skooma512 posted:Tower fans are kind of meh. Are these really that good? Yes. I don't care for tower fans in general, but this one moves a ton of air and has lots of different settings. I don't think that you will find a better fan anywhere near this price point, and you can always return it if you think I'm overhyping it. It is a very good fan. The only thing that I would change about it is making the blue LEDs not so bright.

Vornado is the One True Fan. Sticker stickiness comes out well with WD40.

Literally A Person posted:Wife and I got are getting a costco mortgage. I just closed with a Costco Mortgage. Truth be told.... it isn't super money-saving. You'll save $300ish of some initial fee, which isn't much compared to the $4k cost of the mortgage itself. The best part was, when I was on Costco Finance webpage, put in my info and selected a lender, they literally called me within 7 seconds of hitting "Submit." And after that, the lender was nothing but professional and efficient. Your interaction with Costco itself ends at that webpage. It was the first time I had done one of these over email, though. Makes it difficult to clarify things, sometimes. I scanned SO many paper documents into pdf, uploading them onto the lenders page. Pro tip: Don't do a VA loan, if you can help it. There are tons of more flaming hoops through which to jump. I didn't know that, up front.

Costco vendors are told multiple times over and over to kiss every member's rear end and give the lowest possible prices and best service because if they don't Costco will drop them without blinking. I was in a car dealership for my job and while I was working the manager was setting up the Costco auto program and the amount of warning and hoops the dealer had to jump through was nuts. Costco also warned the dealer that they *will* be secretly audited.

I went to a dealer looking for a used car through Costco. The guy gave me a decent price on a new car, and then kept pushing me towards a lease. I didn't buy anything because I was looking for used. I let Costco know when they contacted me later about my experience.

Dill pickle snowcones with tejin sprinkled on top is the best flavor don't @ me. Snowcones makers are tough to get right, but I'd have confidence in Costco make it work. Or return it if it sucks.

Costco needs a crematorium next to the tire shop. I don't want to be buried, just torch my dead gay rear end at Costco and get a hot dog & refill for $1.50+tax on the way out.

I live close to both Costco Wembley and Costco Watford (UK). Today I went to Watford. Holy poo poo. Watford is a loving mad max post apocalyptic hellscape where anybody under the age of 50 has died. It’s a little bigger than Wembley, but has five times the people, who are all poo poo at trolleys, and get lovely at the staff when their trolleys get moved. And this is early morning on Friday. Hate to see it on the weekends. Wembley on the other hand has been nice. Not too busy, pleasant customers. Still haven’t found the Kirkland peanut butter pretzel things at either, starting to think they’ve been banned from our shores. Also can’t find the hot dogs. Saw them once but never again. Also, got some Kirkland glasses. Very nice, very cheap.

Jacket potatoes are baked potatoes. You can find them sold in takeaways but in the US only Wendy’s does that I think. Now I want to make curry tuna and see how that is on a potato.

We did get a potato with cheese, but the couple next to us had 2, 1 with tuna and 1 with baked beans (wtf) Pretty sure this was under 5 pounds. No ice in the drink though.

So I have a confession, I've been going to Price Club/Costco since like 1992, and I have never had the rotisserie chicken until today. wowza! it's good. very juicy. I probably won't get it again because my gf is a vegetarian, and i can only share so much of it with my dog before he probably gets death-shits, but it's quite good and lot of food. Also our costco now has the Acai bowl, $4.99 which is a little on the pricier costco side, it's not bad. I think it'd be better on an insanely hot day but I generally liked it. not as good as ones I've had down in San Diego. unfortunately their only other cold desert is the fruit smoothie, which is ehhhh. I miss the froyo

I try to limit myself to once a week (mostly for meat, and occasional enchilada tray with premixed margarita bottle for special weekends). We do have the pb pretzels. Not sure which hot dogs you mean. Obvs they have the concession ones. I’ve also seen a couple other types in the groceries section. Never paid much attention as hot dogs aren’t my thing. You can always ask the manager person by the registers, they can look stuff up on the computer and can sometimes tell you months ahead of time if they are getting something in. skoolmunkee fucked around with this message at 19:40 on Jun 22, 2018 |
