Chicken melts are pretty gross, I'd stick with the pizza and hot dogs.

let it mellow posted:Costco mostly owns but I heard good things about the Kirkland beer so I bought some, it wasn't very good and apparently that varies based on your region I thought the Kirkland Bourbon was good, but then after I bought it one time I realized that I was already drunk before I tasted it the first time. Its not good and overpriced.

Their knockoff outdoor clothing is pretty good. Softshell jackets and puffer coats are pretty much identical to Colombia and North Face.

I tried buying a car through Costco, the prices were okay but not great. I ended up going the traditional route of having a friend of a friend hook me up at the dealership. Probably wouldn't attempt again.

The only person I know with an expensive watch is my rich uncle, and my aunt bought it for him as a gift with his own money since she doesn't have a job. You literally need to have enough money that you don't care if family members just drop thousands of your own money on jewelry.

Sometimes I go to the regular grocery store because it's closer and have deep guilt for not taking full advantage of my Costco membership. But I just bought a 7 cu ft chest freezer, so it's on.

Pick posted:Like most stores, Trader Joe's has some good deals to get you in the door, and some bad deals to take your money. As noted, the produce is terrible. But their frozen vegetables (like leeks) are great. Trader Joe's - cheese, coffee, junk food Costco - meat, toilet paper, eggs, avocados, household items Ralph's - meat, vegetables, occasional good liquor on clearance for some reason Persian Market - vegetables, herbs, mexican beef, single chicken breasts that are somehow 2lbs each Smart and Final - beer, oh poo poo I forgot something and I don't want to drive far

Lol if you think cooking is some kind of art full of opinions and free spirits. Art doesn't exist. It's all hard science, and the best are so especially skilled and drilled in the rules that they can make fools think art is happening. Like you think the dude wrapping his polish up in his pizza slice is some fatlord savant, but he's hitting all the basic rules of culinary excellence.

grellgraxer posted:Anyone bought a car through Costco recently? Can you get a significantly better deal than normal dealership bargaining? Depends on the make and model , but usually you can get a better price if you're a shrewd negotiator. it's a decent price though if you do not want to negotiate.

Haverchuck posted:if theres that many costcos near you then you live in an area with incredible population density, likely in the northeast and you are not travelling to 6 different anything in a half hour SoCal. Costcos I am referencing are from San Juan Capistrano to Tustin. It would be a challenge during the time they are serving the samples.

Mons Hubris posted:For travel and restaurants you should really be using the Chase Sapphire Reserve though.... I was using Sapphire Preferred for a few years. I ran the numbers, even with the Chase points being worth an extra 25% when booking travel, I should get at least the same or more in direct cash if I run everything through the Costco card.

I put super in my turbo car at Costco and it's cheaper than buying regular elsewhere. It can take regular but it detunes the engine by 10 or 15 HP or some weak rear end poo poo.

Xaris posted:Lucky, they're remodelling or doing some construction work at the gas station for my costco , which was already gigantically busy as poo poo store and has to be a top 10 for busy-ness already, and now the gas line is loving retarded and loops all the way around the street almost to the other entrance. i've basically just paying an extra quarter/gal at a local corner gas station than wait easily 30+ minutes to save maybe $2 They close off half the parking lot at Irvine for the gas line during rush hour. Its insane. I've never been more than two cars back at this other one.

Been using Kirkland Baby Wipes on my baby for 6 months. No rashes. My nephews used them their whole diaper careers. No issues there. I've used them on my hands after changing the baby, on my face after a meal on the go, and on my dick after banging my wife. Everything is clean and clear.

FAT CURES MUSCLES posted:Costco has individually wrapped frozen chicken breasts for $19 for a 6(.5?)lb bag. Their frozen tubes of ground beef are legit. Not overground or too mushed together. The other day, I defrosted a tube, sliced it up into quarters, took the plastic off, and just flattened them down into burgers. shoophobo posted:My mom signed up for the new BJ's that is opening soon and added me on her membership.

Kelp Me! posted:Ok so I'm trying to justify the cost of just owning up and buying my own drat membership. The thing is, meat and cheeses and produce are great but it's just me and my wife and even supermarket produce has a tendency to go bad because we wait too long. So I'm trying to compile a list of non-perishables that justify the membership cost. So far I've got: Gasoline is like $0.10-$0.30 cents per gallon cheaper, depending on where your Costco is at. Then double down with the Costco Credit Card for an additional 4% cash back.
