We get those huge bags of fresh greens from Costco... since the woman is vegetarian, we go through a lot of veggies!

I also bought a Costco vacation once, an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica. Saved over a $1000 off the price on the hotel's website.

I really like this for some reason. I guess usually when I hear "capitalism" it's in a very negative context of people getting screwed.

But yes. They do it right. Who else could create Kirkland Brand Capitalism™ like Costco?

I have a bad thing about Costco! My cousin's baby had a diaper rash of such tenacity it became common family gossip. And when they finally identified the culprit? Kirkland Signature Baby Wipes.

I don't want to bring the thread down but I also don't want to be responsible for chapped asses.

If we're out of any of these things it's time to go to Costco!

Kirkland Organic olive oil (legit af)
Tillamook extra-sharp cheddar
TP
Paper towels
Dried cranberries/walnuts/almonds (interchangeable, oatmeal accoutrements)
Kirkland dye-free laundry detergent
Kirkland hippie environmentally friendly dish soap
Normandy vegetable mix (seriously the best one)
Frozen salmon fillets
Better than Bouillon organic chicken stock base (this is everywhere but Costco has it for SO cheap)

I always grab a flat of Red Bull for my boss, who is too cheap to buy a membership but happily piggybacks on mine -- why do I work for this shortsighted individual again?

Recent scores include the two-pack of buckets o'fresh cheese tortellini, a great many really nice sirloin steaks for a drat song, and the Kirkland frozen pepperoni pizzas -- four for roughly the same price as one Tombstone is at the regular supermarket (this is so my partner doesn't starve to death when I'm not around to shove broiled salmon and Normandy mix at him.)

We have successfully resisted the economy-sized Nutella for five consecutive visits, a record.

Wipe the baby with the bun from $1.50 hot dog and drink!

Or stop feeding them to your baby either or.

Look I can't account for your luck and/or your baby's titanium rear end, just sayin' Costco isn't all muffins and hotdogs, and sometimes things are super cheap affordable for a reason.

go there anyways and just make sure you load your vehicle to the limit with bulk goods every time to ensure it's worthwhile (though going to Costco and eating some samples and maybe getting a hotdog with drink for $1.50 should be reward enough in of itself)

They have more product recalls for health issues and you can't really tell the difference in blind taste tests for similar products. Sometimes high quality stuff is also coincidentally organic but the stuff you have to legally do to get the label itself have very little to do with that. Often in fact, the stuff they use for pest control etc is actively less safe than their non-organic counterparts and that's why you see such a spike in recalls.

Being against modern agriculture technology is like being anti vaxx, sure there are issues with the industry itself so if you wanna stroll on down to your local farmers market and buy stuff there cause you hate monsanto then sure w/e, but organic or not has nothin to do with that.

Been using Kirkland Baby Wipes on my baby for 6 months. No rashes.

My nephews used them their whole diaper careers. No issues there.

I've used them on my hands after changing the baby, on my face after a meal on the go, and on my dick after banging my wife. Everything is clean and clear.

I'm nae the voice o' the darkened thistle, but th' darkened thistle cannae bear the sight o' our Bonnie Prince Bernie nae mair.
Yesterday was at the Costco in the 6 o clock hour and the lines were awful. In the one I chose, this lady was buying tons of stuff, and when she got up to the register, someone appeared wheeling up another corner store's worth of crap that was part of her purchase somehow. Everybody in line groaned and grumbled. So they opened another register right next door and moved us all over, just to be awesome. I paid for my two things while watching the lady from the original lane carefully counting out the hundreds of dollars in ones, fives, and tens that she was using for her monster purchase.
