Never been to my Co on a Saturday, had to go in to exchange my battery....literally every space was full.

But they had cookies!

The trick is to go to one that has -20° weather. Nearly got frost bite jumping my car.

That cookie might be good, but there is no way I would eat that without milk to drink with it. Which I don't think the food court will ever sell.

Safeway/Alberstons, which will soon be Kroger if the purchase goes through. I'd still rather shop Kroger instead of Walmart. Walmart is an actively evil company that delights in the suffering of their employees, while Kroger, et al. are more indifferent to it. Still lovely companies, but better than the alternative.

And yes, I have the luxury of having a couple dozen grocery stores within 30 minutes (and two Costcos), while the nearest Walmart is about 40 minutes away. It's a lot easier for me to never give them money vs someone living in a food desert.

lol safeway/albertsons is hell to employees in non-unionized stores, same with kroger. avoiding walmart to go to safeway/albertsons/kroger/etc is like a litmus test of "lol libs" stereotype.

Just go into the warehouse, buy a bulk container of milk and share it with everyone else in the food court. Next time, someone else is obligated to cover you.

I know the guy who created the formula for the spiced rum, he said they were told to match the Sailor Jerry flavor fwiw. I think they also do the gin. It's a flavor house that does a lot of work with the alcohol industry.

I mean, this doesn't surprise me that they have it, since it's the "HQ" store. I haven't been to my regular churches since before Christmas (Sodo, Shoreline) so I'm not sure if it's at others around here yet.

I should get a gallon of milk, then get the cookie, then sit in a corner of the food court methodically eating the cookie and taking pulls off the gallon of milk straight from the bottle, all while maintaining unbroken eye contact with the staff.

Got the vanilla birthday cake with the cheesecake mousse filling for the kiddos first birthday party and it was a huge hit with everyone. 16.99 and it was probably a bit higher quality than what the supermarket had for $40. PBUC

I honestly have never tried it, since spiced rum in general tastes too much like college to me. He also did the Rumchata formula.

My location sells them by single gallon but now that you mention the two gallon I remember the plastic thing they used to have to keep the gallons together.

I also went to Costco this Saturday and what a rookie move. I said to myself, "I'll go one hour before closing, there will be less people there." Yeah me and everyone else in the county had the same idea it was a mad house. Then in an even more rookie move, I ordered from the food court. Those are hardest working people I see at Costco but the way they handle a rush at my location is so inefficient but them poor people were slammed.

Did this with my wife and kid (1 cookie + strawberry sundae for all 3 of us) the other day. Really good. The cookie is great to split - since it’s so huge, the inner part is super soft and gooey but the edges are crisp. It meant that everyone got their preference of cookie doneness. Way too much for 1 person though.

I tried the food court poutine when I visited Vancouver BC. It was good but there’s no way I could finish it, it’s like 1,500 calories. That’s definitely something you share.
