I've been collecting expensive Costco cleance booze for like 8 years. Some finds: Macallan 15 year triple cask for around $35 Springbank 18 year for $105 Glenlivet 18 year for $45 Glenlivet Code for $50 I think half of my extensive whiskey collection is expensive clearance booze. I have no idea why they clearance awesome alcohol, but I check every single time I go and have done for years and years. You would be surprised what you can find. Even the super-duper expensive locked case of liquor sometimes has clearance items, which is where I got the Springbank. Taima fucked around with this message at 23:14 on Jul 19, 2019 |

priznat posted:My Costco renewal is coming up and debating continuing with gold star or going up to executive. We had exec in the past but the money back coupons were a bit of a pain because I’d always forget to bring them. Or even forget to use them if I had them in my wallet all tucked away. Executive gets you 2% cash back on everything you buy inside the warehouse, but costs an extra $60/year. 60/.02 = $3000/year break-even point. If you spend more than $3k a year ($250/month) the upgrade pays for itself. If you spend less than that, it's probably not worth it. E: There are some other minor perks if you go through Costco for third party services (e.g. auto insurance) where you'll get some kind of discount or deal, but most people only care about the cash back.

I end up getting it whenever I move house and know I have a giant pile of white goods or flooring or croissants or whatever to buy, also good if you have a baby and are about to require 6,000 diapers and associated lotions. Then I'll let it lapse and just run a normal membership.

Because cheap costco gas plus 4% back has been my goto move here lately.

Obviously this heatwave is across most of the country but I decided to brave Costco on a Saturday here in NH with 105 degree temps. Fire alarm goes off and everybody is forced to evacuate into the hot parking lot.

Some fire alarms are set for super low temps, like 120F and poo poo, we set off a bunch on a ship when we sailed from freezing cold Germany to hot rear end Texas in the early spring without opening more ventilation.

I was hanging out with a Costco marketing dude all this week and man, that dude loved what he did. We got drunk and I brought up how much I love Costco, as what comes up in any normal conversation, and he mentioned he worked for them. Then it was just back and forth about how great Costco is. I mentioned I had the CC and he said how great the card is and called it the "4-3-2-1" in regards to the cash back. We were drinking a lot so I don't remember most of the conversation but drat, that dude was on point.

today I threw a party for my three large sons. costco supplied the tremendous sheet cake (customized with their names, serves 48 guests for $18.99), all of the drinks, the veggie and fruit platters, napkins, plates, silverware, and I think several presents that the guests brought. slam dunked a dog in my maw before carting the loot to the pool, and an happy day was had by all. pbuc

if you an upper middle class peep and having a party to do the age-old social dick waving competition, you can't do costco things anymore because all your peer will also have costco memberships and know the costco things you got but if you're having it for like genuine reasons and poo poo go get costco so costco gives you signal if the party you're going to is a dickwaving dealio. pbuc

Toxic Mental posted:I just wanna say since I started the past 3 pages of pizza talk that even though I don't like bell peppers on pizza, I'm sure costco supreme pizza would be delicious regardless The food court is easily the worst thing about Costco, and I say that as someone who has been shopping there regularly for over a decade. They have no idea what to do with the food court. They got rid of the polish, which was loving idiotic. They should just embrace the food court being a non-revenue generating part of the experience, but instead they are bringing all kinds of stupid poo poo in an effort to make it a money maker. gently caress the food court. Now that the polish is gone, the best food court item I've had is the al pastor pineapple pizza you can get in Mexico, and it's so lit, but you would never get that in America. Costco needs to clean up its food court more than anything else about the store. Decide what the gently caress you want the food court to be. Ideally they would say "hey you're spending $200 per trip, maybe the food court should be a value add" but that's not where they're trying to go with it at all and it's frustrating. If they brought the rotating al pastor meat to the USA like they had in Mexico, it would be a slam dunk and they could do not just the al pastor pizza, but tacos etc. but for whatever reason every decision the food court makes in terms of its offerings in the USA is complete poo poo.
