my roommate made one of those pre-marinated tri tips last week and said it tasted like a hot dog. he was actually pretty correct. It was weird.

Still really good though!

The Costco ladies had this delicious Korean BBQ jerky for sale so I bought some and ate most of it and feel only shame, and the hunger for more

I am weary of loitering about Britain. There is much we could be accomplishing! Where hast thou been, anyway?
I filled a script at Costco today. CVS wanted $490 for 16g steroid cream. $41 even at Costco.

Also I got a $1.50 ALL BEEF HOTDOG WITH FIXINS AND PEPSI

I've eaten so much of that I probably qualify as half Korean. And that was just last weekend.

That looks good, I loving love jerky but my Costco doesn't sell that. They sell the pacific gold which is OK I guess but don't care for it. They also sell the costco streak strip thick cut one which I should try, idk why I haven't yet, I'll do that next time.

I bought this a few trips back and it's loving garbage. it's shredded into like little tiny pieces, it tastes like mush (jerky should have a good stiff tear-factor, not baby food consistency) and really sugary. avoid that garbage.

I finally went to my local Costco on Saturday and goddammit it was wonderful. What a magical land.

2lbs of strawberries for loving $4! I also live in NH so no sales tax :911:

Need to go back and dog out, though.

Nice. Not sure if any of you have Costco stock, but they just announced a $7 per share dividend payable on May 26, 2017.
I guess my trip to England just got paid off.

Edit: Stock price jumped $6 already in after hours trading.

I got some turkey jerky that was on sale there about a year ago. I don't remember the brand, it could have even been Jack's Links. Either way it was loving terrible. I got like 3 packs because of the sale and I tried each of them once assuming that the next bag can't possibly be as bad as the last one. First time I've ever thrown a bunch of jerky out. I should make amends by buying some meat from Costco and making my own jerky with my dehydrator.

edit: God must have turned a blind eye here because the nearest place I've found tri-tip is at a butcher about an hour away. Those tri-tip steaks were cheap as hell around Seattle and that was my go to steak for a long time. Come back home to Wisconsin and I'm just ashamed. poo poo, I'm going to start calling around now again to see if any local places carry it.

edit 2: I JUST CALLED 2 GOD drat BUTCHERS AND THEY DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TRI-TIP (OR SANTA MARIA) STEAK WAS......... WHAT THE EVERFUCKINGFUCK?!

Midwest. You'd think they'd know more about cows but hey, tri-tip might be too exotic. I need hamburger for my casserole but don't add pepper! Too spicy.

I mean, there are 2 tri-tips per cow. Do they just look at it funny and throw it away? I'm like... actually upset about this.

If I had $50k to invest in Costco, I'm not sure I'd be concerned about dividends to be able to pay for trips.

My dividends would buy me a nice quarter pound dog, however.

I bought in at $103 and usually reinvest. Time to be irresponsible now.

All this talk of hot dogs almost makes me want another one. I walk to the warehouse multiple times a week, but always skip the fc.

I was house-sitting my 'rents place last weekend for a day and made lunch. Raided the fridge and found a pack of 1/4lb Kirkland Brand All Beef Hot Dogs.

It was a good afternoon.

We love those. I hate it when some jerky is just too fibrous, dry, and tough, but those have a great consistency, and the taste matches the texture.

Pretty sure the staff already had a dog or two before opening. The perks of working next to unlimited beef, a quarter pound at a time.

I was just reminiscing on a fond Costco memory - got an Ultrabook that was like $2000 for $1300 or so on Black Friday '16 - and since it's Costco, I strolled in at like 11 am and there was no line or fear of the item being out. then the pops and I celebrated my purchase with dogs, lots of relish, some onions.

costco is great for buying laptops!

Now instead of the hot dog, have the bratwurst (usinger's, made in Milwaukee) with the kraut. I feel sorry for plebs that have to make due with polish sausages instead.

We have a guy that tries to sell AC units. He always says "Do you own a home?" to which I reply, "Your generation made sure mine would never be able to afford one lol" gently caress boomers.

I can afford 1.50 dogs and ice cold beverage all day though. Costco is the steward of my generation.
