Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't have the storage or regular cooking habits to be able to take advantage of their grocery store. I'm pretty much stocked up fine with alcohol. I really shouldn't buy any more electronics of any sort. I don't like their clothes. So that leaves pretty much: gas, kitchen/bathroom supplies, and pharmacy.

How long would it take me to save $50 in just those parts of the store? I know full well the temptation of Costco to make me spend more than I would otherwise.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't think you'd save enough for the gas and paper goods to make it worth it, because you're just one person and don't drive much. The pharmacy I don't use, so I don't know, but maybe. Some of the groceries might still appeal to you, like juice, oatmeal (they don't have steel cut, though), fresh fruit. But the baked goods supplies are enormous in size. Huge flour sacks, 10 lb bags of sugar and the like.

I don't know. But $50 is also not a huge cost. If you really want to know we can go sometime.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I've earned myself major points at work for going to costco on a regular basis and buying snacks, which the firm pays for.

Add that to the gas (I now live about 4 blocks from a Costco with a gas station), the Izze, the cat litter, and the new vacuum I am about to buy, and it is totally worth the membership

Let me think about it some more, bon.

Costco:

  • Cheapest decent coffee beans
  • Cheap OTC drugs like ibuprofen
  • Good beef
  • Best return and warranty on electronics
  • Good prices on office supplies, if you can deal with the quantities
  • Least guilt-inducing politics and treatment of employees

Because books.

I don't think we have Costco. We do have BJ's, though, which we've been meaning to join again.

Sara lost another tooth, almost entirely through determination. She wiggled that sucker for an hour this morning until it came out. Maybe she's low on cash.

Yeah, why does the Migraine Inducing Lobby have so much power in America anyway?
