Jingleheimer posted:I have a Costco bacon story from about 6 or 7 years ago. As a Costco forklift driver, there was a time where I was hungry at work and had nothing to eat. I decided to buy a pack of the Kirkland pre-cooked bacon and have it sitting on my forklift while I was working so I could nibble on it throughout my shift. I would drive up to my coworkers and offer them a piece of bacon, and they would say stuff like "uh, no thanks, I'm good. Why the hell do you have bacon on your lift to snack on? That's ridiculous." And I would respond with something like "Hey man, weird or not, if you don't want to enjoy a piece of bacon, that's your problem." This story is 100% true and I don't know if I should be proud or ashamed that it happened on more than one occasion. I would very much appreciate a coworker rolling up with bacon ready to go. That's great.

pentyne posted:Business Centers are a great space for things they weirdly don't sell in regular Costcos. The sell the Kirkland 1/2 lb Polish dogs in their fridge section, the same kind that used to be sold in the food court. Their freezer section is stocked a lot better too. In Canada, we get the Kirkland polish dogs in the fridge section. Did they remove them from USA stores? I'm happy my local brought back the KD shaker. It would seem they listened to my request in the feedback box. I grew up loving kraft dinner, but learned later that I have celiac disease. Now I can make any gluten free pasta into kraft dinner, and use that nasty "cheese" sauce to convince my kid to eat any vegetables.

Douchebag posted:I never saw Page 257 until today but this is the Church Meat I made on Christmas. You gonna finish that? Renegret posted:My problem with the cart return at Costco is that there aren't enough of them. I take my kid with me to go shopping pretty often. There's no chance I'm taking my eyes off of him for a second in a parking lot so I make him get in the car and buckle in while I'm loading it up. But I also tend to park towards the back of the lot where there's no cart returns so now I'm stuck either leaving my son alone in my car unsupervised in a busy parking lot while I return it, or just leave the cart behind. I hate both options. Seems like you could use some kind of quick release hitch , so you could just sort of tow the cart through the lot, and unhitch as you idle past the front door. Drop it off on the way by kind of thing. B33rChiller fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Dec 31, 2023 |

Yeah, that's the part I wasn't going to argue about. Just that assuming you see someone using something in a certain way shouldn't lead to assumptions about their abilities overall. It started to sound like it could be a preamble to "well they don't look disabled, why do they get a special parking permit" kind of things. Our local is usually great for carts going where they should, and the fella I usually see running around the lot appears to enjoy cart duty, so no fight nor dog in it here.

That xmas piano took 10 minutes to finangle into a Nissan versa. It ended up buckled into a fully reclined passenger seat. Could probably strap a TV down flat to the roof. Bring a tarp, or shop on a sunny day.

Involuntary Sparkle posted:One of the frustrating things as of late is all of the manufacturers adding additional sesame ingredients to their products rather than better manage their allergen programs. I work in the food industry (food scientist) and I get that allergen programs can be onerous but a lot of products have newly added surprise sesame, including a major local bakery in the PNW. Every drat frozen French fry offered at my local has wheat or a combo of wheat and barley on them. How the hell do you not have plain fries? Simplest dang prepared food on the market, and they can't make it safe for celiacs. Vvvv that looks better than the one I have. Throw's too short, can't load longer taters. Buddy in college had a hand held one , with handles on the sides of the cutter. Lop off the end of your spud, stand it up on the counter, and swiftly plunge the cutter down on it. Could cut fries of any length. Frozen have the bonus of already being parboiled. Starting from scratch is a bunch more work to get good fries.

Soul Dentist posted:My good friend quit smoking on that medicine and said that it gave him suicidal ideation almost 24/7. But it was about other people killing themselves. He would just imagine other people jumping to their deaths or shooting themselves over and over again I tried a couple different ones for quitting smoking, and they both gave me strange, and terrifying dreams that were more convincing than reality. Sleeping with the patch on gives about a quarter to half the dream bending strength.

Zero VGS posted:I've been to the UK and your restaurants can't even produce edible food so I'm not surprised if the baker in the back of Costco was lacking in some areas. When in the UK, eat the foods that have come from the former colonies. If you can't get a good curry there, you're doing a lot wrong. Also, Yorkshire pudding, and haggis kick rear end.

Costco needs to lean on the BC gov and get a liquor license. Closest we get is the big double brew your own wine kits. Hell, they should get a cannabis license too, with a sale quantity exemption. We're capped at an Oz / person max.
