Planned to clean the pistols I took to the range Wednesday. But the man cave (still a work in progress) is cold and I thought "Why haul the supplemental space heater for the computer room down there again? Just go get another." "Honey, when you were on Costco last, did they still have space heaters?" "I think so," she replied. Off we went. Well, no, they didn't have any space heaters. What they did have was 43" Samsung 1080P TVs that were on the chopping block. I don't need nor want 4K, so I figured I'd save the $70 while the savin' was good. Walked in for a small electric space heater. Walked out with a 43" TV  (No, the pistols did not get cleaned.) "America is at that awkward stage.

I usually walk in for one or two items and walk out $300 lighter. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

They're masters at that shit. "Hey, I think I'll drop by for one of them $1.50 dogs. What a deal. I'll save a lotta money." Nay. Nay. When a thing is funny, search it carefully for a hidden truth. - George Bernard Shaw | |||

Quit staring at my wife's Butt |
The wife and I went in to get a few things and bought so much crap that we couldn't fit it all in the vehicle so we had to make two trips, after we picked up the second load we laughed all the way home. | |||

| Just an ACARS message with feelings  |
Pro tip: DON't USE A CART. I go to costco rarely these days (because Sams club is closer to where I live) but when I do I make myself a list and never grab a cart on the way in. I usually head to the frozen food section and grab a box to put my items in. It's a pain carrying all my stuff around but I have saved a ton of $$ ____________________________ 220/229/228/226/P6/225/XO/SP2022/239 | |||

| You can't go home again  |
I've never spent less than $100 at Costco even when I went in to get bottled water for $4 a case. It's horrible, we just ran out of milk this morning because I kept putting off going there to get more for the same reason. It's a running joke in our house. --------------------------------------- Life Member NRA “If you realize that all things change, there is nothing you will try to hold on to.

They just replaced the carts at our local Costco with even BIGGER carts.  But the same cart rules still apply: You cannot leave Costco until the cart is full."The Truth, when first uttered, is always considered heresy." | |||

Absolutely not! Only weak willed shallow minded people do such things. BTW, I still believe in Santa Claus.  | |||

I let my membership lapse. They never had what I needed. I did get a couple of years worth of hearing aid batteries though. | |||

More often than not. But I do only get a cart when it's TP, tissue or PT time and I get those first to fill it faster.
