Yup, several weeks ago now, not terribly organized but it was fine. No cost with my insurance. Target is trying to lure people in with their $5 GC with free* flu shot....

My wife got it at Target and got her gift card. I was hoping Costco would step up and give out a free dog.

That's a good dip but the jalapeno artichoke dip edges is out in my opinion.

At Sam's club it's the same, except they're ugly and appear to have some birth defects that are common with inbreeding.

My husband and I just now got our shots at Costco! I had to go to the pharmacy anyway, so I just checked in with them, filled out our forms and got an approximate wait time, finished the shopping, and came back about 25 minutes later. We had to wait about 5 minutes once we got there, but then we were in and out pretty quick. Still kinda salty that the guy who vaccinated me didn’t offer me one of the little kids party favors he had on the desk. Those plastic clackers looked fun!

We also picked up the Shark Navigator that’s on sale this month, $124.99. Our apartment is mostly fake wood vinyl covering, but the bedroom and office are carpeted. We’re also gonna try out some of the attachments to clean the couch and our upholstered chair of beagle fur and basic wear-and-tear staining.

Also ended up buying new cutlery so we could finally throw out the lovely Kmart set I bought for my first dorm room. A Good Impulse Purchase (and $30 for a 4-piece Mikasa set!)

As always, PBUC.

Possibly. We went to ours this morning shortly after opening and the queue for the staffed registers was almost as busy as a weekend.

Hardly anyone waiting for the self checkout though.

Yep, with insurance it was free, so about 10 minutes of waiting and then they brought me back into a room to quickly jab.

The bulgogi bake is pretty tasty, and a nice lunch. I don't think I'll get back to Japan any time soon, but it was always a treat to grab one when I'd be in Tokyo for work.

No I'm going to get a shot. I'm going to watch it go in. Its a dumb phobia, especially given my high pain tolerance. Needs to end.

If needles are the issue, don't watch them. Most of the flu shots now are tiny rear end needles that feel like a pinch, turn your head and its done.

I got some korean rice cake and noodle meal 3 pack. If the bag being bright red wasn't enough of a clue the like 1/4 cup worth of sauce powder packet that must've be 80% chili powder 20% salt that turned the boiling water lava red should've sealed the deal.

It's honestly delicious, way way better then most ramen packs because between the rice cakes and the noodles the water thickens up into a thick-ish sauce that coats every bite.. Each "meal" is a two person serving, and just from spiciness alone I couldn't eat more then 1/3 of it much less the massive sodium intake.

With a large pot full of fresh veggies and meat this could easily be a family dinner. If I make it again I don't think I'll use more then half of the sauce powder.

Just got back from Church. Had the bright idea today to bring mustard and sauerkraut with me so I could enjoy my hotdog to it's fullest potential.

Noticed they had riser desks again, which I regretted not pulling the trigger on last holiday season. These look smaller though, it was $80 instead of like $160 last year. Hopefully I can fit two monitors on it.

Did not see the giant bath robes yet, which was my second regret of not buying last year. According to the employee I asked, they don't carry them after Christmas. (except maybe online?)

WHen I first started using mine, the feeling of a pristine b-hole was almost euphoric. And that was with a simple $40 bidet from amazon.

Does anyone have the office chairs from Costco? Both my wife and I each have one, purchased about a year apart, and they're comfortable and work well, except the both creak horribly. I greased some spots where I thought it was creaking, but it only lasted a few days before it started again.
