We have the reverse in out house, the dog cleans and pre washes all human dishes safe for her consumption. Gets all those burned on bits out of the casserole dish quite nicely.

Probably gonna make my humungous cheese and veggie casserole tonight, use up the leftover cheese from the cheese board.

Is there any way when looking at the costco website to tell if something is in stock at your local 'co?

Does Costco carry any good high backed recliners or stuffed chairs? Thinking about getting a chair for my bedroom, and high backed would be awesome as I am a really tall goon.

Looking online it can be kinda tough to tell from the picture how tall they are. I need to stop by the local locations to see what they have on display.

Nope. Prices don't match either. Gotta check it out in person.
You could always call them with an item number though.

I'm pretty sure they do. The warehouses bring out most of their furniture around tax refund time so in the next couple months you should see furniture selection explode.

Yea, some stuff goes fast as well and may not be restocked, although it seems like chairs hang around for longer the sectionals and couches in my experience.

My feeling is that Costco.com and the warehouse operate as separate businesses. There's some overlap in selection, but prices often differ and everything I've purchased from the website is drop shipped from the manufacturer.

I suspect the costco website actually just dropships a lot of stuff in that they don’t stock it they just relay the order through a 3rd party. Still gets warranty and return coverage of course. I’m probably wrong though.

It's good though it might look better than it actually is i.e. it's a pretty normal subdivision and I got neighbors right next to me but shouldn't ever have neighbors behind me (both because of the power line right of way and my lot is fairly normal tract home wide but it's about football field deep) and I'm on the side of a hill obviously.

Anybody have any comforter/sheets recommendations? I need a new set for our bed and they always seem to have a nice selection of high thread count sheets and down alternative comforters. Worth the price?

I bought a set of the Kirkland pima cotton sheets they had on sale last month. I really like that each corner of the fitted sheet has a reinforced elastic band on each corner. Liked it so much I went back and bought two more sets.

Not really, no. Some of them change distillers often though, like I think the bourbon has been made by 3 different places by now.

The current añejo tequila is good.

It says it only lasts 3 weeks once you open it (no preservatives) so I have to plan ahead before popping it...

It's real good. When putting it on stuff or cooking with it I just eat spoonfuls here and there.

Make some enchiladas to freeze for work and put the rest in eggs and such.

The CostCo pulled pork is in its future, but that’ll probably only take care of 1/3 - 1/2 the jar. I guess I could freeze it; that seems obvious in retrospect

They’re whatever local brands get picked or work with them so there would be some variance but the one I had from Washington state was quite good!

I finally had a chance to visit Costco in Vancouver! The poutine was great but there's no way that one person should ever eat that much at once. My Costco Citi Visa card worked there even though they use Mastercard instead.

Also, I noticed that people were walking out of the store without having their receipts checked! I asked someone at the exit about this, he shrugged, looked at my receipt, marked it, and that was it.

I had some Bitchin sauce as a snack with potato chips today and just remembered about the calories. That bin is 2160 calories. Thankfully I have some self control and only had way too much instead of half a days calories.

We had the fun experience where you don't go for the holidays and break the bank on that return trip. Then I read the ad and realize I should get Mobil 1 while is on sale, and we ran out of rice, so I guess I'm going back to spend more!

I might test my theory on the fat part of town having clothes in my smaller sizes since I'll be that way.
