The Slack Lagoon posted:Mind if I ask what the discount on the Subaru was? I went last night and they said $500 off manuf. price but they never actually showed me the Costco price sheet, so I emailed asking for it. Hopefully they get back to me today The price sheet is confidential and they powerslam any dealer that lets someone walk off with it (though the better ones will still show it to you). Right now on Subarus it's a pretty hefty number under invoice (i.e. dealer cost) so it's a hella good deal. The only one that isn't is the Ascent and that's because it's super new as of like a couple weeks ago.

I've always had better luck buying at year end and hard negotiating on-lot cars. My last new car, bought in December 2017, was several thousand dollars less than the best Costco auto price. But if you are looking for a really easy transaction and don't want to spend the effort to maximize your pricing (or get uncomfortable haggling), it's really convenient.

Lol yea it does and tbh the guy I was talking to wasn't one of the listed Costco auto people. I looked online and the price for my car is lower online that what he quoted me as so I'm going to call the auto program

You're never going to get anywhere close to rock bottom using the Costco auto program, that's just the reality. If you're willing to negotiate on actual, on-lot cars (meaning the dealer is bleeding money keeping it on the lot, especially when the new model year is incoming) the Costco price is going to be somewhere between "nothing special" to "very bad deal". A new car is the second biggest purchase most people make. Be willing to negotiate, target on-lot vehicles, and don't back down. You will be earning literally hundreds to thousands of dollars per hour. Think about that next time you say "well I don't want to haggle..." it's worth your time. That's why I categorize the Costco auto program solidly in the "doesn't know how to/ doesn't want to negotiate" pile. If you want to leave huge amounts of cash on the table, that's your business. Just understand that you're doing exactly that.

I made my first trip ever to Costco last weekend. Truly, it is a beautiful place. I got some awesome apple and Gouda chicken sausages, a box of protein bars for half of what they are elsewhere, new swim trunks and enough poo poo paper to build a fort. Alas, I hit my daily caloric intake, so no Awesome Dawg for me, but I'll return. Too much quality meat and I want me those muffins.

Huge_Midget posted:
Took a while but finally got deep into both bottles. The blend is super smooth and fairly delicious, the single malt is less smooth with a lot more going on flavor wise but more bite. Between me and a buddy we both preferred the 27 year blend overall because of the smoothness. All in all not bad for 55$, although I think a bottle of balvenie doublewood is probably still better. The good part about that is Costco is carrying the doublewood now for like 50$. So I’ll know for sure on my next scotch purchase. Now I’ve been drinking scotch for years but I still wouldn’t try to act like I have any clue what I’m talking about. Usually for me I feel like I can tell a major difference from a 20-30$ bottle vs a 50-60$ bottle. When you go from the 50-60$ to the 120$ bottles the differences are much more subtle if at all. I haven’t bought a 100+ bottle yet that I felt like I enjoyed more than a bottle of doublewood. So take my no-class opinion with a grain of salt. The blend was real good though.

To be fair, I don't use the cling wrap a whole lot since I have glass containers I mostly use to store things. I do buy the precut aluminum sheets because those blades are always garbage and tear awfully, and I'm willing to pay a bit more for not having to deal with that poo poo and just yank em out, and this thing is like an infinite pit of aluminum foil sheets holy poo poo it doesn't end. I've had it for years and regularly pull them out to line my toaster oven's tray and stuff, its loving amazing.

EAT FASTER!!!!!! posted:They will use their long, Costco dick to gently caress them right in the rear end of savings is what's going to happen. I just called, and the opened a ticket for me, and said it may be about a week before they get back to me. I also left some feedback, for Budget Rental Car, in Las Vegas. I don't think they like Costco members. They had a separate line for Costco, and I thought, "cool, express lane." No. The opposite. They had a "first come" lane next to it, and that was constantly cleared before they'd pick the next Costco person. A Costco guy behind me in line got fed up, and went into the "first come" line... and he got through way before me. I would NOT use Budget, in Vegas, through Costco, again. I let Costco know, today.

I wanted to go to my new Costco's food court but the place is semi-closed to to a fly problem. They constructed their weird net cage thing around the entire food counter to keep the flies out lol This whole area are dairy farms slowly being turned into new suburban tract housing so it's not an uncommon problem but I don't think they were prepared yet.

I've eaten at the Ikea foodcourt in Jerez de la Frontera (Spain) many times, and it was really good. They always had a local entree on the menu, usually roasted pork shoulder (pernil) and it was reaaal good. The meatballs with all the fixins are great, and everyone likes lingonberry. Ikea hotdogs are also really good, with that Euro mustard and the crispy onions all over them. Costco is all American baby. I think these dogs can remain separate, but equal.
