My location still has almond poppy seed is our muffins so got to be location dependent.

I would look around before blindly committing to this. I have gotten tires at CostCo in the past but I won’t do it again. The tire department at my store is always utterly slammed so those rotation & balances would take forever. Discount Tire was the same price and far more convenient for me.

I got a set of tires at Costco once, and over the next 3 months I needed to replace 3 of the valve stems. And Costco charged me. Boo. I will go to a tire place next time.

I needed to use up the last of the big jar of minced garlic so tonight I made ratatouille on roasted potatoes. For two people I ended up using two thirds of a cup of garlic. It was glorious

The bulgogi packs in the meat section are fine, especially if you are doing a grill or camp out and have a nice cast iron skillet to get piping hot. My wife is Korean, so she thinks they are a solid deal. I don’t think she adds any extra sauce to them.

I haven’t been to the Co in a while, but a hot dog would be fine today.

My wife’s car needs new tires and we are going to think about giving the Co a shot at replacing them.

I would not. It's the one Costco experience I've seen that is consistency bad. My roommate had a new tire from Costco blow out on the freeway and when she went back with the receipt they still denied it was their fault.

Got all four tires replaced at Costco on my wife's car in May or June. Not only were the prices extremely reasonable, they had quoted me 90 minutes, were done in 45, and it's been smooth sailing ever since. Would tire again.

It's very warehouse specific.

The shop here in North Durham is never not busy or behind. They're even often slow/busy even when swapping a battery or filling a propane tank.

Yes, I know I'm old, get off my fucking lawn so I can yell at these clouds.


I saw a much tamer version of this the last time I went in for some random bullshit and a large pizza. I did my usual thing of put the order in then wander around the store to find the two or three things we needed at home randomly impulse buy interesting looking food and when I got back to the foot court some dude was just loving raging at the poor lady trying to pass out hotdogs. I never figured out what he was pissed about, but pretty quickly three burly as gently caress dudes came out of nowhere and basically chest-bumped this guy off to a corner where managers descended on him.

No idea if they were real security or just the three biggest box stackers they had in the back.

I just used those same glasses the other day to have some rye and picklebacks with a friend on the patio. 12/10 would do again.

poo poo, I almost forgot the other (possibly more important) part. The pickle juice was from Grillo's Pickles, sourced from church, currently the best pickle I can find anywhere in the area in years. I'm on my third tub in maybe as many months and that's only because there's some degree of self-control and subconscious rationing going on.

Imagination will often carry us to worlds that never were. But without it we go nowhere.

A few weeks ago in Costco someone's pet dog took a massive dump right in the middle of the back meat aisle. I assume service dogs are better trained and it was just someone's emotional support whatever. Pissed me off (but is also hilarious in retrospect, couldn't wait to tell my niece and nephew about it, they were giggling forever).

Currently I'm enjoying the hell out of the 5lb tubs of Adams crunchy peanut butter. I was curious so I tracked myself over the past 6 months and I'm currently killing one in just under a month average. God I love the stuff.

It's perfectly crushable and pretty much whips the rear end of anything at that price.

Here in Chicago, the Revolution 18 packs are about the same price, and about equally as tasty for the styles that come in that format.

If you want nice beer, splash out for it, I guess. It's a daily driver.

Definitely the salted peanut butter, and 98% of it is eaten by me. So good. I put it on bananas and shredded wheat mostly.

Do you just dip (and double dip) the bananas straight into the jar? This is a judgment-free zone, you can be honest

I use a spoon to put a bit of peanut butter on a banana between each bite. Also I eat pb and j out of the jars with a spoon sometimes, ignoring the bread carrier completely. Peanut butter is the best.

Somewhere out there a person who is allergic to peanut dust in the air is fuming, trying to track you down. He goes by Mr Brittle.

No, that's gross. Also a pro tip, do not use the cheap Cuisinart immersion blender Costco sells to mix your Costco peanut butter tubs. It pulverizes the nuts too much and the motor starts to smell funny after just a couple jars.

my guess is it's less peanut dust and more that every surface of their kitchen is covered in excess peanut/banana slime

You absolutely can call in those orders, and the Costco food court employees very much prefer that you do so rather than showing up unannounced and ordering 18 pizzas.
