Chinatown posted:Its Arizona. Its a loving awful place, trust me, their refuse flows across the border into San Diego every summer. lol yeah they do. Which is stupid, because they leave their 100+ degree dry desert to come to our 85+ degree heat with like 90-95% humidity summer heat. For ever sweaty rear end all summer. Nothing like a Cotsco mocha coffee freeze to beat the heat! PBUC!

Zombie Dachshund posted:Costco had Serrano hams for $99 (with rack and knife!) I assume that at that price, it’s going to be pretty low-quality ham, but I’m still tempted. I was eyeballing them last year, I didn't see them last week, but I'm going back and getting one this year for sure. My buddy's father-in-law is Galician, he bought one last year and approves.

One of the biggest reasons I don't have a bidet is because cleaning it seems like it would be difficult. Would you have to remove the whole thing to get in there? I don't want poop dust all over it.

Anyone buy the Chicago Metallic stainless measuring cups by chance? We bought some to replace our lovely plastic ones and half of them have rust on the handles after the first wash in the dishwasher. At first I thought it was a sauce or something that had dried but I had to use steel wool to remove it. It's definitely rust. They're not on Costco's site anymore beyond showing up in search engine results.

No rust or very little rust

The Slack Lagoon posted:I have them and run them through the dishwasher all the time. I think I bought them least year. No rust or very little rust Thank you. We'll repack these and swap them out then. I don't understand how they'd have been wet long and exposed to air long enough to rust already but it must've just been a jacked up treatment. The cups themselves are fine but the handles each have a dime-sized spot of rust on them.

Last day in Taipei before heading over to Japan. We’ll see what the church here has worth picking up.

Got myself some winterwear, a box of the stroopwafels, and a bag of cheddar and caramel popcorn mix, among other things. The popcorn mix is very good but makes you feel extremely even in small amounts. The stroopwafels are just okay, guess I was expecting more of a crisp wafer or something.

Moving in a few days, gonna go measure the new seat tomorrow. Bio Bidet or the Brondell? Almost the same price.

Managed to walk out with 2 extra sets of contacts (aside from what yearly vision covers) at nearly 50% of the cost in the states for the same brand/product. Local samples weren’t half bad either. Received communion and headed out. PBUC indeed.

The closest to sfo is really weird to get to and the parking lot is a mess. The business center is just what it says. The one a little further it is probably the least crazy, as long as it isn't a weekend. If you just want beer any will do. Most have a nice Stone pack or 21st amendment pack right now.

Has anyone scoped the electric blanket situation? I'm looking for both throw sized blankets and heating pads/comforters for queen beds. My apartment is made of crumbling brick and cold war era sawdust.

I bought the throw sized ones they had a few years ago (Sunbeam) and they are cat approved.

Not to speak ill of Costco, but heated mattress pads are 100x better. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B003ZSHDEK/ I've ordered 4 of this specific model dating back to 2013 and all 4 are still in use.

My apartment is made of crumbling brick and cold war era sawdust. Ive had bad luck with the single one I purchased there. Everything was OK until I tried to wash it, which I did following the directions. It never heated again and is now a lumpy backup blanket forsaken to a cedar chest in the corner.

My apartment is made of crumbling brick and cold war era sawdust. I bought the king sized heated blanket from Costco. I keep my house at 62'f at night, and this thing set to heat level 5 out of 20 keeps me warm. Auto-off after 10 hours, made of a nice material, no obvious thick wires in it really. I like it! I haven't tried to wash it yet though. Maybe I'll try that before it passes the costco return time limit.

Just got back from the 'co. Picked up some energy drinks, protein drinks, frozen yakisoba noodle bowls, and finally some Babybel cheese. I looked for the Babybel the last 2 times I went there and they weren't by the cheese where they always were. Well a town crier was giving samples of Babybel cheese and my heart skipped a beat. They were in the refrigerated section near the beer. Praise be. Also: ![]()
