Vitamix 5200 How big is it?

Really interested in the vitamix5200 on amazon right now as a xmas gift. Is there any chance it would fit into this little appliance hideaway? It measures 17 high 12 deep 21 wide. Maybe with a smaller container than what it comes with? That ninja only fits if you take the lid off. The 5200 looks absolutely massive so I am a bit worried. Also does costco sell the 5200 in Canada? I am thinking wil...

My Car-Free Lifestyle - Chicago

Was inspired by a previous post about SWE in California and figured I'd give my own since many people who live in the burbs I know don't understand how I live without a car. I live in Chicago, work 1-2 days a week downtown. Like a large percentage of my neighborhood, nobody in my household owns a car. I take the train into work and it takes about 35ish minutes. During rush hour it comes every...

Chilaquiles Ingredient Question

This may be an odd question, but we are going to be in PV the next few weeks. We normally book all-inclusive resorts, but this time we have opted for an Airbnb. My favourite breakfast to have while in Mexico is chilaquiles verdes. I would like to buy the ingredients to make them myself in our Airbnb. I'm looking for recommendations on the best brands to look for when at the grocery store in PV. I ...

Scared of my Bike being stolen at Costco

I (18M) currently work for CDS within Costco and I take the bus there (1hr) and back home (1hr), and you can see that it takes a lot of time out of my day. I’m also going to college and I need as much of my time as I can get. I’m planning on buying a Trek bike. At first I wanted the $2k one but decided to get a $1k one instead so it will be less likely to be stolen. I’ve seen Costco employe...

So what was it?

What was it this year that caused the hobby to explode and transform into something so unrecognizable? It's a hobby that is now entirely inhospitable to the casual player or collector. We went from just last year being able to find Stellar Crown and Twilight Masquerade products just laying around to a near impossibility to find any product at all. Locals receive their supply and sell out within ...

Costco tempurpedic supreme hybrid vs pro adapt hybrid?

Looking for some input, I'm 47m, 5'5", ~248lbs and was about to pull the trigger on a tempurpedic pro adapt medium hybrid with a premium adjustable base (Denver mattress store brand) all in for around $5k, and then I saw the Costco tempurpedic supreme medium hybrid with an adjustable ergonomic base for around $2700. The Denver mattress base has lumbar support, the Costco base does not appear ...

Carls Jr across from Costco closing

Just heard the Carls Jr is following the same path as the KFC across the street from Costco on Stanford Ranch is closing on Dec 24th. Apparently the property owner has sold the entire property. Makes me wonder if there might be a future plan to tear those buildings down moving or closing the 76 gas station and redo the road alignments in the area(namely Five Star). Supposedly Willowrock Plaza be...

Struggling with folks continuously forcing interaction or touching my baby

My baby is now 7 months and this has been ongoing since she was a newborn. People, especially older ladies, will not leave us alone. It’s driving me crazy! I’ve had a grocery store employee ask me how my nipples are doing after starting breastfeeding and coughing right beside my three week old at the time, people stop me on walks to come lean into the bassinet when I’m trying to get her to s...

Costco Wrapping Up Tests

It appears the market testing with Costco is wrapping up. From the peak of around a 100 stores for 3 products, the count is dropping. The 34 oz Just Black ground coffee is still in 35 ish stores. The Energy Variety 18 pack is down to almost nothing along with the RTD Espresso Variety 12 pack. Hopefully the uptake was positive and we are working towards a larger supply agreement.

be careful with Porter & AC gift cards

Be careful with Air Canada and Porter gift cards (and possibly others sold by the same company). I purchased two $500 Porter gift cards in-store this past weekend. When we went to book a flight on Monday, the gift cards were invalid. We then called Porter customer service, and the card number was also invalid. I went back to Costco to complain. They initially told me the cards were non-refundab...

Tips for food budgeting

Sharing some of my tips but let’s hear yours. My approach: Monthly budget vs weekly if you can, I realize this is a luxury for some if they are paycheck to paycheck. Why? Because there are things that last more than a week and are cheaper in bulk. Rice, flour, peanut butter, sauces etc. you don’t use these up every week but having them on hand makes weekly shops much cheaper. So you may ha...
