Walmart increased the cost of my sadbrain meds and I am sick of having to discuss the finer points of rx discount cards with a dead-eyed Walmart tech for 20 minutes before they get smug and roll their eyes and say "let me ask mah supervisor," only to find out I was actually in the right because they couldn't enter in a string of characters. Costco apparently has their own in house rx discount program for free with membership, and sells that poo poo for such a low price that it pretty much pays for my membership with one refill, plus I never enter a Walmart that is bad even by Walmart standards. All this plus pizza and soda and gas at excellent prices. I bought a Groupon and will be getting $20 in church bux and a free pizza and a free box of paper towels. Praise be.

Went to the Costco to redeem my groupon and was bamboozled into upgrading to the executive membership. Still seems like an incredible value because they double the cash card to $40. Bought epsom salt, antipasto, gel pens in bulk. Also bought some new towels and a giant pillow and will transfer my rx next time so I never see the inside of our hellscape Walmart again. Finished up with a gut bomb pizza slice straight out of the oven and an infinitely refillable soda.

To clarify I did not push the limits of the refill policy; I did not even refill my soda a single time given the total meal was around 900 calories. However, I am very glad the option is there and it is a sort of security blanket, warm and inviting.

We decided on a last minute trip to Canada and passed not one but two Costcos after the border crossing. Costco extends across all nations, all cultures & creeds. We are all equal in the eyes of value.

Switching from Progressive to Costco for my auto and renter’s insurance saved me over $300 for the same exact coverage, and I’ve been eating on delicious Costco instant pot pot roast all weekend. PBUC.

The Costco dog and soda (WITH REFILL) is about to become the new “they can’t be that poor, they got a TV, cell phone and air conditioning!”

The Midniter posted:Unbeknownst to me, my membership expired 11/30 and I stopped to get some gas on my way home from work on 12/1. Wouldn't you know it, they actually allow you to get gas one time after your membership expires so you don't feel like an idiot and have to waste time going in to renew your membership before you fill your tank. Stopped in yesterday to do some shopping and renewed my membership to the faith. PBUC. It’s little things like this which show someone is actually thinking out the customer shopping experience at Costco. Like I can just imagine some angry, underpaid drone at Sam’s Club being like “AHM SARRY SIR, BUT YOU GOTTA GO IN AND RENEW FIRST, NOTHIN I CAN DO!”, while the friendly gas attendant at Costco who makes ~40k/yr and has benefits is like “oh gee, go ahead, happens to a lot of people.”

Costco sells these amazing frozen pucks of French Onion soup that melt in your microwave and have cheese and croutons and are just about as good as you could hope for FO to be outside of a fancy restaurant. Add a touch of salt and pepper, Combine with a bit of bread from a BAGUETTE TWO PACK, and PBUC.

Rap Music is literally the Antichrist to us believers. He has finally revealed himself in a time such as this; as the purest love ITT has reached a level that is particularly distasteful to him, for he knows his time is short.

Original_Z posted:Japanese Costco’s cheeseburger is now a double cheeseburger! I don’t know if it’s a worldwide change or not but it was definitely a single the first time I had it a few months ago. I lived in Japan for a few months and it’s amazing how they even do crappy American fast food better than us. The double cheeseburger is the default at McDonalds. There is no single cheeseburger. Also the soda is never flat and the fries are always salted.

I’m a masochist so I read scary stories before going to bed. I came across this and thought this thread might get a kick out of it. https://www.reddit.com/r/nosleep/comments/9n9r0g/theres_a_secret_basement_underneath_my_local/ You’d have to weigh the life of your loved one vs. your love of communion.

FCKGW posted:/r/nosleep is a creepypasta subreddit. Everything is true there even if it's not. Suspension of disbelief is fine but I’m supposed to believe the protagonist passed up a slice and a refillable soda? Impossible!
