In most states you don't have to be a member to use the pharmacy at Costco. Just tell the door people you are going to the pharmacy. I think it's worth it just to get access to super cheap generic OTC stuff. 365 day supply of my allergy med for less than a 30 day at normal store. That and batteries. So many batteries.

Bought some cookies called Madeleines and I was hoping they were good, and I was surprised to find out they are teacakes! I love teacakes! Very happy

Best thing at Costco are the super ultra thick Champion brand socks that you can't find anywhere. Wearing boots is a lot easier when you have literal duvets on each foot

If anyone has any salmon patty recipes or something, feel free to list em up. I've never had these things and plan on cooking one or two tonight.

Salmon patties...i just fry in a pan and use them like I would hamburger patties. I fry them for about 6-8 mins per side, and then put them on a bun with mayo and lettuce and I am good to go, but ymmv.

My favorite thing about Costco is walking into the refrigerated section where the milk is. It's entering another dimension.

And they can stack more in each container and then pass the savings on to YOUUUUU! My favorite thing is frozen chicken bakes. They are like big hot pockets that are delicious and I want them every day.

In the fall-winter they do the giant rear end Chicken Pot Pies that are the best motherfuckin' Pot Pies you can get without making them yourself. Also fall-winter, pumpkin sage ravioli. I got a cake for a babby shower for $18 that was filled with two pounds of white chocolate mousse and fed like 40 people and they all liked it. Chocolate covered almonds. I can't buy them anymore because I have zero self control and will eat the whole goddamn jar in like five days. If you watch the coupons you can get some pretty good windshield wipers ultra cheap. (edit) The Kirkland organic olive oil is legit amazing. It consistently rates as one of the best olive oils in the world and is actually 100% olive oil (which is shockingly rare even amongst not super cheap brands). 13Pandora13 has a new favorite as of 01:08 on Apr 30, 2015 |

They have these almonds with a puffy wasabi coasting that makes me flip the gently caress out. I would eat them all day, if I could.

The best coconut water for half the price of everyone else's shittier coconut water. Five dollar chicken. Also every time I'm in Costco I have to eye-gently caress the giant cryos of USDA PRIME beef. Lookin' for an excuse. Edit: The one dollar churros.

You can buy a HUGE wedge of Jarlsberg Norwegian cheese for like 1/5 the price you'd pay if you actually got it in Norway.

Their Parmigiano-Reggiano (the kind that is labeled as such and comes in a wedge, as opposed to the just-OK shredded Parmesan in jars) is great though, solid B+ quality, good to have around and, again, cheap as hell.

There is a brand at the one I go to called Yancy's Fancy, the smoked gouda is loving amazing. Did anyone used to buy the pot stickers that came in an ice-cube like tray? Those were loving good and super easy to cook... You just popped them out of the tray into a pan, cooked them for a few minutes with the lid off then turned the heat down and put a lid over the top. So lazy. They stopped selling them, unfortunately. e: my 2nd post about that cheese in this thread, outed myself as a cheese shill Haerc has a new favorite as of 06:40 on Apr 30, 2015 |

Kirkland Parmigiano Reggiano is a steal at $15-$21/lb (as opposed to the $24+ a pound it may run at your local megamart) but that's still a cheese that costs as much as prime rib or lobster. moller has a new favorite as of 08:33 on Apr 30, 2015 |

I remember back in the 90's when Costco's computer section featured a loooong table piled high with boxes upon boxes of computer software. A good half of that were all computer games, and I would hang out there and look at the back of every box while the parents went off to get boring stuff like toilet paper and food. Every once in a very long while, my parents would deign to purchase for me a game of my choice. I picked up the box for SimCity 2000 Special Edition, nestled among the various other titles competing for my childhood attention. The countless hours of fun and imagination brought to me by the contents of that box are my favorite thing about Costco

Make this a bunch of times!
