Sometimes I make a trip for only a few items, but then I grab a few other things, and next thing you know I'm dropping $130. I grabbed some shorts when I went last week, but they're too big. At least now I have an excuse to go back!

We haven't tried the cookies yet, but the muffins are good. I just want to drop five more pounds before I stop my cut. Then I can start eating all of the extravagant foods I see but skip when I scan the barcode in MyFitnessPal and I go :eyepop:

The Costco near Edinburgh had Dalwhinnie whiskey cheaper than the distillery. Almost makes up for the crappy food court.

Get the giant cookies and eat one when you want to fall into a bottomless food coma, that's my tip

They do better in the oven but perfectly acceptable in the microwave, though the "seam" does tend to steam open that way. Solid addition to an office lunch although they do stink up the place with the smell of spicy beef.

Get the Kirkland Steak Strips thick cut jerky ($9.99 for a 12oz bag). I bought a bag the last time I was there after recommendations in this thread. They are delicious. I just need to figure out how many bags to pick up on my next trip. I'm thinking at least four.

Get something that they intentionally place right at the entrance that corresponds to whatever season or holiday is coming up.

all bay area costcos are kind of a shitshow

I'm about 10 pages behind, but I had to respond to this because it's so incredibly true that it drives me insane. There is literally no Bay Area Costco that isn't packed to the gills at all times and it loving stucks. I lock the 'stco as much as you do guys do, but braving it is, at least, a multi-hour trip there and back. On the plus side, there's one like five minutes from the PlayStation offices, so getting a dog or (as I usually end up buckling and ordering) a chicken bake is always a lunch option because of their open air, offset food court setup. That too always has lines, but hey, cheap rear end superdawg or chicken-chocked bake options are always available.

I just wish the version you could get in the freezer was even close to the kind you could get at Heaven's Promised Land, The Great 'Dog+ (and Refill) Magic Shoppe. gently caress me, that loving dog never disappoints. My diet says no unnecessary refined carbs, but I can literally taste and feel that steamed, pillowy carrier for that beefy, spiced tube of happiness.

PBUC to you all, friends.

Yep. Although the best choice a hot mustard (like a Colman's, not some chipotle crap) is not offered by Costco so whatever. I also reserve the right to judge people who put ranch on pizza.

Seems pretty not-Costco to judge a man by the sauce he puts on his dog. I knew a guy who claimed 'ketchup is childish' and yet had anime wall scrolls all over his room.
Be careful about where you place your judgement friends, Costco doesn't judge and neither should you.

40lbs of dog for for $25 is a steal. My savages were eating $60 worth of 30lb bags of Blue Buffalo every 3 weeks. $25 a month is worth the entire membership. Good quality too

I see the cleverly hidden ketchup in there, you loving rear end in a top hat.


BTW unrelated, but back in the day Costco would open an hour early and provide free Costco muffins and coffee for Business card people. It was the best.

Imagine how rad it was to eat free muffins while shopping for food with 20 other people in the entire store.

Unfortunately, a casualty of the past.

Ketchup on dogs is good, because there is no combination of Costco condiments on a Costco dog which will make it bad.
