They're on a condiment island away from the fountain drinks now over where some stores have the self-serve order stations. It's over here, but replace the terminals with condiments. Sorry, didn't get a picture.  a

Like i could understand it at most normal places where some clueless poo poo waits till they hit the counter to spend 10 minutes deciding what they want or customizing their order but generally at costco people just walk up, ask for something, and by the time the chip processor is done reading their card they've got their food and are on their way. You only got a handful of options and they're not designed for special orders, no one really seems to gently caress it up.

Idk for every 10 normal "hot dog please" orders, there is the family fatriarch who somehow spends $40 at the Costco food court, and then stands in front of the cash to wait for it and glares at every order that goes out the window. Either because they perceive others are being served ahead of them, or because they are scared someone might take their food. Maybe both?

Which Costco is this? I just checked out the business center yesterday, it's like Costco meets Restaurant Depot. Much larger variety of similar products, which is not Costco's MO, but also has lots of commercial kitchen and cleaning stuff well as office supplies and bulk vegetables/meat.

All my local Costcos have that kiosk now. The worst part is that there’s a dedicated window for pickup but no line so a bunch of people are just kinda milling around and gettin in the way of the regular line, it’s kind of a mess.

Either because they perceive others are being served ahead of them, or because they are scared someone might take their food. Maybe both? Those people would probably just take even longer at a self checkout tho. We had a bunch of groceries stores here that tried to swap their express lanes for self checkouts but eventually gave up and took them out because people are too stupid to use machines and often somehow missed the should be intuitive aspect of "you shouldn't show up to these with a cart full of groceries, just use the regular line".

My Costco has replaced the Polish dog with a vegan salad. Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?

The vegan al pastor salad, the chicken Caesar, and the fruit smoothie are all loving horrible. I’m starting to look for alternative lunch places now. Even once every week or two is too much. But the 96’ of LED cafe lighting that I strung up today for $.03 cheaper than harbor freight incandescent lights redeemed the day.

ArbitraryC posted:Those people would probably just take even longer at a self checkout tho. I've never used a self checkout lane that didn't drive me completely nuts with how lovely they are. I only use them if I have 1-2 items (which I guess is the entire point) I did my time in the retail salt mines working a register. It's not rocket science. So then why does my self checkout register need random rear end sensors that get mad when I put a bag a little too far to the left, or refuse to work at all if you go too fast?

We have one! He chills in the corner of our bedroom. We named in Henry. Also he was like twenty Freedom bucks or so what the gently caress up with that price tag. Unless my fiance was wrong about the price, she bought him before I met her.

Fellow members. Give me your absolute hottest rundown and haul to make my BBQ next Saturday the most bumping. Obviously hamburgers and hot dogs is a given but I'm going to just grill all day long. What are we making

Get chicken Satay skewers, the korean bbq takeaway, some flap meat for carne asada, and your choice of burgers, ribs or hot dogs and youll be set on the grill. Pair with your favorite beerpacks, and grab a set of the Mexican cokes, Fantas, and maybe some LaCroix for the hipsters. Dont forget to get the picnic pack of condiments, and a jumbo mayo. You can also get the 24 pack of eggs, some pasta, and the pre-shredded rotisserie chicken for your sides and salads. Add guacpaks and chips of various types for to keep happy the crowds. Dessert can be the cube of assorted ice creams. FilthyImp fucked around with this message at 15:25 on Jul 2, 2018 |
