I'm now "a member", but still not a huge fan.

I don't want to buy 24 croissants at once.

I don't want 16 lbs of butter.

Electronics aren't any cheaper than BestBuy, although they do give you an extra year of warranty.

And it's too depressing to have to walk by their take out food counter after you buy your stuff, and see the over-fed hogs munching away at the trough. Children should not be eating hot dogs larger than their legs. Even if it is $2 a dog.

Buy the meat, store it in a deep freezer. That's the purpose of Costco, to stock up on Meat.

we both work from home, I was trained by chefs, and she still does 80% of the cooking.

except for BBQ nights... she's not allowed to tough it, and she knows.

It is not all that bad, it works for us so no fighting, I make a list for the week and just follow it, I have my comfy chair next to the BBQ.

Nice love wood floors but not with Vito the destroyer and not in this condo
- Yeti1181


ya we got 2 largish dogs too. And the floors are the original Oak - 50 yr old house. stained it dark cause that's what it was before. Dogs are scratching it up pretty good but the dark hides it, though it shows the hair and dirt more, so place is only clean for about 20 minutes after we vacuum

Now that we reno'ed our house, our BBQ is soooo much easier to get to.

I'm practically living on the back deck, bbq'ing up stuff.

Life is good.

ya guys with size who can win faceoffs aren't important. I mean, hell, Leafs didn't win a single faceoff in the last 5 mins of regulation in game 7, and that didn't hurt them at all I don't think...

I'm still sorting that out.

A friend tells me it's great if you are having a party - go up there and load up on meat for the bbq and crap like that.

Yeah, right.

When we have friends over, it's usually a frantic 2 hour rush to grab something - anything - and make sure the kids haven't pooped on the floor in the bathrooms.

I don't have time to go to Costco (which is not conveniently located anywhere close to midtown Toronto).

I think last time I was there, it was a 48 pack of juice boxes for the kids, some arts and craft supplies for the kids, and some athletic socks for me. Not exactly worth the 40 minutes and $80 in gas to get there.

- Atomic Wedgie

Paper goods, non-perishables, vitamins, Advil, shampoo, pasta, fruits and vegetables (not all - I don't need 20lbs of anything). Athletic socks is correct, cereal, detergents, etc.

I had to install a solar spotlight on the deck pointed at the BBQ cause I'm out there late all the time

I just tend to work later than her most of the time so if she doesn't cook we wouldn't eat till 10 or 11pm every night

I'm now "a member", but still not a huge fan.

I don't want to buy 24 croissants at once.

I don't want 16 lbs of butter.

Electronics aren't any cheaper than BestBuy, although they do give you an extra year of warranty.

And it's too depressing to have to walk by their take out food counter after you buy your stuff, and see the over-fed hogs munching away at the trough. Children should not be eating hot dogs larger than their legs. Even if it is $2 a dog.

Food is cheaper.


It's the best place to buy meat.


I get excited just thinking about my next Costco run!!!
