The COSTCO Thread

[Jeff Lebowski]

Whoa. Just got an e-mail informing me that the Kirkland Temple (R) now does same day delivery of groceries to our neighborhood. Game changer.

[MartyFunkhouser]

Fuck you Costco. Seriously, fuck you.

I apologize for the language, but they deserve this right now.

I remember when Costco just had a cart with polish dogs and a vending machine outside the entrance. I would go with my dad to Costco as a kid so that I could get the $1.50 polish dog and drink. The food court exists because of the polish dog. They should just blow the whole fucking food court up if they aren't going to sell the polish dog anymore.

Also, meatless Al Pastor Salad. What the fuck Costco, what the ever loving fuck. Another reason why the food court needs to die a slow and painful death. It is an abomination.

[Jeff Lebowski]

I love you, funk.

Is this the Millennials fault?
Is the fault of the SJW?

I'll join the crusade against whomever is at fault. I'd join forces with DHO to fight against this crime against humanity.

Also, thank you for indulging the language Dude. I hope that these f-words do not go towards my unknown lifetime allotment.

I always get regular hot dogs (and a drink) rather than polish dogs when I have lunch there, so this change doesn't really affect me.

My daughter and her husband are big Costco fans. They've been bugging us for years to get a membership. Finally, last Christmas they gave us a membership as a gift. I don't normally buy enough stuff there to justify a membership, but recently I purchased ten 5-Shelf Storage Racks to hold all of my wife's "treasures" in the back of my garage, and probably saved about $15 each over the local hardware stores. That right there was worth more than the membership. But I doubt that I'll renew the membership for another year. They just don't have much that I want and the sizes of most things are way too large for two people.

Eww. But why though?

Also, I echo the remarks of funk. Thanks for dropping the F bombs for me buddy!

Amen.

I was in a Costco last week and they said something about not having polish dogs anymore. After I left, I thought maybe they meant they didn't have any more that day. I mean, how could they discontinue polish dogs? Plus, they advertised the new acai berry thing supplanting the chocolate yogurt for a week or two. Surely they would have concurrently warned of the upcoming abolition of the polish dog?

But then, a few days later in a different Costco, they had covered up the "Polish Dog" part of the sign and I knew things would never be the same.

F-bomb away, funkster.

[old_gregg]

ftr the murder of those freshly dipped chocolate/almond ice cream bars is a worse tragedy than the polish dogs

[Walter Sobchak]

Give me names funkster, these Costco executives live in my community... I will search them out and shame them into oblivion. They will never be able to enjoy a craft beer in peace again!

[Scott R Nelson]

Vacuum sealer ftw.

Thanks for the reminder. I need to get one of those before my card expires.

[Northwestcoug]

I've never had a polish dog or Acai bowl at Costco. True story.
