Lutha Mahtin posted:This thread has convinced me to start turning my barcodes up as I put items into my cart, that's an easy timesaver (and less lifting) for everyone involved Anyhow... especially for non-kirkland items you want those barcodes up; If you look at the design of Kirkland products they have like 2 - 4 barcodes on them, especially big stuff like cat food, dog food, and toilet paper/paper towels. That non-kirkland dog/cat food though? Going to have 1 - 2 barcodes. I noticed like Pedigree dog food eventually put an extra bar code on years ago, and I'm wondering if Costco nudges manufacturers who they have a relationship with to add more barcodes. lowcrabdiet posted:FWIW, since the pandemic my Costco has been asking people to leave everything in the cart. They've been allowing items back on the belt again in the last couple months or so, but some cashiers will still ask you to leave everything in the cart.

Yeah they have a slightly different method for it where it uses cameras and poo poo to watch shoppers and what they pick up from the shelf etc, and it is for little things like a single yogurt. I think they are expanding it beyond the pilot stores in seattle too. IBM had an ad for this wayyyy back in like, `99 or so and it made an impression on me https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FvHK40N87mE It repeats for some reason the actual ad is only 1minute long

Went to church today and it was awesome. It's a bajillion degrees here in Portland this weekend so Costco was really quiet for a Saturday afternoon. It was really nice. Got a bunch of chicken and some Breathe Right strips that my wife insists reduce my snoring (I have my doubts) at night. I volunteered my Costco account to my company to link to our Citi card since the owner had already used up all of his allowed shares, so now I get to double dip on those executive rewards, but last week our company card was compromised somehow (somebody ordered a bunch of Milwaukie tools with my card #, we contested the purchases, but then a ton of boxes of tools showed up at the owners house, weird.) so I have a new card on the way in the next couple of days. My personal card has worked fine this whole time, but when I scanned it at self checkout today they had to bring a manager over to push a bunch of buttons on the terminal. I wonder if my Costco account number changed with the new credit card request or something...

I can't eat meat anymore and I just had to do a costco run without my customary two dogs and a water. I cried about it in the parking lot while my confused fiance tried to console me. My stupid worthless gallbladder has taken away something sacred. I got four big bags of normandy vegetables because I eat them twice a day now. GODBLESS I love them drat things.

Spinz posted:I hope the owner isn't trying to scam somehow to get money. Yeah I hear you. The card isn't really connected to me in any meaningful way other than racking up rewards on my Costco membership, I'd never open myself up to credit fuckery for the benefit of the company. In this particular case if he actually had ordered all those tools I doubt he would have said anything about it instead of being just as confused as the rest of us. I figure whoever did get ahold of my card # just forgot to uncheck the "shipping address same as billing address" box when they made the order.

We demand the return of the onion dispenser. 2. We demand deli mustard be made immediately available. 3. Bulgogi Mandu shall be available year round.

infraboy posted:I like self checkout generally because there is always one person in every line that takes absolutely forever to pay as if it's their first time every buying something. Like I have my Costco card and credit card in hand ready to go once I see the total, stick that chip in the reader, get receipt and say thank you then i'm on my way out within seconds and debating if I should stop for the hotdog. You need to get the Costco credit card. Save yourself even more time because it is also your Membership card and you don't have to insert it to pay, just tap it to the top of the CC machine while they are still scanning your items. The receipt usually prints before they can tell you the total you already paid... Also the gas pumps now have tap to pay so you save time there too. Tap and it does both the membership and pay part all at once. I now go to my local CO for gas Friday Morning on my way into work. Never have to wait in line and it takes me 5 minutes to get my gas. Good for the weekend, usually.

Hi really quick I just wanted to give you some advice. Which is fresh vegetables, roasted. Take a look around on something awful for ways to have vegetables. I swear roasting vegetables can transform how you eat and it's super good for you.

I tried the Kirkland brand protein bars because the nutrition information looked genuinely good compared to everything else at the store. The chocolate peanut butter one is okay and the rest kind of taste like crap. So I'll use them for convenience when I travel or something but that's it.

Also those loving protein bars look so amazing and then disappoint so hard. My roommate is a pervert and actually enjoys the brownie ones. Animal.

They changed the recipe in the past couple years. They used to be real good. The cookies n' cream is still pretty good. They aren't as low carb as they seem due to the ingredients used. Before the change, they were one of the best low carb options on the market.

FCKGW posted:The cheese pizza has more cheese than the pepperoni does This is the case at many/most pizza places, just not to the degree it is at costco. It's easy to hide that you're going easy on the cheese if the pizza has toppings to hide it. Regarding Self-Checkout: I always use full service checkout at Costco because I don't want those cashiers to lose their job to machines. I always use self-checkout at Walmart because losing their Walmart job would be a blessing to those cashiers.

fizzymercury posted:Oh I roast all my vegetables. The best food on this planet is a roasted brussels sprouts and onions and apples. I'll stick anything in the oven at 425f to see what's up. Try roasted fennel bulb with cherry tomatoes, with just a spritz of lemon juice and oil. It's heavenly. Also parsnips. Brussel sprouts and onions is top-tier though, never tried with apples.

Not a fan of onions but I’m definitely doing it with apples and bacon next time. Do you season them with anything? I normally roast them with a little olive oil salt and pepper.

I do two small honeycrisps or opals per half sheet pan of sprouts and as much onion as I can fit in there. Hit it with some extra pepper, it need it. MarcusSA posted:Not a fan of onions but I’m definitely doing it with apples and bacon next time. It's so drat good with just bacon and apples. Make sure you dice the bacon or it cooks badly. I do olive oil, s&p, and a few good shakes of crushed red pepper. If it needs "something" at the end, give it a splash of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice. fizzymercury fucked around with this message at 19:55 on Jun 28, 2021 |
