I just checked out my mailer that Costco sent out and they have my Champion Boxer Briefs that I'm wearing right now with $3 off for $9.99 for 4 pair. It's the kind with the technical fabric that breathes and everything. I think I got 3 pair at Target for $20.

ugh those always rode up my legs really bad and once my legs got thick from squatting they gave me the worst chafing

they have a kirkland brand boxer brief that's pretty much the same thing but they fit me much better

Big day fellas. My Costco got the 1030 calorie burger. Demand was high. The masses couldn't wait to try the latest invention from the taste factory.

Burger is ok. Not worth 5 bucks. Two frozen thin patties, a bunch of lettuce and sauce. Reminded me of a bigger version of school lunchroom burgers. Stick with the dogs and Italian sausage sandwiches you're used to.

Costco just can't figure out that last slot. The brisket sandwich got replaced by this.

At one point there were two overly aggressive retired white women blocking the entrance to an isle. They weren't even shopping, just standing there and talking.

I gave a very polite excuse me (or at least, the best I could muster) and made them move so I could walk through and got a death glare in response, before one of them moved to let me through. I then walked through the entire isle and didn't even browse.

yeah i dont get the point of the burger. the hot dog is excellent value, pizza is also good value and a calorie bomb. i think you want a burg, hit up like In N Out or something better and cheaper that also isn't >50% of your daily caloric intake (unless its gunna be your dinner I suppose). i never got the brisket sandwich either just beacuse, eh, why, there's a $1.50 hot dog right there and i could get 3 of them for the same price basically.

i'd like to have the option of getting a cup of coffee tho. some more smoothie choices would be good.

the death glares people give you when you politely ask them to move aside are amazing. like I can't be the only one who "parks" their cart properly to let other people through the aisles. no, there are people who just stop in the middle and strike up a conversation or wait for a sample to finish cooking. like are you kidding? if you were in a car on the road would you just come to a stop in the middle of the road and park? and then I realize, yes, yes they would. there's tons of times when i've seen people do just that. 10 minute conversation in the middle of the road while sitting in an idling vehicle, typically a big rear end pickup or SUV. and then I have to squeeze by them on the left side of the road barely missing cars parked on that side. costco please give me patience.

People being idiots in grocery stores is easily my #1 biggest irrational pet peeve in life.

I just wanna get in and out, just move out of the loving way. It's not hard. Every time you stop, ask yourself. Am I in the way? Can someone get by me? If no, then you get the gently caress out of the way. It's not hard people.

And stop walking with your carts on the left side of the road we live in a civilized country here

If you do the Nitrogen filled thing you are only ever supposed to top off with Nitrogen which means you can only do it at certain places. Using regular air once ruins the whole Nitrogen thing as it adds water vapor back into the sealed environment.

That is not to say you shouldn't do it just don't pay extra for it unless you can be sure you will only ever top it off with more Nitrogen.

I was concerned about this but the guy said it would be fine if I need to top with air and that I just should tell them next time I came in so they could fully replace with nitrogen.

My wife did this and the old dude was so mad and yelled "She's stealing my cart!" much like a woman would yell that someone was stealing her purse in a movie. We laughed and just kept on walking and nobody paid any attention.
It was right in the entrance too like gently caress dude.

I'm working on the new Toronto warehouse this week, and it's going to have a "shop front" food court that's walled off from the rest of the warehouse.
You can walk up to the food court directly from the sidewalk, or access it from the main entrance and a hallway behind membership.
It's a first in Canada and the closest we'll ever have to an outdoor one.

There's a high school across the street. The children will be incredibly blessed with such ease of access to hotdog and soda with free refill for $1.50

I have a question on refill etiquette. Let's say I purchase two hotdogs, one for me and one for someone who only drinks water. Both come with the a soda. Is it uncouth if I get 3 fills of soda, counting the second soda I purchased for my dining partner as an additional refill?

I actually received a random comment from another Dad at my kids school a few days ago: “Dude, I heard you make the BEST burgers.”
I was shocked because whenever we have a crowd of people over it’s just the 1/3rd lb frozen Costco burgs. And now I’m Burger Dad or something.
