Some people are never satisfied.
Just drop a little cayenne or Aleppo pepper on it. Heat's easy. It's flavor that counts.

Amen.
The difference between a Cajun cook and a wannabe? Heat.
True Cajun food is seasoned, not spicy.

They did not have beers but I saw probably 5-6 different hard liquor drinks (whiskeys, etc) had their little sample station set up.
(PS Not sure if you could go back for seconds, but maybe if you rotated through all the 5-6, they would forget you by the time you got back to the first one. 555)

I am always glad I went after I go, but I don't like the process of going through the place. It's just a stressful place. The parking difficulties, walking distance to the entrance, the membership card check, the crowds, trying to find that one thing you thought they had last time but now they don't seem to have it, the complicated checkouts, and the cart check at the exit. HEB is so much more peaceful.

Costco is good when you have to buy lots of disposable diapers for babies/toddlers. Toddlers like to play with those bigger diaper boxes too. (In a pinch, you can put a baby in the diaper box too so the baby won't roll too far from where you left the baby. But you can do that with the bigger Amazon boxes too.)
Gasoline is also cheaper at Costco.
Some popular electrics, when you don't need the newest version and don't need to customize, are usually cheaper at Costco.

I saw a link (clickbait) saying that although it's cheaper at Costco, gas stations nearby are probably within a penny or two. Filling up a 15 gallon tank might cost as much as 30¢ more, but you won't spend as much time in line.

You need to stop storing your babies on hills. Babies should be stored on flat ground, it's standard practice.
Education is extremely important.

Between Kroger and Meijer rewards, I always get $1 off per gallon when I fill up. Costco can't beat that.
Retailers around here have adjusted their prices and offerings to compete with Costco. I used to buy berries - I eat a lot of them - at Costco. Now they're cheaper elsewhere.
-
With 2.5 of us here and no extra freezer I donât think it would be worth it. The only non-perishables Iâd buy in bulk are paper products, and you can do ok waiting for the sales at stop and shop and stocking up then.
Only non-witches get due process.

You overlooked the fact that babies can rollover on their own when rested on flat ground.

I used to use Cholula then I discovered Yucatan Sunshine.
I think itâs the carrots that sets it apart.

Weâve dialed it in over the years - we only buy a specific set of items now: eggs, milk, oil, TP, coffee, Parmesan cheese, etc.
90% of our basket is the same stuff. Weâve learned what we consistently use and what piles up in the pantry. We donât experiment there anymore.

Tried it this morning, yes it's a level above the other stuff. Just enough heat (not much, but enough) and a bit better flavor.

A freezer is your friend. Allows you to stock up on loss leaders or a place to store the MIL until disposal.
