9th Costco shopping in 2018 – $32.78 (today) / $308.48 (this year)

Happy Valentine’s Day.

I bought my usual greens for my everyday diet.

I bought roses for Valentine’s Day ($15.99 for a dozen). Costco continues to provide me convenient and economic life-style. The Roses were so cheap that I felt a little guilty.

8th Costco shopping in 2018 – $44.05 (today) / $275.7 (this year)

Nothing special today.

I put 2 CK shirts in the cart at first. Then I changed my mind and bought just one. They are slim fit. I favor tailored fit over slim fit. I find slim-fit shirts too young and hip. This skinny fit trend is likely to go away soon.

7th Costco shopping in 2018 – $28.15 (today) / $231.65 (this year)

What you don’t see is a take and bake pizza at the bottom. I am getting ready for Super Bowl 2018. I bought a bag of chips and salsa. Super Bowl is not the same without pizza, hot wings, chips, and salsa.

Go team~!!

I don’t even know who’s playing in Super Bowl.

As usual, I didn’t buy anything special today. Boring..

I took a passport photo today at Costco. I have no plan to leave the country. I always keep my passport current, just in case.

Costco Membership Fee Increased. Time to downgrade?

I didn’t know annual membership for Costco was increased in July 2017.

$120 plus tax is $131.40. In order for executive membership to pay for itself, you need to receive $65.70 on a 2% rebate check (make a qualifying purchase of $3,285.00)

4 years ago I spent $5,249.50 – My executive membership paid for itself and then some.
Last year I spent $2,929.00, and I just received a check for $58.58. This check doesn’t pay for my executive membership. In fact, I lost $7.12. I may have to downgrade my membership.

I spend less money at Costco now. I have everything I want (TV, clothes, Kitchenware..). I don’t have much more to buy at Costco except food items. It is interesting that I shop less at Costco now that I have more money.

3rd Costco shopping in 2018 – $13.12 (today) / $144.15 (this year)

It was a lunchtime Costco shopping.

I ate a hot dog first. Celery and spinach are for Vitamix juice. I bought my Vitamix blender 6 years ago. I still use it twice a day. Chicken BLT salad (2 pack) was for my lunch at work.

Sorry about low-quality pictures. I forgot to bring my camera to Costco.
