flashy_mcflash posted:Hey what's the brand on that bacon? I'm hitting the co tomorrow to pick up some cards (Costco photo services for baby announcements y'all) and wouldn't mind grabbing some to put on, or possibly in, burgs. It's Jones brand cherrywood smoked Canadian bacon. I freeze one of the two packs in the container and it works out fine.

I've never had a leak or anything, and they even added the little wetness indicator strip to the bigger sizes! Proest tip is to buy 2 or 3 boxes when they go on sale (about 25% off) for maximum savings. By the time you run out they're on sale again. My membership pays for itself on a few months of diapers alone.

They aren't going to raise it until 2030 when it's beyond ridiculous. Then it will be $1.75.

the dollar fifty dogs days are numbered but yeah it'll probably be like 1.75 to 2 at most. with seriously inflation since the start of the dollar dog days, raising price of beef lips and assholes, minimum wage, etc i'm surprised costco isn't already eating a $-1 or more loss for every dog sold. we used to have $1 ice cream cone store here in berkeley and been like that for years. like seriously crazy flavors and pretty drat good. its went up to $1.25 finally, then a few years its at $1.50 now. still a bargain compared to most ice cream which is like $4 for a tiny spoonful of ice cream. just like costco's inevitable $2 dogs will be a steal vs $6 hot dog places Xaris fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Aug 1, 2017 |

You guys changed up my whole game with the suggestion to get the dog first. Plus you can get a fresh drink refill to tote around while you shop. Stay hydrated y'all. Plus I found a secret way into the parking lot that allows me to skirt the lines of cars waiting to get gas. PBUC Also, I haven't tried the diapers but the Kirkland brand baby wipes are the best you can get. Even if you don't have a baby, treat yourself and get some to keep by the toilet.

Serious post, I guess? My family has been working on paying down our debt over the last year or so, so we've been self-imposing some serious austerity measures. No frills, only what is necessary. That stupid Executive Costco membership has been a real boon for us, at the very least inasmuch as gas, vitamins, toiletries, etc. are concerned, and if you use your head you can very easily feed a family of four for about $150 a week, even less if you plan ahead, with good, delicious, nutritious food. Every trip I buy the Hannah hommus, 2 gallons of milk, a giant can of San Marzano whole tomatoes (STUPID cheap, and you can just use your food processor if you need crushed or pureed tomatoes), select fresh veg, a variety pack of sliced cheeses (the brand name escapes me, but it's got that Polish eagle thing on the package), the amazing Normandy or stir fry blends, 36 eggs for about $3.50, bone in chicken thighs (dirt cheap), a rotisserie chicken, and one or two select frozen entrees (our babysitter cannot cook for poo poo, and kids love tenders and fish sticks). Then, depending on what we need, I'll grab some odd staples (spices, butter, bottled water, olive oil, rice, Better Than Bouillon, which comes in a huge container for what your average grocery store sells the smaller ones for), ground beef and turkey... I tell you, my family has never eaten better, and we are spending about half what we normally would. I still get most of my pork at Wegmans, because they have the best, cheapest, highest quality pork loin you can find, and my Costco doesn't carry the country style pork ribs I love so much. Still, their chops are hard to beat, and their Boston butt is at the very least comparable. The only other areas I much prefer Wegmans to is hot sauce, bread, and canned tuna, but ymmv. Also can't get those Heinz beans in the blue can at Costco, and my kids love an English breakfast. Since I work really erratic hours, and I care less about what I fuel my dad bod with, I always stock up on the Jamaican style beef patties, and those goddamn Madras lentils over jasmine rice are loving amazing. Also, the attached liquor store sells a very decent vodka called Recipe 21 for about 8 bucks a bottle. The people are very nice there, they're always very sweet with my kids, and you can't goddamn beat a dog w/ soda + refill for a dollar goddamn fifty. That's my love letter to the 'co. They're a good company (as billion dollar multinational corporations go), and the quality of life for my family has improved greatly because of them. Some day down the road, when we've dug out of our hole, imma take my family to Disney World through one of those sweet, sweet Costco vacation packages, and it's gonna be loving awesome. PBUC One caveat, I find the Kirkland brand bacon to be very... meh? Can't win 'em all, I guess. quote:Plus I found a secret way into the parking lot that allows me to skirt the lines of cars waiting to get gas. PBUC Same.
