canyoneer posted:My mom still has those. Corelle Butterfly Gold supremacy! yeah, they're grandma dishes but they're practical. If you ever need replacements you can find matching pieces at any thrift store for a song. They’re pretty strong but when they do break they loving explode. It must be some kind of lightly tempered glass or something. Alan Smithee posted:and what of the cheese I have a bunch of pre-sliced cheese from a kroger sale a month or two ago. Would be good with some of the 'co jarlsberg though. re: picklechat, I tried the grillo's pickles and the first jar was amazing, I literally ate it in under a week (I loving love pickles). My second jar just isn't doing it for me, not sure if I just ate myself into a rut there or if this batch tastes a little different. They are definitely more of a half-sour pickle and I wanted just a nice crisp claussen for this. vvv yeah plain ones are good but they're harder to find.

pnumoman posted:Northern NJ goon here, the Teterboro Costco had an extremely long line to get in around 1 pm which I immediately noped out of, while the Business Center just 5 minutes away in Hackensack had no lines whatsoever. Cleaning products wiped out, but other than that, everything was normal. Unfortunately, the business center food court was completely closed so I couldn't get communion. This is the EXACT information I needed being a Bergen County goon. Thank you so much. My gf's mom sent us a card from Costco that says "Give the Gift of a Gold Star Membership". Can we register online, get a membership #, and worry about the card later or do we need to go in to get our photo taken and all that? .

Fashionably Great posted:Costco gods were smiling upon me today. Got in line about a half hour after they opened, got in after 15 minutes in line and by then they were out of Charmin and only had Scott 1000 rolls. I passed. Got everything else and as we're headed to the checkout, a Costco employee is holding a case of Charmin and asking people if they wanted it. We happily accepted. Turns out a sinner tried to buy two packs and got turned away at the register. They are enforcing limits on a lot of items which helps. Was there no kirkland TP? For the record, here is a comparison between charmin and kirkland:

I got some of the corelle embossed toast sized plates and they are actually great, I thought since they are thicker they would be more likely to chip but it's been 10 years and a ton of renters and not a single chip on any of them.

What they're infamous for is that, when they do break, they're likely to explode into a mass of fragments and glass dust that takes forever to clean up. This, however, is only a real problem with very old plates, especially if they've been microwaved a lot - age and heating takes the anti-shatter treatment out of the glass. Otherwise, Corelle plates are more likely to bounce than shatter when dropped.

Man that place is wild. There wasn't many people but it's strange seeing half of everyone with masks and everyone was so cautious and kept distances. The bad things were how incredibly bad my nose itches but I couldn't touch it, and the final bill, since we were 1 shopping for others, 2 don't want to be back next week, and 3 treated ourselves to some goodies.

Just wanted to say that scott 1000 stuff is terrible. They bought it to stock since the store was out of KS. Stuff rubbed my rear end raw after a week of work poopin, had to start bringing my own kirkland from home. Had some inspectors come by today for my 1 year inspection, first people we've had in the house in a month. They saw the pack of clorox wipes we had and were amazed and said they couldn't find them anywhere, so we gave them a package when they left. My wife has been giving people at her work packs of TP if they said they were running out and couldn't find anything. We all gotta help each other out as much as we can right now, even little things like that can make someones day. I gotta go to work every day, so grabbing something like that is no problem, but keeping someone from making a trip out they don't have to make helps.

Yes? The grocery store has been out for a while, but the Costco my boss goes to had the usual selection as of Wednesday, and I went to another 'co yesterday and they're stock was normal.

I made my last run on Wednesday, and there was plenty of flour--not just the huge 50 lb. food service bags, but 10 lb. bags as well. Also I managed to finally get some toilet paper; a good thing since we were starting to run low. Only basic item they seemed to be out of was chicken. Had to get that at a different store.

I wouldn't be surprised if Costco ended up doing a return on that stuff if the person complained enough. Costco will bend over backwards for you to make sure you won't cancel your membership.
