Went into Costco for a hundred bucks worth of school lunchbox items and nibble snacks (nuts, pretzels, dried fruits, jerky) and ended up spending four hundred.
:negative: :laugh:
First there was the collapsible moving trolley thingy for 35 bucks and I think 'I need that! For wheeling the esky, outdoor recliner, and fishing gear to the river, lake, or ocean'.
Then I made the mistake of walking by the cheese section then the manned seafood counter. The Chilean crabs were too good to pass up.
The little one was promised a small toy if she behaved the entire time so there was 15 bucks for a pair of battery powered monkeys that respond to being spoken to (really annoying purchase in hindsight).
They had Levi's chinos with custom size lengths (Aussie pants tend to be sold with the intention they'll be tailored) so a couple pairs of those for hubby.
Box of 60 granola bars here, 80 real fruit chews there, kilo of this nut or that nut, few extra bags of Kirkland jerky, and the 3 plus kilos of Goldfish. I had forgot about the Pepperidge Goldfish and begrudgingly grabbed a couple of boxes lest the family start a mass protest. The Goldfish are worshipped in this household. Never forget the Goldfish.
I'm glad I only go every few months. Did save 28 bucks in fuel though. It was so stinking hot that nobody was lining up to the pumps to get out and fill up. :thumbup:
Costco is crazy. I was there 2 days ago with my mom. I specifically go to Costco to buy webber's super sleep (melatonin herbal pill) I had to go cause I was running out...so I got that and a box of crab legs...then decided to bolt before I bought the entire store....told my mom I'm gonna go home, eat these crab legs then chew some sleep tabs and call it a day :roll:
I may go back tomorrow as work is oddly slow right now so I get to have tomorrow off (might as well) there is a plastic folding table at Costco I want to buy...I'm gonna go get it. I took my wooden heirloom table apart and put it away....I like the idea of open space...so the fold up table will be excellent for major craft days or event dinners and mini parties.
I know what you mean. Held off on buying a fancy clothes drying rack but may go back tomorrow for it. It has the buttoned dress shirt rack thing over the top and looked sturdier than most other ones on the market.
:crazy:

What, you don't believe he was out shopping with his hubby. Cynical bastard.
ac_wot
Edit: what is the point in calling someone an idiot without highlighting what is found to be a case of idiocy? Did Bricktop mean that I'm an idiot for spending more than I planned on? Maybe he hates Pepperidge Farm Goldfish?
Does he hate my new fishing-esky trolley?

Dunno what he's on about and his comment is neither constructive, clear, or warranted. Bad form.
You're a fucking idiot.
I'm not the one who has blurted it out twice for no apparent reason.
Yet you're still a fucking idiot.
Is there an echo in here lol?
That's just Bricktop's Tourette Syndrome. The guy is physically and mentally falling apart in his advanced years.
You're always welcome to check my condition for yourself if you visit Adelaide.

I'm not sleeping with you.
Oh, you'll be asleep, alright.

That's good, because Brick is not into guys.

Come to think of it, I cannot discern if you are a male or a female.

He's definitely a guy in real life, but his character here is female. I don't care one way or the other.

You're erroneous in your perception and I too don't care one way or another about that. :thumbup:

His name is Aaron and he's a mid to late forties bald, American living in Australia. He was invited here by a former poster. He pretends to be female to try and catfish Bricktop. The act is totally lame and stale as a month old loaf of bread. But, his flame board friends think it's clever. :crazy:

Nevermind the wild conspiracy theories of Bricktop's and IHJ's.
IHJ is still aggro at me for pointing out that there was nothing special to driving a train the one time I was given the opportunity to try it.
IHJ goes spazzo when I remind him that train drivers are just glorified bus drivers with training wheels (tracks).
There are a few around who have swallowed Bricktop's paranoia.
Azhya, I forgot to mention Aaron Dinky Freud is also a raging alcoholic. He gives Mel and Herman a run for their money.

Don't forget that I have antlers and I poop blueberry muffins.

A few, eh.
How about this, pickledick.
We run a poll. Simple question; "Do you believe Dinky Dianna is Freud". If the ayes have it, you leave for good. Permanently. Sayonara.
If the nays have I go.
You up for it?

No, you both stay.
Yes, ma'am.
If you say so.
Freud wouldn't throw his hat in anyway.

No arguments from me. Freud's troll used to bother, but now I don't give a shit. Like the Seoul brother says, look at the post, not the character behind it.
I could care less about his troll.
His constant craving for my attention gives me the creeps, though.

Joe craves our attention a lot more than DF.
And that's creepy too.

People have different reasons for posting..
I don't get trolling and flaming, but I know it appeals to some people.
