    I was hanging out in Costco last night, waiting for my husband who was applying for the new Costco visa card. With nothing better to do, I loitered near the returns desk, and asked the guy what was the most ridiculous return he ever processed. This is what he said:

    There's this lady who buys boxes of sun chips multi packs. There are four flavors in the box: original, cheese, ranch, etc. Well, she hates the ranch flavor, so she eats the other 3 flavors, then brings back all of the ranch packages, and exchanges it for an entirely new box of sun chips. Which includes her hated ranch flavor.
    I found it funny that you named three of four flavors, and substituted the forth flavor with "etc". I had to know the rest of the story, so I looked it up on Costco. Now I'm confused.

    • the etc means that I dont have the exact details of all the flavors. So, in general, 4 flavors, of which I have a general notion of what the flavors are. And are the exact flavor names really THAT important to the story?

      • That's funny, KL. I bet they have tons of crazy stories.

          I'll bet it's the garden salsa flavor she returns. Those are gross.

          There's three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who's got the same first name as a city; and never go near a lady's got a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock

          • I cannot believe that people are that selfish/shameless to continually buy a product they know they don't like with the full intent to use part and return it again. I hate the fact that I am paying more for my products because some a-hole takes advantage of a generous return policy.

Your bare assertions do not make it so. Maybe your reasoning is too stunted and your vocabulary is too limited to go without these epithets."

                    • For those of you that travel to Hawaii.

                      Don't buy your new board shorts prior to going. All of the Costco's on the island have decent board shorts for $7-$20. Much easier to swallow than the $55 Volcom's I bought.

                      Stock up and save.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                          I would return the whole box. I don't need grain in my chips.

                            I fully abide by the rules and regulations set forth in the membership agreement. Those rules and regulations are established by Costco I might add.
