The worst part of doing business is the paperwork and it feels great to go paperless.

lol yeah they do. Which is stupid, because they leave their 100+ degree dry desert to come to our 85+ degree heat with like 90-95% humidity summer heat. For ever sweaty rear end all summer.

Costco had Serrano hams for $99 (with rack and knife!) I assume that at that price, it’s going to be pretty low-quality ham, but I’m still tempted.

It’s a plus that you can just leave it out at room temperature for weeks and it’ll be okay. I told my wife I’d set it up next to the bed and cut off a slice whenever I wanted a snack, Homer Simpson-style; she was not amused

I was eyeballing them last year, I didn't see them last week, but I'm going back and getting one this year for sure. My buddy's father-in-law is Galician, he bought one last year and approves.

We just had our friend bring us back two bags from SE Asia. No need to control our intake when knowing there is more at church.

Also the tamales are decent with 0 effort.

One of the biggest reasons I don't have a bidet is because cleaning it seems like it would be difficult. Would you have to remove the whole thing to get in there? I don't want poop dust all over it.

Anyone buy the Chicago Metallic stainless measuring cups by chance? We bought some to replace our lovely plastic ones and half of them have rust on the handles after the first wash in the dishwasher. At first I thought it was a sauce or something that had dried but I had to use steel wool to remove it. It's definitely rust. They're not on Costco's site anymore beyond showing up in search engine results.

I have them and run them through the dishwasher all the time. I think I bought them least year. No rust or very little rust

the cleaning parts clean themselves when they retract. the rest of it is just your standard wipe down that you'd do with a normal toilet seat

Thank you. We'll repack these and swap them out then. I don't understand how they'd have been wet long and exposed to air long enough to rust already but it must've just been a jacked up treatment. The cups themselves are fine but the handles each have a dime-sized spot of rust on them.

I never get the last word, and it makes me very sad.
Got myself some winterwear, a box of the stroopwafels, and a bag of cheddar and caramel popcorn mix, among other things. The popcorn mix is very good but makes you feel extremely :btroll: even in small amounts. The stroopwafels are just okay, guess I was expecting more of a crisp wafer or something.

Managed to walk out with 2 extra sets of contacts (aside from what yearly vision covers) at nearly 50% of the cost in the states for the same brand/product. Local samples weren’t half bad either.

Lol, which one of three? The closest to sfo is really weird to get to and the parking lot is a mess. The business center is just what it says. The one a little further it is probably the least crazy, as long as it isn't a weekend. If you just want beer any will do. Most have a nice Stone pack or 21st amendment pack right now.

Probably the close one there with the gas station. I'm staying in Burlingame so can go later if it is less busy. Going at the end of the month/first week of December

Yeah, that works. I forgot to add that yes, visa is the card they take. I find around 4 on weekdays to be pretty chill if you can swing it.

Ive had bad luck with the single one I purchased there. Everything was OK until I tried to wash it, which I did following the directions. It never heated again and is now a lumpy backup blanket forsaken to a cedar chest in the corner.

I bought the king sized heated blanket from Costco. I keep my house at 62'f at night, and this thing set to heat level 5 out of 20 keeps me warm. Auto-off after 10 hours, made of a nice material, no obvious thick wires in it really.

I like it!

I haven't tried to wash it yet though. Maybe I'll try that before it passes the costco return time limit.

Just got back from the 'co. Picked up some energy drinks, protein drinks, frozen yakisoba noodle bowls, and finally some Babybel cheese. I looked for the Babybel the last 2 times I went there and they weren't by the cheese where they always were. Well a town crier was giving samples of Babybel cheese and my heart skipped a beat. They were in the refrigerated section near the beer. Praise be.
