Looks like my mother was wrong to under estimate the intense drinking that happens after a wedding. Kirkland french vodka,spiced rum, and gin here i come! Booze snype!

My local Costco doesn't have the Kirkland alchohol due to lovely state alcohol permitting so sometime soon my wife and I will make pilgrimage and drive an extra 20minutes to get to one of the two other Costco's nearby that both carry alcohol. I am truly blessed to be within 35 minutes of 3 different churches PBUC

My printer died over the week. Thankfully Costco had the best price on the highest rated HP color laser multifunction thingamabob. Praise be, we can print at home again.

Sticky posted:Greetings friends, I was out of town this week and stopped at a foreign New Jersey Costco and got the (french) vodka and the 7 year old bourbon. I was gonna get the 20 year speyside but they had a couple bottles of Paul John Brilliance Single Malt and I couldn't say no to that. Wayne or Edison?

GORDON posted:I bought one of those a couple months ago, to replace an ancient HP All-In_One deskjet. Third party toner off amazon maybe? Reviews said a full set of the full OEM XL toner (read:regular size) was like $700, double what I paid for the printer and starter ink.

hakimashou posted:good way to lose your costco membership bud Yeah they'll nail me on my first return, ever. They should put the toner next to the printer, with the cost of it, to let people know. Edit - I see the replacement toner on Amazon for less.than $150. That's much more reasonable. GORDON fucked around with this message at 03:58 on Sep 9, 2018 |

GORDON posted:Yeah they'll nail me on my first return, ever. Yeah, Amazon third party is okay. Full retail OEM is not. Strangely Costco had the chart of which toner went with which printer, listing the HP laser, but Costco doesn’t sell that toner at all in the store where I bought it. Lots and lots of HP inkjet refills though.

Ultimate Mango posted:Yeah, Amazon third party is okay. Full retail OEM is not. Cuz people are much happier to buy the $80 printer and throw down $70 every time they print 5 pages. Went laser a while back and it's an awakening akin to your first purchase of Costco plastic wrap. I will be buried with the spare toner I purchased with the printer.

What’s the consensus on the Costco Auto Program? Is it going to save me some real money, or am I better off with the traditional “threaten to walk at any moment” negotiating tactic? I’ve never bought a new (or used) car from a dealer before, so I don’t know what to expect.

Its probably worth it to try both methods though. The car buying thread on the forums is pretty helpful too. When I bought my new mazda 3 a few years back, the best deal ended up being from when I just walked into a dealership and the chinese salesperson was just like "Hey since you're also chinese I'll just give you the best deal right away".

DeadFatDuckFat posted:From what people have said in the thread, it can vary from good to not so great. Basically, you pop in what car you want and they'll send you a dealer to go to. The one I dealt with offered a flat $800 discount on advertised pricing, but couldn't really offer to do more after that. For myself and my wife, it was worth being able to go in, be told a price, and not have to spend all day to get them to budge on $200. We were in the market for one specific model so we were done with all the research and test drive poo poo. The finance guy was the worst part (it always is), but our salesman pulled some fresh mats for us from somewhere -- even if it was a total lie it was good to give us a final positive before we drove off.

My wife is on call today, so naturally I took the kid to Church. Big mistake, we didn’t have a list and were just killing time so it ended up being a pretty expensive trip.
