I have never seen this kind of sales event at Costco before.
There is “More you buy, more you save” sales event on clothing items going on right now – until April 29, 2018.
25th Costco shopping in 2018 – $53.43 (today) / $1504.45 (this year)
What you don’t see is 2 Take and Bake Pizzas at the bottom of the cart. These are for air conditioner installation guys. There will be 4 people working in my house for 2 days. I will give them good food so they will do a good job. There will be donuts, cold water/soda, burgers, etc…
24th Costco shopping in 2018 – $255.93 (today) / $1451.02 (this year)
Nest is a smart home thermostat that can communicate with a smartphone. I am about to put in a new central air conditioner (3-ton unit) at my house. I will also replace the existing old heater and duct system. This is a huge purchase (mucho dinero). This is exciting. I am taking 2 days off from work to oversee the installation process.
I didn’t get my air conditioner from Costco. I didn’t consider Costco as a possibility because there is no such thing as Costco HVAC† Center. We have Costco Tire Center and Costco Optical Center. But, when it comes to HVAC†, we only have a third-party salesperson standing by the exit.
†HVAC – Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning
23rd Costco shopping in 2018 – $68.56 (today) / $1195.09 (this year)
I cannot use bleach on most of my white clothes. For example, most decent dress shirts, including Costco shirts, call for non-chlorine bleach. I’ve been seeing Oxi Clean commercials for many years. So, I finally decided to give Oxi Clean a chance. I hope this is the product I was looking for.
Energy shots are on sale. They were 0.56 for each shot. I often get very sleepy at work. $0.56 is super cheap, especially if you compare this to 5-hour Energy ($1.50 each when on sale).
What you don’t see is 40 packs of drinking water on the bottom of the basket.
22nd Costco shopping in 2018 – $22.24 (today) / $1126.53 (this year)
I am happy with my life. I don’t want to change anything. But I do realize my blog is boring. I will try to do something fun.
I cannot eat the whole Chicken in a day or two. So, to maximize my eating pleasure and to stretch my money, this is what I do.
I divide the bird, put them in small containers, and freeze them.
Power Green and Costco Chicken for lunch. I enjoy that salad a lot. I use a plastic fork so I don’t make clinking sounds at work.
21st Costco shopping in 2018 – $14.97 (today) / $1126.53 (this year)
I think I am done buying spinach at Costco. I’ve been having bad luck with Costco spinach too often. I would take these bags home and realize they are already getting old despite long expiration dates. It’s because It’s too dark at Costco produce room that I cannot visually decide if my bag of spinach is fresh or not. It is frustrating. They need some more light in the produce cave. I think I am done buying spinach at Costco. I will stay with Power Greens, or get spinach from Smart and Final (store in California), where the lighting is better.
I should take the bag outside of the produce cave and look at it again.
