will occasionally find cold foods, such as fresh cheese or meat products, that someone decided at the last minute to abandon in the middle of a non-refrigerated aisle, like right on top of the nuts and snack foods facing the check stands. It sucks because it definitely has to be thrown out, because there's no telling how long it's been sitting there, getting warm. Idiot shoppers.

I've never been to a Costco but my mom bought our first computer at a BJ's back in spring of 2001. A cheapo HP with a Celeron 733, 64MB of RAM and a 20GB hard drive. Actually ran Quake 3 alright once I threw in a video card.

Went to Costco yesterday and spent 360 dollars. I have a chest freezer with a half hog and shitloads of frozen costco goodies in it. Something else that I remembered that they sell cheap are big dog beds. A BJ's opened up near me and the pale in comparison especially in the meat department. I often buy a whole tenderloin and process it at home.

Get pork tenderloins instead, they're very delicious and they are in much smaller portions so you can pick one up when you need the "pig fix" and not have to consider the logistics of consuming every molecule of a 20 lb hunk of meat

Costco is great but some stuff I just can't use all of it. But those nonperishables are great. I can buy more toilet paper than god. Also their fruits seem to be better to me than the local grocery store's stuff. However, here in Maryland they don't sell liquor. I have popped into one in northern Virgina and the beer was pretty cheap, no liquor though. I am getting pretty desperate looking for it.

e. Also they seem to treat their employees well compared to other stores. And the cheese is good as are the take and bake meals if I am lazy.

Go to the Costco in DC you jerk. Unlimited liquor

Just went to Costco the other day to mix 6 gallons of Margaritas.

They had kirkland brand everything for all the stuff I needed and I do not believe in watering poo poo down.

but people drank more than 6 gallons worth of stuff and we ran out of the mixer, so I wound up just pouring in whatever Kirkland Grand Mariner and Blue Agave and tossed in whatever cut up limes I had left and hoped for the best.


I went through three bottles of Kirkland triple sec.

My girlfriend dragged me to Costco once. Shopping for deals makes her happy and I'm a nice guy so I indulged her.

Their meat looked pretty good, but the store had a really unwelcoming atmosphere due to the amount of crazed customers butting in front of, cutting off, and basically just desperately putting any poo poo in their carts. I saw trains of carts, two per overweight mother and father and the oldest daughter struggling to push one of her own, and it felt really gross.

And the deals weren't all that great if I stood back and looked at them. Yes, you're getting a deal on granola bars, but you're now obligated to eat a lot of the same kind of granola bar.

I buy the giant pickle jar and then individually wrap the pickles in condoms for convenience. Just slip one in my pocket and off to work! When its snacktime you just untie the end and unroll as you eat. The reservoir tip holds just enough brine for a little salty treat when you're done.

Also, the latex is just sticky enough that you can stack them up like cordwood in the fridge. So convenient!

yeah Vlassic sucks dick. Mt Olive is bad too. I'm really loving picky about my pickles :v:.

1. They shouldn't be loving sweet. god drat disgusting. They should be salty as the sea
2. they should have a nice crunch and snap in half when you try to bend them, not be more flaccid than LESLIE's dick
I've probably returned like $15 in pickles to grocery stores because of how disappointing some of them are

fortunately, costco sold this in a twin pack for like $5

Kirkland bacon is loving awesome and one of the only really good deals there of the poo poo I buy regularly. Stuff that should be a good deal but isn't, like an entire flat of eggs, is only like $.03/egg cheaper than the same brand from Safeway. Probably won't renew my membership.
