Valentine’s Day came early for me this year. It’s January 20.
PS. I know, I should put away my Christmas decorations.
Update 2021 – I cannot remember who gave me that early Valentine’s Day gift, and why it was given to me in January.

A female friend of mine wanted to experience my shopping routine. So, I took her shopping to Costco, Wal*Mart, ROSS, Target, and Del Taco (my usual routine). We ate Costco Hot Dogs. We were done shopping around 10:30 pm.
I used my executive member 2% rebate check and received $66.83 cashback.

If I had the money, I would replace all my T-shirts, about 30 of them, with these Kirkland Signature’s Pima Cotton T-Shirts.
I look exactly the same every day at work. Simply put, I don’t care how I look at work. I wear 1 size larger pair of pants to work (for comfort). I wear Costco’s black T-shirt every day. My black T-shirts have better quality than most cheap T-shirts people wear. But, in fact, my shirts are undershirts.
###
I always keep 10-20 cans of Healthy Choice Chicken Soups. I use them to fight cold (flu). I believe in the power of chicken soup. I believe chicken soup works better than any cold medication. I ate several cans of these soups last week to fight the flu. And I needed a refill. There were $3 instant savings on them.
* When I’m at work, I wear 31-inch waist pants. When I go out for Costco shopping, I change into a pair of 30-inch waist pants. My female friend made a comment that I am wearing tight pants to Costco.
Update 2021 – I never wear a t-shirt to work. I only wear an imported dress shirt, often with cuff-links. I don’t keep chicken soup at home, but I make chicken stock in the freezer. When I catch a cold, I buy make chicken soup from scratch.


I received my annual Costco 2% executive membership reward check, amount of $96.36. Costco’s executive membership is $110/yr. So, I pay $55/yr more than a regular membership.
With a $96.36 check, my executive membership pays for itself and it pays $46.36 extra. That’s not all. I have Costco/American Express membership. I will receive about $160.00 cashback from AmericanExpress as well.
And I live alone, AND I don’t shop a lot. If you have a big family, then your check must be huge.
This means I spent at least $4818.00 in Costco last year. That seems a lot.

A happy new year for everyone. I can’t believe my favorite time of the year has come and went already. I’ll have to wait 7 months ’til I see the first sign of Christmas at Costco.
I didn’t buy anything special today.
Bona – this is a wood floor cleaner.
AA Batteries have an expiration date of 2022.
Then I have my first Costco hotdog of the year. It was a good time.
I hope 2013 will go by slowly. Time fly too fast for me.
Happy new year again. I will keep in touch.




They are here… Happy New Year.
