where on earth do you live that milk was 60 cents a gallon, the national average is like 2.40.

Costco is like 3-4 for a 2 pack depending on which percent, which is certainly cheaper than most other stores here. Their milk and cheese is as cheap as you can get anywhere really.

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
Costco must have taken that really lovely Forbes article personally. In addition to stocking the standard La Croix pack (as they always did, gently caress the fake news), mine is stocking four other packs including the one with the weird blackberry cucumber type flavors. Mine is also stocking the palettes of Mexican coke.

PBUC. Can't wait till libelous, failing media institutions like Forbes go bankrupt.

Truly a blessed photo. The gods look down upon thine cheap gas prices.

I found that individually wrapped chicken so thanks guys. Yes, I understand it's more wasteful but as a sad, lonely, sack of poo poo it really helps because they'd all get freezer burned otherwise.

I also had my communion and it was divine.

Yea, bretheren, my faith is strong, and I gave a mighty tithe at the local church today, but the father, in his wisdom, seems to have abandoned Yoplait yogurt for multiple varieties of fashionable Greek yogurt. Are other churches following? Does the church now solely favor the Greek Yogurt Orthodoxy?

Reject the heathen yogurt, for Greek is the one true yogurt answer.

I attended the evening service at Costco and completed the sacrement, but alas, I was not able to drink the blood of our Lord and Savior, JS, for the food court was out of ketchup

Costco did cleanse me of both my sins and plaque though, as they did indeed take back the 3 year old sonicare for store credit, with which I purchased a new 150$ toothbrush. I joked with the cashier that this might look bad, but at least it's not a used casket.

Just underwear and socks. Maybe it's just my local costco, but it just seems like beyond the basics there's just like your local sports team fleece jackets and ill fitting jeans. The underwear and sock selection is lit though.

I work at corporate. Its really annoying when you come into work and 4 other guys are wearing the same shirt because we all got it at the warehouse.

They were selling North Face jackets last month in the Issaquah warehouse. My new favorite brand though is Gerry. Wearing the orange Gerry ss button down right now. It's like the Costco version of NF stuff.

fairly good, one issue is they never seem to stock enough smalls, medium or equivalent waist sizes which sucks. sometimes hunting through a stack pays off with the last one there. always seem to have shittons of lg/xl/xxl so if thats for you then go for it. also sometimes sizing is wack walmart-level with mediums often being swimming-in-it, other times its fine.

Quality is fairly good but does vary. probably the most problem part is it changes all the time and dont have a lot of options, or if you find one you like then go back the next week they're all gone (had some nice cheap polo-y shirts over the summer). their slacks were very good, but i found the button downs a little awkward.

I have found that 1 Costco may have 80% XL, but if you go to another one, it is 80% Medium. Seems to me they like to send all of 1 size to a single store.

I liked the Kirkland Greek Yogurt variety pack but it seems it was discontinued. But they do have Siggi's Skyr now, so that's cool. $12.99 for a twelve pack of vanilla and strawberry is a good deal as single cups are like $1.59 at Meijer.

They do yeah. That said, they will take anyone's credit/debit card so if you you can probably get away with lending it out. I've "hosted" people and they would just hook me up with a free rotisserie chicken or whatever for a tank of gas and a run through the store on their dime.

My Costco ordered too much of some Greek yogurt brand recently so just bought 12 single serving packs for under $2 total due to their firesale to get them out before they expire in February.

Feeling pretty good right now.

That depends on the store. They're not supposed to allow you to use somebody else's card to pay.

Besides, if you put it on your card and get reimbursed in cash, you get to collect the 2% cashback
