I am obsessed with watermelons. I want good watermelons, but I don’t know how to pick them. This watermelon from Costco was not very tasty. So, went online and studied how to find good watermelons. The next day I went to a local market and bought another watermelon. That one was good, but not super-fantastic.

Instant Vietnamese Pho was on sale so I gave it a try. They are very good. It goes nicely with sriracha sauce.

José’s Gourmet Coffee was having a roadshow at my warehouse. This was perfect timing. I picked up 3 bags of Christmas flavors. I will give one bag to a friend. The smell of this coffee makes the holiday season more festive, and it makes me feel cozy when it’s cold or raining outside.

I use three different soaps. They are; 1) Fancy boutique soap for handwashing, 2) moisturizing soap (Dove) for the shower, and 3) squeaky clean soap (Irish Spring), also for the shower.

In the shower, I use two different soaps on different parts of my body. For example, I want moisturizing soap on my body, but I want dry soap on my armpits and face.

Irish Spring is my go-to squeaky clean soap. Costco always puts these soaps on sale from time to time. So, I always buy Irish Spring with extra savings at Costco.

I knew nothing about Pecorino Romano Cheese. I thought I can cut it up and snack it. But, DANG, this cheese is salty. I mean it’s very salty, that it cannot be good for my blood pressure. My tongue is still burning from the cheese. Afterward, I went online and learned that Pecorino Romano Cheese is supposed to grate over pasta and such. I have so much to learn.

Tuxedo mousse cups and creme brulee are for my neighborhood block party. These are guaranteed good times. I know my neighbors will love these.

Turkey Jerky is a treat to myself for this weekend.

I will probably trash some cherries because I cannot eat them all. I no longer feel guilty about throwing away food. I pay tax and put my best efforts to cut down on waste. That’s all I can do.

** I trashed the cherries a few days later. They were not very good.

Check out Hot Buys deals at Costco.com. This sales event started today (July 29), and it’s good thru either August 4 or August 6th. The sale lasts for only 7 to 9 days.

There are only 27 items on sale. But there are some good stuff on sale, such as Kirkland Signature beef hot dogs ($3) and shampoos ($3). Costco shampoos are a super good deal as is, but with $3 off, I will try to buy the maximum allowed 2 bottles. Check out the sales here.

It says Digital Membership Card is available on the Costco app. https://www.costco.com/costco-app.html

I followed the procedure step by step, but I couldn’t get it to work. I don’t know how to verify my membership. I logged in, but it doesn’t verify my membership. I gave up after a little try. I shall try again in a month or two.

Let me know if you got it to work.

21st Costco shopping in 2019 – $33.46 (today) / $1391.38 (this year)

I always buy Birds Eye’s Garlic Chicken ( 58 oz. #32919) when they are on sale. It’s a quick and tasty meal that doesn’t require side dishes. Naples Kitchen’s Hawaiian Style Chicken ( 48 oz. #37447) requires some planning. I will be eating BBQ ribs and some hot dogs on Memorial Day.

*Earlier today, 2 of my co-workers and I went to Costco for hot dogs. Feeling generous, I told them it was going to be my treat. I thought they would get pizza, hot dogs, maybe both. A female coworker was tiny, too. Anyway, Mofos ordered 2 Acai Bowls, 2 Pizzas, and 2 Drinks. I was out $18. I ate a hot dog.

18th Costco shopping in 2019 – $36.30 (today) / $1297.47 (this year)

Sunday morning Costco Shopping is special to me. It gives me different feelings compared to my usual Costco shopping at night after a full day of work. For Sunday morning I set the alarm, get up, and get ready just for Costco shopping. I feel positive and motivated when I’m out early Sunday morning. It’s interesting to see the world at this time of the week.

I started a load of white laundry before hitting the road.

I came home and started my usual Sunday morning routine. My coffee came out perfect. I ironed a few shirts as I enjoyed a cup. It’s a glorious Sunday morning.
