Oh right. Is the bakery flan only west Coast or has anybody seen it east coast?

tfw you're peeing next to someone in the lineup and they don't know
We recently moved near Seattle and there is a new-ish Costco right by us. Idk if this is a seattle thing or just a quirk of this particular costco but everyone ignores the sample carts 95% of the time, which is great. ban all samples, always. costco has a loving 100% satisfaction guarantee, if you really buy some random bad thing just return it. Don't engage in the faustian bargain which is samples.

BUT in some kind of monkeys paw situation, the one person actually getting a sample randomly will almost inevitably have their cart parked perpendicular blocking the entire aisle. I've been going to this exact costco for a year now and it still happens all the time.

Every costco has a very strange ecosystem of how the people act, like a little capitalist terrarium

e: they also have surprisingly different food selections depending on location, even in the same city often times. I used to live in Santa Cruz but always had to make a pilgrimate to Sunnyvale costco to get my indian food bulk stuff because even the other costcos near it in the bay didn't have that stuff.

The best thing the PNW Costcos have that others don't, and its not even close, it's cheap chanterelles during Fall. They used to be CRAZY cheap, like $9.50 a pound. They're more now, but still a fraction of most places when they're in stock. PNW costco also used to get cheap builk cherries but climate change has put the kibosh on that real hard lately...

Bought the Kirkland brand flushable wipes and it's reminding me of the weird examples of where certain Kirkland brand things are genuinely worse quality then the premium brand, and saving a couple bucks is not worth it.

The other notable example was paper towels, which at some point in the last few years went from good to trash quality.

flushable wipes are dumb as hell any way. they gently caress up everyones plumbing. Just get a bidet for a clean rear end.

It's this.

I got one during Covid and boy oh boy I won't ever be without. Then last year I went to Japan, the Country of the Bidet and had a clean rear end everywhere even while away from home.

We put off buying a bidet forever because we wanted a fancy electric Toto one. Then we got one and had to return it because we didn’t have an outlet near the toilet.

Now I have a cheap $30 Amazon thing that doesn’t warm my rear end or the water but it’s already life changing. We waited too long.

It's all I've ever seen in my entire life. Everywhere.

Posters in this thread have complained about the leaking.

hmm, now that I think of it, I may have only ever gotten one rotisserie chicken in my life. Maybe 15 years ago.

Every grocery store where I live has been using bags for the better part of a decade. Gotta make sure the bag is secure in transit.

Does Costco sell a bidet strong enough to effortlessly fire right up your rear end in a top hat like the Japanese ones? If not no sale.

Their fresh baked bread is unmatched. Went there today to get two loaves of that and some Rao's marinara. Of course I got a slice on my way out. Forgot a quarter for water and burned the poo poo out of my mouth. Totally worth it, I'll do it again.

This was around 10:30 on a Sunday, so the post-church crowd was out. Had to listen to some insufferable old lady talk about the gospel and how people are selfish and blah blah blah while I wolfed my food. Might've ruined the meal if I wasn't so high on the fact that this big-rear end slice of pizza was only $2.
