I had one a few years and years back (it was a 2005 Chrysler Town and Country) and I was actually pleasantly surprised by the turning radius I was able to bang out of it. I hated the look and I hated driving that far off the ground, but to that lovely car's credit it was a fine drive. It's just too bad when the maintenance bills make the car not worth it.

It always amazes me how long people keep driving those tiny things I still see 90's Hyundai excels on the road - pretty sure they would be mechanically totalled by using up the wiper fluid.

schreibs posted:My 7 year old UPS died so I ordered one from Costco....they sent me a package of cookies instead. I had to explain to the poor lady on the phone that a piece of technology is not equal to cookies. Sigh. At least they said since its a food item I wont have to send it back like the last time the screwed up....in November. To use the Coscto.com website you must ACCEPT THE COOKIES! Come on this is 2021 you should know this by now.

Amazon once accidentally sent me a box of putrid-looking okra curry, and when I went through the process of correcting the error they just told me to keep the okra. Two years later, it's still gathering dust in my pantry. Should really donate it or something, much better than having it get tossed by corporate.

I really do miss taking abandoned carts, and putting my own (lighter) items on the belt while the rest have UPC codes visible in the cart at checkout but covid restricts that stuff where I go. One thing I like covid changed at Costco is the absence of free samples. Finally, I can navigate through the frozen & produce sections! Right now, they have the same sample displays up but they aren't offering any food to taste, and I hope it stays that way.

The new ones supposed to be chocolate and regular twisted together. There is a listing specifically for california churros in the system though so I have no idea what's up with that

Hmm, wouldn't the chocolate melt everywhere if the churro was hot? Sounds like it's not very improved to me!

The twist is a little different and there's a different dough in the center. It was darker in the middle, maybe chocolate, but it wasn't obviously chocolate tasting.

Propaganda Machine posted:What's up with this, anyway? Are those displays at all effective without the goodies? They certainly weren’t effective today. I walked past and politely shook my head to decline. Then I heard the vendor mumble something about me being too busy to stop as I continued walking away. Might be the first time I ever saw one of the sample vendors really pursue a sale. And be all sassy about it. Very strange.

I still don't understand why they have someone standing there to hock samples if you can't even eat any. What's the point. You look like a moron and you make everyone around you feel sad.

A few months ago one of the sample displays was up and running, but they were giving out squeeze packets of applesauce for people to take and try later. There were so many run-over burst applesauce packets in the parking lot. It seemed like a total waste.

A1 is delicious but it should only be put on a steak if you gently caress it up and cook it well done. Now A1 on a hot dog, that's something I'm going to have try one of these days.
