| Get my pies outta the oven!  |
The Kirkland hearing aid thread made me think of the things I really love from Costco. Their Mac & Cheese is out of this world! We just had it last night and I swear it's a ratio of 50% cheese and 50% macaroni, it's that good! What do you all like from Costco? | ||

Their tortilla soup (double pack) is delicious. Lots of chicken and a decent amount of veggies. I also like the Del Real tamales, both pork and chicken.

Their ribeye steaks, hellishly expensive, but terrific. Frozen fish--salmon and cod filets. Bacon, usually the applewood smoked. The uncooked tortillas _______________________________________________________ despite them | |||

I like how they have large packs of LED bulbs at some ridiculous low price when you break it down. I think I paid like $1 each for 850 lumen Feit bulbs a couple weeks back? | |||

Milk, butter, and eggs are staples when I go there. Did I mention two teenage boys? Cheers~ | |||

Also love their chicken salad. Dress socks and underwear are also a Costco staple for me. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom. Every man should have several guns. And several dogs, because a man with a cat is a woman. Kurt Schlichter | |||

Their meatballs are excellent. ******************************************************** "we've gotta roll with the punches, learn to play all of our hunches Making the best of what ever comes our way Forget that blind ambition and learn to trust your intuition Plowing straight ahead come what may And theres a cowboy in the jungle" Jimmy Buffet | |||

Anyone have a bad experiences with Costco milk? I've returned gallons of 2% milk on three occasions given it appeared to be spoiled. ----------------------------- Guns are awesome because they shoot solid lead freedom.

Costco meats - especially beef - steaks, filet mignon, etc. EXCELLENT! I am constantly amazed at how good their beef is - comparable to the high-end mail order beef. | |||

We now use Aldi 100% of the time for those items, their prices are incredible for staples like that, even Costco and Walmart can't beat them. I tasted Aldi's butter next to a major supermarket brand for twice the price and found no difference whatsoever in flavor or quality. | |||

| I believe in the principle of Due Process  |
I've been a member since 1976, a few months after Mr. Price opened Price Club in Rose Canyon in San Diego. Costco was started by a Price Club exec, and eventually those two merged. We use a great many Costco products, paper products, coffee, butter, cheeses, wine, various fish, some meats, the roasted chicken for $5, many, many others. Tires, batteries, iPads, TVs, printer refills, letter paper, light bulbs. I think our kitchen pans are from Costco, too. After buying dress shirts at Nordies for ~$70 each, I found dress shirts indistinguishable in quality and style for $18. I seldom wear shirts like that these days, but I'm ready. I think we are still working on the 55 gallon barrel of mayo I bought years ago! Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Eggs were great, really large and a great deal but that all went away. About the time Brad Pitt and some celebrity chain of fools protested on behalf of chickens and their living conditions. That ended the good affordable eggs at Costco. Now it's crazy expensive hippie eggs only. I'm now becoming pretty sure 'organic' just means dirty. Aldi rules for eggs now. And a great many other things too. | |||

They got rid of Polish sausage a while back, maybe around the end of 2016? Hot dog is the only option now w/ the drink. My favorite thing at Costco is probably the gas. | |||

+1 on the lunch deal. Their jeans used to be great but they switched to Chinese-made last year and the new ones aren't so good anymore - I've switched to Wranglers for $18/pair at BiMart (absolutely refuse to pay $40-50 for Levis  ).Yeah, the mac & cheese and enchilada dinners are among my favorites too. Chicken jerky treats for the dogs - even my finicky one loves them. Their steaks are really good, if a bit spendy. | |||
