Cartoon Man posted:The second wave of hoarding happened right before the vaccine news hit. After that it started calming down again. idk i was at Target a couple of days doing some last minute shopping and the multiple entire tp/paper towel aisles were just completely wiped barren, it was weird. maybe Costco is better now too but last i went even before the "second wave" all the paper towels were gone (tp was there though).

I miss free samples, I get why they're gone, but I never really thought about how much they added to the experience.

The samples seem to be back at the costcos here but gently caress that poo poo I'm masked up. They seem to be very not busy, so most people are bypassing them as well.

Ours has samples but they aren't actually giving anything out, so there'll be an employee with a forbidden bowl of tortellini like some kind of food museum display.

The 23rd/24th saw a church with a whole pallet of jamon. Today, the jamon was nowhere in sight. No half priced hams here. I was sad, but then I bought two whole chuck sub primals for tamales.

Throw that with some spinach, oat milk, orange juice, and protein powder for a breakfast smoothie that lasts me until lunch. It's too bad they don't sell oat milk (or at least I can't find it at all my store.)

I ran in to Costco two days before Christmas and they had some TP, but it was some weird brand with a 1-per-customer limit. They had a sign out front letting you know they had no wipes. I don't remember seeing paper towels, but they had lots of napkins.

ShowTime posted:Two Good yogurt. Low calorie/low carb. It's weird to be excited about yogurt but gently caress if it's not my one of my favorite foods and usually loaded with sugar. I tried those once. Chonani's lower sugar yogurt is better, the Two Good is, like, lacking on flavor I feel. I didn't enjoy, but you might!

Buying premade is easy and convenient, but making your own of any of these taste better and are not difficult. In the case of oat milk you just need a vitamix or ninja high speed blender, conveniently located on the appliance asile.

It was regular but now extra creamy and drat it's great. Longer shelf life than milk but goes bad quick when opened. 7-10 days. I had the displeasure of finding that out in a bowl of cereal. It tasted so weird too, it was bitter. In the sweet cereal I kept thinking it was an off bite or something until I figured it out. Since the container is good until two months out I didn't realize the product goes off when opened. Sadly I don't think we drink it fast enough but it's cheap enough.

Finally went back to church- ( praise be) No dog, but I finally got the bark box toys dog toys I have been seeing online but 1st time in store. Stocked up on the necessities of Kirkland vodka, Zara rum, Traeger pellets,and a bonus apple pie from the bakery, plus another pile of stuff that got me to three bills. 10/10 would recommend. Also decided to try the chickpea marsala packets in the dry foods, will report back. In other news, my citi/ Costco rewards balance is about 4x last years. Wife said we can blow it at the co’. 800 bux worth of led shop lights?

I browsed this thread back in, like, February/March? Mostly because I knew the pandemic was going to be a -thing- and was curious what people were thinking in terms of bulk ordering at these types of stores. I'll catch up on the thread but mostly I have a question -- Are there any similar threads for BJ's? I have search but I found none -- but maybe didn't search the right words or the wrong boards, I don't know. BJ's is close to my home and has online order/curbside pickup. I'd loooove a Costco but it's a few hours drive from here and that makes no sense at the moment. I envy you Costco folks though - this thread makes it sound amazing and I will look into it for certain purchases in the future. In the meantime, I have a BJs (guest) membership, and I am placing my billionth order this year. I'm wondering about "promo codes" - there's a box in the checkout page with a field to type/paste a promo code. They must exist but I can't find them. I'm about to drop like $400 on another order, so I figure I should look into these promo codes. I checked the usual sites that come up when you search but none of the codes are active. I'm also not the primary membership person (this is probably why I'm not getting promo codes? please confirm/deny). I'm using a guest membership from my partner's parent's membership. We never thought we'd use it so much but now it makes sense to get our own membership because we use it so often. I will enroll in a new membership after this new years eve order.
