Whatever brand of Artichoke dip they have at Costco is a must for summer BBQs.


Its insanely calorie dense IIRC.

Thinking about making a batch of fresh kielbasa so I'll probably be walking out of Costco with 20 lbs of pork this weekend. I will also be walking out with my refilled drink after finishing my Polish dog in the food court.

All things are possible through Costco, PBUC

Brothers, I'm about to face one of the worst nightmares ever. I need to go to the 'sco on a Friday at 5 PM. I'm fully expecting Thurderdome in the parking lot. And feeling murderous rage as an rear end in a top hat leave his cart blocking the aisle while he tries to eat every sample at once.

Went tonight despite it being the Friday before the 4th. They had EVERY CHECKOUT OPEN! Grabbed the milk that mandated my visit, some kirkland sangria, spicy poke (the first time it has been in my NJ location), shrimp from the seafood festival, and a whole cheese pizza from the food court that Ihad been waiting for me because I called in my order from the parking lot. Of course, I scored a hotdog combo for the ride home.

God bless America

5PM is actually not a bad time on any weekday, even on Fridays. The guard is changing- the old people are calling it a day and the commuters are on their way home.

I caught up on like 20 pages of this thread and immediately left to go to Costco to get a dog and do some 4th of July cookout shopping.

My Costco is new and about 10 minutes away from both work and home.

yeah, the Costco near my work is practically empty at 5:15 on every weekday i've gone

Meiji Hello Panda cookies are on sale, and half of the carton i bought easily filled up the Halloween candy bowl that i use to keep snacks in during the rest of the year

Wasn't that bad here around 2:30. Got my 20 pounds of chicken to brine tomorrow in preparation for the 4th and had time to browse, grab a dozen croissants cause why not and of course get my dog.

Oh it was loving thunderdome. Lets set a scene. This is Tucson. People here drive like loving retards no matter the weather, time of day, road conditions etc. This is the closest Costco to the Mexican border, so on your average day, a quarter of all plates in the lot are Sonoran plates. And 90% of them have no regard for silly things like traffic rules and such. Lets add a loving traffic circle at the entrance to Costco and put this fucker right off Interstate 10. Now, let's have all the samples out, and lets add 400 lb assholes walking 3 carts wide down aisles and then stopping for samples. That's what I endured just to get a loving rotisserie chicken. I would have got a dog and a soda, but the 63 people in line made that impossible. They just added tape down to show people that they should form a snake line to get the counter. gently caress that lets just get in one LONG 60+ person line and ignore the poor employee trying to herd you assholes into a semblance of order.

The tape is not that loving hard to get right but no one does it at my costco either. Not as bad a transgression as bringing your loving cart tho

imo do it.

costco stock is p much going to keep going. constantly breaking membership and sales recs and cautiously opening more stores. its mostly down because of the amazon->wholefoods thing but i think that's going to peter out, probably not outright fail but WF was already on decline and bezo cash injection probably isn't going to change they're just flat our losing customers now that less people care about organic nongmo $10 juices and poo poo.

I find that my checks basically make up the difference between getting an executive membership vs. getting a basic membership every year, so I stick with the executive.
