I meant to take a picture but yesterday I went shopping and they had a bunch of these bigass glass chinese dragons full of loving brandy and I just couldn't believe it. What a store.

My stupid conscience resulted in a mediocre food court experience: Chicken Ceasar salad - it’s a salad alright. I wish like it tasted like anything; some black pepper on the chicken (or, you know, any spice at all) would have done wonders. At least the lettuce and tomatoes seemed fresh. Vanilla Açaí swirl - this was bad. I don’t know what genius decided it was a good idea to mix  . Not even in the same universe as the berry swirl. Making up for it now with some dark chocolate covered pretzels I foolishly bought and the two whiskeys that magically appeared in my cart.

Be careful shopping Costco online because of you can find the same item in stock locally and if that item is a large/heavy one then you will probably save a good chunk of change hauling it home yourself.

Hello Costco thread. I think someone mentioned in this thread that Costco had a a cordless vacuum that was comparable to Dyson but less expensive. However this thread is hundreds of pages long and I do think remember who said it. Any direction anyone can offer? PBUC.

I don't see them online but they might be in-store.

If I were to turn it on and let go it'd probably scoot across the room. The brush and strength is good.

MisterOblivious posted:Fresh or frozen? We're not really into the prepared foods but, man, some banh mi meatballs would be handy. They came fresh in a vacuum sealed thing with a cardboard sleeve. From the aisle near the cheese aisle where they have prepared/vacuum sealed foods. Fully cooked already, came with a bag of chili sauce that I haven't tried yet. I sliced some up and stir fried them with some chinese noodles and they were really pretty good. They browned up nice. Nice lemongrass flavor. Froze the rest of them. Its pork meatballs with rice noodle mixed into them, lemongrass maybe a little fish sauce flavor, scallion and stuff mixed in. Says "gastropub" on it somewhere. Packaging is mostly black I think, I already threw the cardboard thing away. Was 8 or 9 bucks I think, and a bunch come in there. I foresee getting my money's worth.

MisterOblivious posted:Fresh or frozen? We're not really into the prepared foods but, man, some banh mi meatballs would be handy. Do they make banh mis at the bakery or just sell the bread? You can usually buy meat from banh mi shops directly, along with their pate, which is normally homemade (and also loving awesome, and required for any good banh mi). Then you can buy pre-shredded daikon and carrot at any vietnamese market along with jalapenos and cilantro. At that point you can make banh mis all week, if not longer, for a fraction of the price of buying them premade. Another tip is to use kewpie, god's chosen mayo. The only thing that doesn't last is the rolls.

I'll keep a lookout for them. Taima posted:Do they make banh mis at the bakery or just sell the bread? You can usually buy meat from banh mi shops directly, along with their pate, which is normally homemade (and also loving awesome, and required for any good banh mi). They sell sandwiches but it's not a "banh mi shop." It's a mainly a croissant bakery that also supplies baguettes to a lot of the banh mi shops around. Selling sandwiches is kinda a side-gig I guess. They close at 1pm. Their pate isn't something I'd buy if they offered it for sale and the meat is pork loaf. quote:Then you can buy pre-shredded daikon and carrot at any vietnamese market along with jalapenos and cilantro. Another tip is to use kewpie, god's chosen mayo. That sort of stuff I tend to have on hand. Making the pickle yourself is trivial. As is the mayo. It doesn't take planning like marinading pork ahead of time. quote:The only thing that doesn't last is the rolls. Indeed.

I left my credit cards rewards check at home so I went shopping without it yesterday. OH WELL I GUESS I'LL HAVE TO GO BACK TO COSTCO. They had someone giving out free samples of paper towels. I'm not sure how you're supposed to eat those but, oh well.

I like when they give you a sample of some oats or dry rear end crackers but you're already in "Costco Mode" and just see sample cups and shoot them down immediately then figure out what you at after it's in your mouth. Inadvertently giving myself the cinnamon challenge since '06

Yeah, if I'm being honest that's as useful if not more so than most of the displays in Costco. Buying that much TP is a commitment and it's not like you can rip the package open and make sure it isn't garbage.

Chances are you've already bought said brand at a different store so you know what you're getting, just in bulk. Unless it's some mystery brand that only costco sells

I've never had a bad food court item. They were all hood. Pizza and DAWGs are consistent in being good throughout the years tho. The items they rotate in and out are fine. Never disgusting or bad. Also it's still dirt cheap so I aint dat mad.
