This is a good tip, my Kirkland Signature non-sticks I got as a wedding gift 15ish years ago are starting to flake so it’s time for some aluminum.

So, this isn't strictly a Costco question, but my freezer is constantly full to the point where I barely know what I have in there, so I've wanted to buy a chest freezer for awhile. I was planning on buying the Midea model from Costco that's been recommended here, but by the time I was able to line up someone to help me actually get it home, it was discontinued at the locations in my area. Would something like this be a decent alternative? I've at least heard of Frigidaire. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Frigidaire-5-cu-ft-Chest-Freezer-in-White-FFCS0522AW/313213581

My chest freezer is only half full and I have no idea what's in there because it all just stacks up and buries everything.

Instead of a chest freezer to have full of crap when you die get another normal fridge freezer combo and put the shittier of your now-two refrigerators in your garage/basement/pantry/guest bedroom to hold long term freezer stuff and beverages. Two normal sized freezers with stuff you like but can't get through immediately, one fridge with produce and delicious snacks, and one fridge just full of beer, white wine, rosé, seltzer, coconut water, etc. It's amazing, and also if you're not as much of a beverage person the second fridge is perfect for cooling things on sheet trays, holding big pans of leftovers or casseroles, and just dumping your Costco stuff into when you get back from the store before you portion everything out. But really it's a beer fridge.

the halloween wonka candy bag this year no longer includes nerds or sweettarts and stuff. It's like 30% swedish fish, 30% skittles, and 30% haribos, and <10% misc others. sad also weirdly my costco seems to have stopped carrying bubble gum (of any brand) entirely for the past year.

I've been leaning towards this more and more as time goes on. I already have a beer fridge along with my main fridge, why not ditch the beer fridge, replace my main fridge and put the old one in the basement? That way I can actually have growlers of beer and poo poo on top of not having a chest freezer where poo poo stacks up and I end up having to take everything out every 6 months to figure what the heck is going on (ADHD and chest freezers are not good friends)

We just got an upright freezer because we were finding that our kitchen freezer was constantly full and we consistently had extra fridge space. We're still filling it up but it seems less likely to become a black hole than a chest freezer. Having two fridges is a pretty nice lifestyle upgrade if you're constantly short on fridge space, though. Probably cheaper than an upright freezer as well.

My Costco had a big thing of Dowdle puzzles but no Costco one... so disappointing. Also they didn't seem to have vinegar? I've bought big jugs of vinegar there before but looked like they weren't even stocking it. cmon man. unless it's in some weird spot not by the food stuff

I just got my mailer and they have the 32 Degree Heat long underwear. A 2 pack (top and bottom) for $10.99. It gets cold here in the north so I'm basically wearing them at all times during the winter. I probably have like 6 pairs.

Get an upright, or have fun digging through year old layers of unknown frozen food.

Should I buy furniture from Costco? Is it good quality and good value like the food? I'm thinking a sofa, bed, and some garden chairs. Despite being a grown up I've never bought good, new furniture before.

No joke I have probably over a dozen pairs of these and wear them as a base layer all winter long. My WFH set up is in the basement so having the extra layer is ace.

Despite being a grown up I've never bought good, new furniture before. I've bought a power reclining easy chair and a modular couch from Costco, and both were reasonably-priced and high quality so I can highly recommend going that route.

If you order it online they add like $100 plus delivery ontop of the in store price. I've got a dinning table set, leather recliner and some other stuff from Costco. It seems pretty legit, people are usually surprised when I tell them its from Costco too

I'm not really concerned if they add more for delivery, if it's something I want to rely on for many years to come I figure it's worth it if it is of good quality and comes from a company that I (comparatively speaking) trust. Thanks for the information.

In my experience Costco furniture is a very good value. It's much better than your Rooms To Go, Ashley, Living Spaces and other lower end furniture retailers. Depends on the price point, but I don't feel you can go wrong with Costco Furniture. If you don't like it, you can return it as well. I've bought a dining room set, large dresser and nightstands from Costco, and have been very happy with each purchase.

The 32 degree mesh boxer briefs are just about as good as those exofficio ones for a fraction of the price. It's probably all made by Chinese children but everything 32 degrees makes is fantastic value.

I've never seen their regular boxer briefs but in cold seasons I wear the 32 degrees long underwear like every single day. They're just the perfect weight/warmth/fit/price.

The 32 degree boxer briefs are great, and the long underwear was crucial for me yesterday morning when I went golfing in the 45 degree outdoor weather.

The best part about the long underwear is that you don't roast when you where them somewhere warm. Most of the other long underwear I have start sucking when you spend time indoors, but the 32 Degrees ones seem to strike a great balance

I have stuff where I've kept in the chest freezer for a year and I put it in the upstairs freezer to eat and then forget about it and within 2 months or so the vacuum bags are losing seal or it's visibly freezerburned.

We bought 100 dollars worth of meat that our friend smoked and vacuum-bagged for us. We split the brisket 50/50, and it is amazing.
