This prompted me to watch that video of a woman eating a whole Costco sheet cake. Thanks for the reminder. I also love that jackass coming in here to call those of us who eat at the Costco foodcourt "poor." That's awfully rich.

Tried the mocha smoothie along with my communion on Sunday and hoo lawd it is DELICIOUS. Other fun finds: $20 (actually $40!) off a TravelPro MaxLite rolling suitcase. A Vornado spaceheater with safety features that works really well for my computer dungeon. Reviews were a little mixed on how reliable it is, but Costco so who cares?

Tim Whatley posted:Here's a new one. I rent a really great end unit three floor condo and have for 2.5 years. My landlord hit me with the news yesterday that I have to leave at the end of May or he's offering to sell it to me and it's a pretty solid price. I don't wanna move yet so.... anybody have any experience with a Costco mortgage? In the home buying thread some of the posters were saying that they shopped around pretty extensively and the Costco recommended lender ended up coming in vastly cheaper. This (a mortgage) is something you should learn to comparison shop, and then you should comparison shop it, because while Costco might be able to get you the best deal, your local credit union might be able to offer you an absolutely insane rate and closing costs. Plus you can negotiate between lenders for rates / fees. Basically go to the BFC subforum and there's a whole thread. Cheers! PBUC

Like if I break it down by category probably $4,000 on gas, $5,000 on travel, $7,000 on restaurants, $10,000 at the 'Co. The card has really, really good cash back rewards.

The mocha is so good that I buy it when we arrive at Costco and drink it while we make the rounds. It's made with Kirkland beans, cold-brewed - nice coffee, nice flavor, great chocolate.

lol I was doing some shopping for furniture and came across this dank, dank, dank ad copy from Costco.comThe Wise Ad Copy People of Costco posted:It’s been said that the world’s most successful people all have one thing in common: They read. Bill Gates reads around 50 books a year; Mark Cuban reads for at least three hours a day; Warren Buffett spends 80 percent of his day reading. As an expert in your field, you know the only way to maintain your competitive advantage is to be continuously learning. In your free time, you don’t just read books about your field — you read about leadership and growth. The books you surround yourself with are a reflection of your education and position. Keeping those books within arm’s reach is important, and for that, you need a great bookcase. Luckily, Costco makes it easy to find the right bookcase; simply consider your needs and then narrow your search by brand, color, and more. Enjoy wholesale prices on all of Costco’s office furniture, including bookcases. Shop in stores or online at Costco.com today for smart savings you’re going to love!

Rutibex posted:if you are buying a half million dollar diamond, doesn't getting the 20% off costco discount version kind of defeat the purpose? you are supposed to be showing off your wealth, spending less just makes you look like a chump There is a particular slice of rich people who have 1) a ton of loving money but 2) LOOOVE to get a good deal. This is basically right in the middle of Costco's wheelhouse. They sell you a 5* vacation at 4* prices, they sell you a premium car at 10% below MSRP, they sell you prime but price it like choice, they sell you Blue Label at $180 a bottle. Kirkland Napa County should be like a $25 bottle, but it's $13.99 etc. etc. etc. PBUC

therobit posted:Costco is a great 2 hour activity with the kids. I have 2 kids and all 3 of us eat for $4.50, and then I strap the 3 year old into a cart and have my 8 year old grab stuff that isn't heavy off the shelves. They like eating samples, but I never let them stop and wait for one if it isn't already on the tray because I'm not an rear end in a top hat that likes to clog up the aisles for 5 minutes every 15 feet. I try to take them every Sunday since it is my church. PBUC Sup fellow Costco parent? I have a 22 month old who yells "HOT DOG HOT DOG HOT DOG" every time she sees the Costco sign out of her car seat. We go Friday nights, which are pretty dead, but it's great daddy daughter bonding time. I'm expecting my "Parent of the Year" award any day now.

Taking two things back to the 'Co this morning. A food sealer that we never used because I became a vegetarian right after we bought it (stupid, but it's unopened) and a pair of the Gerry cargo shorts that did NOT hold up NEARLY as well as the Izods or the Greg Norman Ultimate Travel Short. The GNUTS are loving amazing though. Any "MUST ACQUIRE" items out recently? We got the pop up hammock it's nice but it's a little buggy in our back yard. It'll get used over time.

Pennywise the Frown posted:I only smoked once I quit drinking a month ago. It caused anxiety. I'm going to try it again. Someone mentioned the George Carlin method of "one and done." I tried that with a vap cap before but it wasn't really enough to get me high so I smoked a little more and just got anxious and not very high at all. I want to try it with a bowl so I get more right away. He was actually asking about a relatively common and underdiagnosed marijuana-associated nausea condition called cyclic vomiting syndrome. Heavy marijuana users develop this terrible nausea, and it's often helped by a hot shower. It doesn't seem like that's your problem. Marijuana is NOT a great antiemetic as it contains both THC and CBD, although it's a pretty decent appetite stimulant. CBD alone is thought to have antiemetic properties.
