bagmonkey posted:I spent like $145 last night and I got a bunch of beverages (including the $25 case of Monster, its so cheap I figure why not stock up) and some socks and one of those stupidly huge bags of cheddar/caramel popcorn and some multivitamins and other poo poo, I went right around closing time and it was very peaceful Our Costco business center has all flavors of monster in single flavor cases… it’s awesome. Takes us a while to go through but it’s so much cheaper

I live in the ghetto apartments next door to the swanky ones… Costco is just as close for me and I pay way less for my area. The buildings are falling apart though lol. 500 feet is just about correct for me I think. I’ll have to measure next time I go It’s glorious, totally recommend

ixo posted:we've funded a long term storage study with some egg scientists, should be published sometime this year. they found that they're safe to eat up even up to around the 6 month mark*. quality declines and it'll lose the ability to do things like hold structure in an angel food cake, for instance, but it won't kill you. Please post a link to this when it’s published… this is a topic of conversation that comes up more often than it should and has a wide range of beliefs

I’m terrified of messing up the whole USDA choice loins we get sometimes from the biz center for a little less than that total price Haven’t messed one up yet though and they are delicious at $14.99/lb

Lol, I was about to say that it wasn’t as good as breyers, but the Costco premium vanilla is good. We ate the crap out of it for a while. Maybe my ice cream critical abilities are off. I don’t think I’ve ever had baaaaaad ice cream. I mean I don’t love the stuff that has so much air in it that they can’t call it ice cream, but even that tastes pretty good e: typos

pentyne posted:Breyer's isn't legally allowed to call their product ice cream. If that's your benchmark for quality you are way off. Tbh it’s been a long time since I had it… but it was always so good! Little vanilla bean flecks and such. That’s a bummer

I live right across the street from church… as in we go there every other day and carry one of the insulated Costco bags you get when you sign up for auto renewal. We almost never get a cart either. Most of the Costco employees know us and say hi and/or ask where my partner is when I go alone. As you. An imagine, we have the routine down. Every time one of the Costco peeps tries to help on self-checkout, it always makes things take longer. It’s really annoying if someone knew thinks they can help out. That said, I don’t blame them. We live in the ghetto part of a rich neighborhood of olds. I’ve seen them pull up with a cart to self-checkout and literally wait for someone to scan everything for them. You wouldn’t think someone on a mobility scooter would go to self-checkout but you’d be wrong. Most church trips are a blessing though. And we don’t get a ton of special treatment at the door when they check the receipt. I’m actually impressed even though it sucks to have to put down a shoulder bag with kitty litter and vinegar weighing 60lbs so they can check it. Meh, they got a job to do.

As someone who lives across from Costco, aside from the occasional rare truck horn/beeping from the loading dock, they are excellent neighbors. I even use their dumpster sometimes when ours is full. PBUC

Alan Smithee posted:Yo what time does Costco shut down the free air I do not know offhand but I know the gas pumps stay open for 1 hour after closing. I literally asked the manager. They also open earlier than the store but I don’t have specifics. Neither one helps you though I guess, sorry about that

It depends Look at the warranty offered by the manufacturer, compare the two in terms, why’s covered and how long they are. Then decide if the cost is worth it. On big ticket items, I’ll get it if it seems reasonable. It’s paid off on our espresso machine at Best Buy and my partners laptop also at Best Buy. Both broke greater than a year later and were either replaced (espresso machine) or fixed (the laptop). I’m sure I’ve bought it a couple of times and not used it, but it’s definitely been worth it for those two items. I get that getting it on a smaller item can be dumb, or if it’s less than a year and the mfg warranties for a year, and especially if you don’t trust the place to honor it. But I’m a believer. Costco might be different though? Do t you get an insane warranty/return policy on everything if you have the citi card and use it to purchase? Idk, I haven’t bought anything big ticket from Costco in a while

lol, from Mr Mom: Keaton: "Where does your mommy keep the vacuum cleaner?" Kid: "you mean JAWS?" Keaton: "Your mommy calls the vacuum cleaner JAWS?" kid: "y-y-yeah" (uses wooden spoon to point off-screen, flicking chili everywhere) Anywho... Can the rest of the parishioners give me some feedback on what air filter is best? They have a bunch of choices online: I assume Winix is the way to go no matter what 1 -- Winix True HEPA 4 Stage Air Purifier with Wi-Fi and Additional Filter: $129.99 2 -- Winix C555 Air Cleaner with PlasmaWave Technology: $139.99 3 -- Winix C909 4-Stage Air Purifier with Wi-Fi & PlasmaWave Technology: $199.99 Comedy option that I don't have the $$$ for X -- Winix Tower XQ Air Purifier: $569.99 It's for our bedroom that's only about 400 sq ft, but we have pets and the air quality in our town is terrible and so we may want to overbuy. Anyone have a reason to prefer one over the other or have issues with one of these?

Yo, we live across from ours… driving would literally take us longer to get there. I feel like Costco Igor be taking over our lives since we now get as much as possible from them lol. I can’t remember the last time I’ve had non-Costco pizza Pro-tip: they set up stands to give out free bags to incentivize you to turn on auto-renewal. We set it up, got a nice, free cooler bag, went on the website and turned it off… then in a couple of months, they’ll put out a stand again and we get another free bag. Repeat We love the bags and Costco. Church provides

Hey what’s the time frame for executive rewards to get paid out? This will be my first time getting one and I just renewed on 9/1… or am I wrong that it’s based on membership renewal date?

So I know that the warranty on laptops even when using the Citibank card has been curtailed a lot recently… but what is it now exactly? Looking to get a laptop for my daughter and wanted to see if a Costco one would fit the bill. Also if anyone has purchased one recently and have opinions let me know about that if you can/want to

I have one very close by and it’s nice to hear that the warranty isn’t poo poo. Fwiw i too have had pretty good luck having warranties come in handy for the items I do buy them for. I don’t know what it is with electronics nowadays but a lot of poo poo seems to break in 2-3 years or last forever…

Yeah, a business center wouldn’t be confused for a regular warehouse I wouldn’t think. There’s no clothing at all except for PPE. No laptops, technology section in favor of commercial kitchen equipment displays. No optometrist or eyeglasses And the single walk-in in the back is the size of all of the refrigerated sections put together in my local Costco. YMMV of course, but that’s how it is in my neck of the woods
