Bonzo posted:Visa and MasterCard (called MasterCharge back in the day) used to be individual companies and you applied for the cards directly through them. The cards looked the same but the entire Visa or MC logo was the card, no your bank's graphics. My local credit union's debit card is a Visa as well. That poo poo is tacked on to everything. All I have to do is let my bank know I'm traveling and that poo poo works just fine.

I got a shitload to do today so maybe I'll swap my cheat today to now instead of tomorrow and go try the burger again sans dressing after working up a proper appetite, sure as hell beats what any other non-restaurant place can offer

Ask for a dog as dressing instead of the dumb sauce.

he's right for some things and wrong for others. I find costco to be generally more expensive than winco for: fruit vegetables poultry pork cheaper cuts of beef costco is better on: paper products dairy expensive beef seafood packaged foods/snacks Since I eat mostly fresh stuff and prefer poultry/pork to beef I find myself only ever using my gf's costco membership for cheese, milk, and paper products.

I really only go to those two stores and winco is off a major street I drive down everyday. I was just stating that i sometimes feel like the prices in general are overhyped at costco, they do got some great deals and even if I don't even need much I tend to go like once a week and just wander around with the gf but they honestly aren't the cheapest place around for buying everyday groceries.

I agree for the most part. If I'm just getting some basic groceries I'll go somewhere else where I can use those tiny carts. I go to Costco for stuff I really need and need a lot of. I'm single and live alone though so Costco isn't always the best place for me. When I do go though, I get my money's worth. Bulk frozen foods, meals, cheese, anything related to hygiene, etc.

Costco essentially provides consistent pricing on bulk sized quantities of product. Some are higher than a general grocery store, and some come in lower. Where Costco shines is the fact that 99% of the items are a known quality, with less mystery brands (store/cheap). Kirkland Signature is considered one of the highest quality store brands, and multiple products have been verified to have been produced by known brand names. Add in the unconditional 100% return policy (minus electronics, but at at 90 days is still better than most retail) and the value is there. Yes you drop $200-400 each trip easily, but at least the stuff you get is quality. Plus a dog on the way out.

Look, here, calm the hell down, here it is. This is it. It's a pretty sizeable burger. Got the sauce on the side. It was some kind of darker and more granular thousand island. As far as a burger goes it gets a solid A-. Basically a Costco Big Mac. Linked for UNFILTERED SHEER BURG SIZE. http://i.imgur.com/avSBhSH.jpg

Also I feel like costco expiration dates are always p far out on their packaged stuff which is nice when it comes to dairy in particular.
