The Normandy veggies seem like they would be pretty bland. It's just broccoli/cauliflower/carrots, right? Do you jazz em up a bit or what

The possibilities are endless with kirkland signature normandy veggies A lil' bit of oregano 'n basil + balsimic vinegar = italian deliciousness A lil' bit of cumin 'n chili powder + bbq sauce = southern deliciousness A lil' bit of ginger 'n teriyaki sauce = asian deliciousness A lil' bit of curry powder 'n garam masala = indian deliciousness Your imagination is the limit!

Is everyone aware that you don't need a membership to use the food courts, even the indoor food courts?

Why wouldn't you have a membership though? That is crazy talk.

You don't even need a Costco membership to breath air but I see no point in doing one and not the other.

As to you sample poo-pooers, my dudes... The amount of stuff I never would have looked twice were it not for those samples. Especially school snacks. They're worth tolerating for the net good they do, even for all the land pigs you need to circumnavigate to get to them.

There aren't many, but some Costco locations are much stricter on showing your membership card upon entry than others. In my personal experience, they are really only strict in locations where there are potentially a lot of homeless dudes.

Just bought a pack of the Amylu chicken andouille sausages based on a free sample. Can't wait to dig into those.

Went to Micro Center yesterday, and when I was checking out I asked how much they were selling the 256GB USB sticks for. Dude told me $70 something. When I balked, he mentioned that Costco had them for $40 something. Employees of rival companies must still bend the knee to Costco.

If any of you lurkers are reading the thread and do not have a Costco membership yet, you are in luck because Groupon has an amazing deal on one! https://www.groupon.com/deals/grpn-costco-membership-731-fresno For the $60 membership fee you'll get:
New members only sadly

So I suggested that Costco membership to my folks, and turns out they have a sams club membership. Instead of instantly telling them to gently caress off with that, I actually did some research. There are lots of tradeoffs, but the most important thing is definitely the food court. Does this look familiar to any of you?

Sams club is garbage and payss+treats workers like absolute poo poo and it shows in how awful their stores and quality are too. almost yearly there's articles about how costco is running circles around walmart-sams with lower prices still despite paying/comping their workers 200% more support costco

Go with the Polish. It's like the hot dog flavor turned up to 11.Dr. Tim Whatley posted:Kirkland brand bacon is almost flavorless. The thick cut is good though. I like the bacon, I don't have to dig through piles and piles of packs of bacon to find ones that aren't 99% fat. Every slice in the package is legit quality. Also its something like $3? a pound, which is like half the grocery store price.

I went today and got gas, the dog before shopping as people recommended, and some needed clothing. If anyone is on the fence and considering that Groupon deal, do it; I want to get a second ID to get that deal goddamn.

What happens if I don't stop for the receipt checker at the door? I mean, I'm sure it says in my membership agreement that I have to let them check. But what would they physically do about it? They aren't cops, they can't hold me there, and I don't have to tell them who I am. I guess they could take my picture and post it on some wall of undesirables... now, I'm not gonna actually do this because what would be the point, but I'm curious how the employees are told to respond to this.

They call the cops and you get arrested.

You would never get arrested if you didn’t steal. You might be told not to return though under threat of trespassing charges.

I asked the manager once and he said they literally call the cops, revoke your membership and send you to the pokey.
