Costco
 

this place for all you noobs.

anyhow, some of my favorite food items here are the rotisserie chicken, taquitos (delimex steak brand?), and some of their steaks.

I usually get some Soy Milk as well.

What does your typical list look like?

Re: Costco
 

the point of costco is to buy the absolute biggest quantity of something that you can, not to buy single rotisserie chickens and steaks.

Re: Costco
 

My favorite item is whatever samples they're handing out that day. Drives the wife crazy. She shops while I run from sample stand to sample stand eating a bunch of crap. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Re: Costco
 

I usually eat out, so when I go to costco I only buy stuff like Cheezits, Milk, Tortillas, Pepperjack Cheese, Muffins, etc.

However back when I used to "cook" I would buy the french bread pizza, which is incredible. Also potstickers and Taquitos.

Re: Costco
 

The chicken bakes are rad. So are tons of free samples.

Yes, the giant boxes. Also, the stuffed jalepenos.

Re: Costco
 

Of course the best thing about costco is the hotdog + drink for $1.62 (incl tax)

I've never gone to Costco and not eaten 2 hotdogs on the way out.

Looks to be Burning Man.

Damned hippies. She's moderately attractive though.

Re: Costco
 

It's all about getting the flatbed pushcart, seeing how much you can pile on and figuring out what you got when you get home (and finish your hot dogs).

What's Burning Man? What's the story behind this pic? I will be lobbying hard for naked Costco workers here.

I've not had the hot dogs. Should i try them? Are they really good? Are they worth saving some room for? maybe I'll forego my third trip to the toasted ravioli or crab salad sample cart next time.

OTTERPOPS

CHOCOLATE MILK

CHILI

Re: Costco
 

they have a seasoned whole porkloin that is fantastic.

I also like the gallon jugs of salsa and the giant bricks of velveeta. Nuke those together and you're set for the weekend!

A hippy fest where a bunch of hippy drug users go out to the middle of the desert, do a bunch of drugs and listen to hippy music. They also apparently burn a giant "man" one of the hippies made.

This is a good idea, and I'd vote for you.

One good thing about Burning Man is the website has lots of good desert camping tips.

However.

Hippies suck.

Edit: Christ! Hippie titty made me forget what the thread topic was.

I'm married with a kid. Giant portions of toilet paper, baby wipes and paper towels. And a few cases of Diet 7Up.

You had never heard of Costco? Don't bash it just because you were raised in a barn or basement or something (they probably just don't have them where you were raised but I'm going to be an ass).

Also, you don't need to be a Costco member to buy alcohol. Federal law mandates that alcohol, prescription drugs, medical type stuff, and some other things have to be available to anyone. Don't exactly know why alcohol fits into that category, but it's great because all I really ever buy at Costco is alcohol.

Re: Costco
 

I used to buy all my beer at Sam's Club (same thing as Costco) and on more than one occasion had to inform the cashier that I did not have to be a member to buy beer, and ask to see a manager if they continued to insist that I needed a membership.

Ribs, when they have them. Lately, I've been getting the granola and/or the Aussie Bites (though those look pretty straightforward to make).

Costco cookies are terrific.

The last ribs iu got there were pretty good. but they have no clue about brisket. They trim all the fat off. You can't smoke a damn brisket w/ no fat on it.

Re: Costco
 

Toilet Paper
Mach III razor replacement heads
Books
DVDs
Fresh bread
Beer/Wine/soda/other drinks

Usually a Polish Sausage dog with mustard, relish, and onions on the way out, and maybe a slice of pizza. Mmmmmm.

They are extremely good though, plus its only $1.62

Just grab one on the way out. Its a nice big dog on a sesame seed bun. Very yummy. I used to take my girlfriend there on our dates.

The extremely good part hooks me. The only $1.62 doesn't. You realize a whole pack of dogs is like half that much in the meat section?

What kind of white trash ghetto dogs are you buying? Are those things made with horsemeat or something? The decent dogs are $2-$3 a pack minimum.

Re: Costco
 

the way your question is phrased, it should be like "what kind of meat are they, Unicorn?!"

they're talking about buying individual, cooked hotdogs, not a package of them.

Diapers
Baby Wipes

The above all in quantities sufficient to see me through a 90-day siege.

Toothbrush heads for the Oral-B
Beer
High-end liquor (Patron, single malts)
Wine
Hamburger
Fruit
Vegetables
Socks

Oh, dude, don't get me wrong. Back when I was a broke ass, I used to eat Costco hot dogs 2-4 times a week, standard. Half the time, I'd show up with 16 dimes and 2 pennies.

The Costco Dogs are a great deal. I am talking about buying an entire pack of hotdogs for $.81 (1/2 of $1.62). To get them that cheap, you have to be buying some seriously low quality meat.
