when i go to costco i like to guess what my bill is going to be right before i check out. i don't do any mental math along the way and i impulse buy a lot of poo poo, then i stare at my haul and attempt to estimate the cost. i got my girlfriend to start guessing too, she beats me sometimes. today i was within $5.

I'm right there with you. My typical guess is usually around $600 and the total usually ends up being $800. :stare:

Every time I got to Costco an employee tries to upgrade my membership while I wait in line, citing how much stuff I have in my cart.

Yup, yup, I know guys.

HELLO I WOULD LIKE TO TALK TO YOU ABOUT MY VERY STRONG OPINIONS

I'm about 1000 posts behind, so apologies if this has been covered. Has anyone used Costco pet insurance? We've never had pet insurance, but my wife is getting a service dog soon and we're looking in to options for coverage, since doggo is super important. It seems pretty good compared to others.

Sometimes they’ll have someone wandering around ahead of the registers and they always beeline it towards me. It doesn’t bug me aside from calling to mind the dumb amount of groceries I have to buy to feed this family.

Also jfc do never buy the everything parm crisps, I could fill up a second cart with those bad boys.

There are parm whisps too! And they've got ones for other cheeses... the only way I can convince myself to abstain is reminding myself that they give me intense heartburn, otherwise I'd be helpless

50/50, because on one hand it's apparently a battery pretty much only used by the Prius, on the other hand there are a fuckload of Priuses out there so maybe Costco carries it.

You can get to the battery site still at https://costco.interstatebatteries.com/ but don't bother because it's stupid. It says they don't carry the battery that I bought from Costco for my truck. The same battery they literally have at the bottom of the page talking about AGM. You'd be better off calling the tire center or just going in and looking.

it was "only" $300 for us yesterday but there's just 2 of us and we have no kids. meat and alcohol really crank the price up. Sometimes I'll grab a few bottles of liquor and my guess will become off by like 30%

so, no, not really. :haw:

you can buy the og 1/4 lb polish dogs at Costco Business Centers.

Genuinely superior to any comparable hot dog you can buy anywhere else for about the same price as buying a pack of ballpark franks.

Went to Costco to get gas, pulled up to a pump with zero wait. Is this blessed? I think so.

I’m also pretty sure it’s never happening again but it happened once!!

Nah. Sausages are eaten with bread, or if you're feeling fancy curry and rice.

It's not really great on its own as a salsa. It shines as a topping or mix-in.

The bougie Costco had the Pendleton outdoor blankets that lady bagmo has heard lots of good things about. They also had like 10 other things the Costco closer to me doesn't usually have and now I'm tempted to make the hike out there once a month
