I just applied and got accepted for the new Costco Visa today. So I guess it's time to cut up my Amex issued by my bank and just let them keep jacking that credit limit to the sky.

Not sure about other countries, but in the US if there is no fee on that Amex, I'd let it sit around as it will help your credit history.

Yeah that's the plan. We've had it since we got married and the credit limit is somehow like 16k now, which is insane to me. I figured I'd cut the physical card up, but it helps my credit by being the oldest line of credit I have and by having a large line that I'm not utilizing. So it'll stay, but I just won't be able to accidentally spend on it and gently caress up my budgeting/rewards.

You sure it wasn't temporary? The higher quality bourbon was gone for a month but then it came back.

I'm always a bit worried my favorite only-at-costco stuff will go away and never come back. It happened when I was a kid with Sinai Kosher dogs, and I've never fully trusted them since.

Does Kirkland have good frozen lasagnas? This is very important.

I was told it is being discontinued.

Hopefully it does come back with a new label or something, though, cause that stuff was awesome for the price.

They have good fresh ones that you could freeze. (They are not cheaper than the grocery store though)

Costco here seems to sell Bluray at the fake MSRP that every manufacturer sells way below. So they're like $10 more than anywhere else.

Was disappointed today to see that Costco no longer carries the Bolthouse 100% carrot juice and instead had some really expensive kale and vegetable juice in its place.

The place near me also finally put up the calories on their fast food restaurant items, so now I know never to order the 700+ calorie per slice cheese pizza again.

Where in Oregon if you don't mind my asking? I'm a cigar smoker and it just never occurred to me to look in Costco since I thought they only sold cig cartons.

All it takes is a single napkin (okay probably two) to cut that down to like 400 calories though.

Yeah but then you need to put some kind of condiment on the napkins so they taste good, and we're back to square 1.

I'm a hermaphrodite and my parents (40K nerds) named me Slaanesh, THANKS MOM

When I was a kid it was 1/4 :allears:. $1.50 for 1/4 of an 18 inch pizza and a drink with unlimited refils, god those were the days. Top it off with a churro and a new computer game on my birthday, good times

63.6 square inches of pizza for $1.50
The 6th is only 42.4 square inches

Assuming I remember math correctly. I'm no math geek but I thought that would be fun to figure out

Sauntered up to the Visa kiosk they had set up at my local motherfuckin' COSTCO to sign up for my credit card cause drat that cash back looks nice. Walked away with a card with a $4,000 limit. What the gently caress?! My credit ain't that great, COSTCO, maybe you should have checked that. Whatever, buying a bedroom set for 3k later!

Does COSTCO have options for assembly? Cause gently caress if I'm putting together my own bed.

Are the salmon burgers located in the freezer section or? I haven't seen them when I've went these past few times.
My brother started working at the first costco in our state so I got that sweet sweet free family membership. That $1.60-2.30/gallon of milk is worth it alone, considering everywhere else is $3.00+.

The granola bars are pretty good too.

Yup. Bought a pack Friday.

Last time I went they didn't have them though. Must be a stock thing.

Found some cool looking cognac in a bottle for 37.99 but didn't buy it because I don't really drink so I dunno if I'd like cognac or not. Spiffy bottle though.

I finally got a membership for my boyfriend and myself. They managed to spell both of our last names wrong on the cards.

The food is great, the discounts are great, but the rumors that it's a more pleasant shopping experience than Walmart don't seem to apply at my local store. We saw lots of uncontrolled children, angry old people, and 2 scooterfats. The place was surprisingly crowded for a weekday afternoon.

It was worth it for the awesome frozen spanakopita, cheap milk, and enough toilet paper to last a few months.
