ACOT Message Board

I went today to just get pics printed.  (I love their photo processing!)As I waited, I spent $200.  Do you know they have edamame?  Of course I needed hot chocolate (heck, I live in Wisconsin!)...Evan loves Prgresso soup...they had Colavita olive oil...in less than 40 minutes, I had racked up quite a bill.  Sadly...it's time to make dinner, and I can't find a thing to make.

I can never get out of Sams club or Costco for less than $200.00 and that is not including film developing. I love that place.

Costco is the same way. Even Target and Walmart too.

I refer to Costco as the $300 store. 

we are just getting some Costco's in our area.  Luckily they are still too far away!

Yeah, I know.  My standing line used to be "I can't go there without spending $100....now, with inflation, it's $200!

I just saw the edamame for the first time about a month ago, isn't that cool!  It lasted forever too, it came with a lot.

For that kind of cash you could have gone out and had the full sushi dinner complete with the Edamame as an appetizer and not spent half that.That's why I'm a Walgreens girl.  I can get in and out with only the essentials.Laura

Walgreen's always feels too cluttered. I don't know why. But I like their pharmacy.

That's why I can't join.  I'd be terrible.  I'm like that at Target.  Too bad Target doesn't have a membership...it would help my spending a lot!

If Target had a membership I'd be a spokesperson. Seriously!

lol, Furry...my sil has a business membership that I slide in on....

I buy the edamame all the time. I eat that stuff like nobody's business!8 frozen packs for like $6.99. And I'm praying for a Costco or a BJ's to build here near Southpoint. I absolutely HATE giving my money to that comany!!!!

A Costco recently opened close enough to us so we bought a membership which will pay for itself just in milk.  I found the key to limit my spending.  No cart.  That way I only walk out with what the 2 boys and I can carry.  Tonight's trip was 10# of apples, a loaf of bread, 2 gal. of milk, and then $10 to top off my tank.  Under $30.

Heidi....SHOWOFF!

I was a Costco girl when I lived in So. Fla (my bff's brother works for them), but they are too far away for us up here.  So it's Sam's Club for us.  We went right before Thanksgiving, did a bunch of holiday shopping and ended up spending around $300! 

Me too Jaime, that would be so convenient!

...ah, yes.....but the trips there are spread apart....so it doesn't  "hurt" as bad!

Pthththth.  . . . But to be fair, maybe I should mention the times DH goes too . . . and he takes a cart
