So do you understand the love, brenda? What am I missing?
not really. And the have really shitty service in the stores, generally.
Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

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

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

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?

And they are quite literally outside our bedroom window because our landlord hired the plumber to redo the vent on our gas water heater...which needs to be done and is good that it's being fixed but oh dear god too early on a Saturday.
Impressively, ND has fallen back asleep. I swear, I want that superpower.
