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.

Be happy for me. I used a dishwasher for the first time in my life. OMG, my dishes were so hot. I didn’t know they get this hot. It was steaming inside…. with steam!

I ordered a Maytag dishwasher on February 28, 2019, from Costco at a crazy low price of $569.99. Costco’s $200 discount was a real deal. This exact model was/is being sold for $760 and up. This purchase paid for my executive Costco membership for a few years. I had to wait 7 weeks for delivery. Costco gave me a number of chances to cancel my order or get an alternate unit. But I waited for the dishwasher that I originally set my heart on. I finally got it delivered on Wednesday, April 17, 2019.

I had absolutely no problem with the delivery company, BJ Hunt. I don’t understand such low customer ratings that I see online. I got my house ready for them. I unhooked the old dishwasher and emptied space below the kitchen sink before they arrived at my house. They were in and out in about 30 minutes (maybe less).

My dishwasher is beautiful.

Anyway… that’s a good-looking dishwasher. It’s a satisfying feeling.

My boss was working from home today, so I took a long lunch and went Costco shopping. The hot dog was extra yummy because I was on the clock. 🙂

I’ve been enjoying Hoody’s unsalted roasted peanuts lately. Maybe there is a right season for them? I don’t know. But sometimes these peanuts are not very good. But lately, they are amazingly good. They are meaty and tasty.

10th Costco shopping in 2019 – $10.94 (today) / $1011.22 (this year)

Costco coupon was about to expire. I wanted to buy dishwasher detergent while it was still on sale. So, I made a quick stop at Costco on my lunchtime – then I saw Kirkland Signature dishwasher detergent at a better deal, with no discount. Naturally, I bought the Kirkland Signature brand.

With this, I pay less than 10 Cents on detergent every wash. That’s not bad.

9th Costco shopping in 2019 – $611.32 (today) / $1000.28 (this year)

** Purchase like this pays for Costco membership and more.

I am finally getting a dishwasher. To me, this is a life-changing event.

When I bought my house 7 years ago, the house came with a broken dishwasher. I never felt the need for a dishwasher. ‘Dishwashers are for rich people,’ I thought.

I had a similar notion about gardening services. I thought any man with an able body should mow his own lawn and save hundreds of dollars. It took me a year to change my mind. Now I cannot imagine my life without a gardener.

Costco had a $200 discount on Maytag dishwashers. I thought It was the right time for me.

The order process was different than the time I ordered my refrigerator. It currently says “order received” – and I am waiting for some kind of communication from the delivery company.

Update: 2 business days later, I received an email from Costco informing me to expect an email from a delivery service. I would schedule for delivery then, it says.
