Walked in on a Tuesday, ordered a combo pizza for forty five minutes from then, picked up a steaming fresh pie for $9.99 on my way out with the rest of my shopping

FCKGW posted:Costcos margins are actually some of the lowest in retail because they make all their money on memberships. Unless its changed, they have a fixed margin cap. I think like 8 percent for regular items and 15 percent for Kirkland signature items. Whole foods works around the 35% mark. http://www.investopedia.com/articles/investing/070715/costcos-business-model-smarter-you-think.asp

I'm eyeing the Fila Trail Shoes in Junes coupon book https://www.costco.com/Fila-Men%27s-Trail-Shoe.product.100360953.html Anybody got them before?

Chinatown posted:WHAT ![]() They do better in the oven but perfectly acceptable in the microwave, though the "seam" does tend to steam open that way. Solid addition to an office lunch although they do stink up the place with the smell of spicy beef.

Your guys Costco had both yellow and deli mustard right?

Went to Costco yesterday but forgot my card. No problem because the friendly customer service people printed me up a temporary pass.

IIRC, Costco employees get a shot at returned products at a steep discount, so your returned bars are probably going to a loving Costco home.

Meydey posted:Bought glasses last week at Costco. Frame, Progressive Bi-focal (I'm an old), anti-glare coating, and the costco warranty - $169.99 I got Lasik a couple years ago, so I haven't had need of it lately: Costco sells a an eyeglass cleaner kit thats two decent sized squirt bottles of cleaner plus a small travel sized one plus some cloths. The kicker is, they have tanks of the fluid at the optical center and you can top it off whenever you want.

Been working late the last couple of weeks and not been able to pick up my sundries from Costco. Roommate decided to be helpful and bought 1-ply toilet paper.

Fashionably Great posted:My boyfriend uses my membership all the time with his own debit card. I'm usually standing next to him at the checkout, but I've never had a problem with guesting people in and letting them use my membership with their debit/visa. Honestly, I'm not even sure if they look at the name/picture most of the time. My costco is super chill in general. Always assumed they matched the names from the membership to the debit card. Whenever I've helped a friend out, I just tell them to pay in cash.

DarkHorse posted:One of the cooler ideas I heard for halloween was glow bracelets, you can get a pack of 100 for $10 (Though I'm not sure if that was at Costco or just online) I'm looking at alibaba and they have a ton of slap bracelet options for cheap if you can take the lead time. Probably make parents of a certain age go wild too.

Looks like officially they're still requiring masks for all cuatomers. My local in Virginia has everyone in masks. https://www.costco.com/coronavirus.html Re: peanut butter, I recently got the Kirkland mixed nut butter (almond, cashew, something else) with seeds. It's very good. Not sure if it's actually healthier but it's an interesting alternative.

Did a huge Costco run today in preparations for an assumed covid rebound. 100% masks and no sample carts.

Coredump posted:What sort of things did you get? I should probably do the same and I’m cribbing ideas. I went heavy on proteins since that was in shortage last time round. Ground beef, ground turkey, bag of frozen chicken thighs, pack of steaks, frozen salmon. Also broccoli, cheeses, pack of tortillas, and for some reason three kinds of fizzy waters. For the most part I look for flexibility in making meals.

Call me bougie, but I loved Starbucks via coffee. Tasted way better than office coffee and all you need is hot water to make it happen. Kinda high caffeine so I only did half a pack every morning. Haven't seen it at church since the pandemic ![]()

I'm kind of a coffee philistine, but there is a Charlottesville, VA roaster named Greenberry that has at least state wide Costco distribution that was really good. I see also a lot of VA beers and wines. Do you not have regional products like that in yours?

Tomorrow is the first day of the coupon book. Is it going to be a mob of people, or just an average costco wednesday?

bird with big dick posted:I got a real good empty box from Costco the other day. Usually just get the 3 sides boxes or the huge & shallow ones. This one is double walled and has handles, not too big, not too small (it's the norwegian sliced salmon box). Here's a potential game changer. Most costco boxes fit in the large blue Ikea bags, giving you convenient carrying handles and straps
