So just went to Willingdon, have almost never been on a Friday night but figured it wouldn’t be too bad.. nope.. one of the worst times I’ve seen it outside of the holidays uhg.. still went in
Made a point to look at that pad behind the card scanner as per MG1, yep, it’s not just your membership picture but zoomed in entirely on your face so it takes up the whole screen lol… and pretty clear, so yea, good luck using someone else’s card lol.
Some casual racial slurs, a woman who wouldn’t stop commenting on the cake I was buying.. the biggest hoard of people I’ve ever seen waiting for glizzys.. won’t be doing fridays anymore lol

Coq College used to cater towards AzN international students back in the day. Once the bell rang around 3PM, the area around North Rd/Lougheed Mall looked straight out of HK.

In high school, I used to work at Lougheed Mall and it was mostly white and Korean. Rarely ever saw Indians in the area. Damn, I'm old.

Not sure why, but I bought this Danby freezer a couple days at at Costco here in Calgary and it was only $199... kind of a no brainer... but it's $299 on the Costco website. In-store does not have any discount or -$100 indicators anywhere on the signage. Weird. https://www.costco.ca/danby-7-cu-ft-...000067098.html
Even the brown lady at the cashier super said this is a really good price. I felt like I got highest score on an arcade game with a brown lady validating my purchase!

Online is always more expensive, you are basically paying $100 for shipping.
There's a class-action that someone submitted the other day saying that it was wrong that the site and the in-store prices were different. However, I don't see them winning, the site clearly states that the same product might be available in-store for a different price.

The site does say available in store, but I think that was added in the last year.

That freezer was 139 at a local Costco (forget which one) but the upright was $299. I thought to myself what a rip off, turn it sideways �� (joking).

spent 3 hours at costco today.... what a zoo!
something went wrong when getting my membership. long story short.
signed up, started shopping, got an email saying my account has been put on hold, went up to the membership area and they scanned my card and it says everything is fine on their end.
continued shopping then paid with no problem. got some $1.50 hotdogs and it was fine.
waited in line for like 10mins for some cheap gas and the membership wasnt working. got out of line, repark.
went back inside and waited in line for another 10mins. sorted everything out, ended up redoing everything with a new membership. went back to fill gas.
then i realized if they had to give me a new membership then i probably wouldnt get the 2% cash back on my $2000 purchase, repark.
went back inside and explained to them my concerns. ended up returning all the items and repurchasing it on the new card.

It’s cursed !!!!! The Costco gods are not pleased…
You didn’t buy any Kirkland clothing swag did you ? You cannot go to the church of Costco in your regular designer attire. You will occur the wrath of Kirkland. One must purify one self with 1.50 hotdogs and poutine first before shopping and ignore all the devils free samples

do you know what kind of a G you need to be to roll up in Costco (i assume on the island) with a X5M, proceed to buy 2k worth of shit and then RETURN IT, just to buy it all again to get the 2% executive membership savings (40 bucks yo)
THATS THE MOST CHINESE THING TO EVER CHINESE. AND IM CHINESE.

So how much are you guys spending at Costco annually? I did my 2024 finances using Lunch Money and it turned out I spent $10k last year ($2k was for my hearing aids). I had 4 trips that came in over $500 and another 8 there were over $300.

YoY spend is anywhere between $2000 - $2500, but I've observed my average spend is declining since 2021. Last year was about $1800 or so.
Scary how red kryptonite spent more than me in a day when it takes me a year to spend that much at Costco.
