I only had one taste from a friend but I thought it was okay. Full disclosure like four or five other people did as well and said it was foul :shrug:

Yeah I didn't want to buy a huge jar without knowing. I'll have to try it somewhere first.

Grapefruit honey tea??????

Is this good?

I like it, if you hate candied citrus peel you won't like this. I mixed it with some grapefruit spindrift and it was great. You can eat the peels when you drink all the liquid. It's a beverage and a snack.

You can freeze 505 if you don't think you can go through an entire jar quickly enough!

Church had a yakisoba store fry in the deli cooler.


With a good squeeze of Sriracha and a bit of chopping on the large chicken chunks it's quite tasty.

I'm getting a little nervous about the lack of pee pads the last few times I've gone. We've got two very elderly cats that don't aim quite as good as they used to, and we're down to 1/4 of a box of pads.

I typically eat a costco-sized bag of these every year by myself.

Haven't been able to find the Bare chicken nugget things lately, which is sad as I throw them on pasta once or twice a week to round out an easy meal.

I made the mistake of hitting the 'Co on a saturday last week and it was like a scene from a loving disaster movie. Goddamn Mad Max poo poo in the aisles and the meat selection looked like something from peak Cold War blockade Cuba.

I find between opening and 11am on weekdays are the best time, probably 6pm til 8 is pretty good too. You couldn’t make me go on a weekend here. The costcos are complete zoos from the parking through to the packed aisles.

I’m kind of debating keeping the membership because I really dislike going when it’s busy and that just keeps getting worse :sigh:

That night we performed the rite and opened the gate.
Halfway through, I went to fix us both a coke float.
By the time I got back, he'd gone insane.
Plus, he'd left the gate open and there was evil everywhere.


I used to only have one near me and it was chaos, now I have like 10 within 30 minutes drive so I can choose where to worship and they are usually not crazy.

The loving worst is the free tire air station. Don't get me wrong, I still use it because it's convenient and I'm a cheap skate, but goddamn I time that poo poo to show up at like 9am on a wednesday. No bullshit, the last time my tires needed air I drove 20 min out of my way to hit costco before a 10am doctor's appointment on a workday.

It's a combination of 1) old people who will loving CUT YOU for free air and 2) older people who seem to think it's valet parking and will idle their cars there while they wait for their wife to return a half eaten tin of biscuits or something.

Costco sells this emergency car supply kit that my brother bought me as a gift 10 or so years ago. It comes with an electric tire pump that plugs into your cigarette lighter. I've been filling my tires myself with that thing ever since then and I have no regrets.

That pump alone was worth the money. I still have that kit and I have no idea what's in it anymore other than a lovely thin blanket and some reflectors.

Save yourself 20 minutes of driving (and gas/wear/tear) and just pay $1 or whatever to the gas station air machine

One time I only needed like 5lbs in a single tire so I tried to use a bicycle pump. That was a loving mistake I tell you what

Second bonus is that I don't have to go out with my wife's car when she needs air. She's car dumb and I don't think I can handle teaching her how to do it herself. One day she calls me from her drive home and says, hey I have a light on my dash that looks like a butt do I need to worry??? I was able to just take care of it when she got home.

Meh, I top off my car tires with my bike pump. A bicycle tire has a way higher pressure so if anything it’s easier with the car.

Unless you mean one of the tiny handheld pumps… that would suck.

It's not just the dollar, the costco air machine is legit nicer. I can just punch in the PSI I want, grab the hose, and it auto-fills it to pressure in no time flat. Meanwhile the gas stations are all ancient compressors that take forever to get the tire up to pressure and I'm loving around with that dumb dipstick pressure gauge.

Like, I can do the gas station air if I have to, but for all that I'll gripe about people at costco being dicks the machine there is a LOT nicer.

I haven't been able to find a gas station that works anywhere in town for specific PSI. I even tried to go last week and it ate a dollar in quarters.

Then, I went to Costco hoping it wouldn't be busy and they would fill it up for me, only to discover that they have just installed self serve air pumps. No line, brand new pumps, perfect pressure in seconds. Also they gave me a free stem valve cover to replace one I lost. Then I went in and blew most of the day's calories on a chicken bake

That's understandable but for 20 minutes (each way?) out of way driving that still doesn't make any sense to me
