I got waaaay too much of their fresh ground burger patties for tomorrow. I mean, most people eat at last 2/3rds of a pound of meat if they are under 13 and a full pound 13-50 years old, right? That’s after teriyaki chicken meatballs and a whole kielbasa each. gently caress, I’m not prepared. Or am I over-prepared and actually perfect?

Just had some Costco top sirloin of all things and it was really good. Miles better than I can find at a grocery store. Also the mac and cheese.

Just cancelled my membership renewals for next year. I got the most insanely terrible service from the optical department and then when I went to talk to someone at customer service also. I have no clue what the deal was but both of the people I talked to were extremely rude, interrupted me, and talked down to me like I was speaking another language or something. All I wanted was a copy of my contact lens prescription printed and I was treated like I was asking the staff to borrow a thousand dollars or something. When I asked to cancel my renewal the guy at the counter gave me knives from his eyes, said nothing, and said emotionlessly staring at me “have a nice day” in a very flat, cold way. I can’t really explain it in writing but I just felt like I was being an annoyance to these people. I was so shocked all I could do was laugh, look at my wife, and look back at them like “are you being serious right now?” The service at my Costco has been getting noticeably worse and I’m not going to shop there anymore. Sorry to anyone who loves Costco, I get it, but there’s no way I’m going to be treated the way I was and give them my money. Toxic Mental fucked around with this message at 17:01 on Feb 3, 2020 |

The optometrist is, but this was with the actual Costco optical staff with the counter and near the glasses wall and where you order contacts through Costco. It was a Costco staff with a Costco name badge so I only assume so.

I finally found the Bitchin’ Sauce when I was at a different Costco than usual. Just as good as everyone here made it out to be. It’s just kinda odd that a Costco less than 10 miles away from my usual place carries it. Also in good news, is that in the future, I will be less than 2 miles away from a Costco. The neighboring town had a press release that they are working to get a Costco into a vacant K-Mart building. It being in Naperville, IL, I wonder how busy it will be. Can’t be as bad as the Oak Brook location which is almost always super busy.

I dreamed I tasted bitching sauce. Seriously, it was in a dream. But my Costco carries cheap paneer and steam buns and other fun indian/East Asian stuff, so it's a trade-off.

My haul from a lunchtime run. 4505 chicharrones Whisps - parmesan Kirkland protein bars - choc chip & brownie Chipotle Bitchin Sauce - first time my store has had it. Chicharrones & Bitchin sauce is a good combo.

I love the Filipino chicharrones with the bits of jalapeno or other peppers I have tried. They make the plain old pork rinds hella boring.

That is probably going to be a zoo over in that lovely old strip mall, but will be nice to spread out the people going to 59. Apparently if they move forward with it, Ogden 6 (the old/cheap theater) is going to close.

A few weeks ago a bought this udon noodle teriyaki stir fry kit for like 5 bucks. I thought it was going to be one of those ready to eat meals where I just throw it in a skillet, but inside the package was 4 individually wrapped packets of udon, dry spice packets, and dehydrated veggies in a pouch. It was lacking in the meal department so I stir fried some chicken and fresh veggies I had laying around before adding the pouch. I have to say, it was really good. I look at it like a good meal starter kit that let me add a lot to dinner with minimal effort.

My store finally got Bitchin Sauce. But it only came in a multipack, and cilantro (to which I am extremely allergic) was mandatory in two of the three. So none for me.

Went today to pick up a 34 inch TV to install at a family members house. got some La Croix. Costco now has a Kirkland knockoff as well. Haven't tried it but I expect it to be good. It was only 10am but the smell of pizza was in the air.  Another time.

The Costco version of San Pellegrino is good. It is better than San Pellegrino, in my opinion. The Costco version of La Croix tastes pretty similar to La Croix, but I'm not really a fan of either.

The Bubly 3-pack with Cherry, Raspberry and Blackberry is absolutely amazing. Those three flavors are all great and mild and they don't come laced together with the stupid can 6-pack rings you've gotta deal with.

The Kirkland one is a better value and is fine, but the Bubly is way better taste wise so that's usually what I get.

So the loveSacs are at my local Costco. Wife and I have wanted one for the last 3 years and have the $ this year. Any trip reports from people in this thread? I’m thinking of long term use issues... Did it hold up? Did you regret it? Do you still use it? We want the largest one and to put it in the study
