Costco Shopping – September 18, 2013
I went to Costco after work on Wednesday for some quick pickup.
And I found this nice comforter by Pacific Coast Feather Company (650 fill power).
$99.89 is a good price. This purchase may pay for your Costco membership.
I’ve been using 700 fill power comforter by Laura Ashley for 5 years. Last few months, I’ve been looking for another comforter with less fill power. After research, I decided Pacific Coast was the best bet. Then I found the exact comforter I was going to buy. I would have paid much more.
This comforter is better and lighter. My older comforter was too warm. I am very satisfied.
* NOTICE: It’s priced at $99.89. That $.89 means It’s a special deal. They may disappear quickly. Good luck.

I didn’t buy anything exciting. I mainly went to Costco to look at Christmas stuff. This Christmas season will be over before we know
I cannot get enough of these hot wings.
Honey Roasted Nut Mix looked interesting. They were good. I finished the whole can in a week.

Bought 2 doormats (World’s Best Outdoor Mat). They were really good so I bought 2 of them.
I also bought a jar of Costco Mixed Nuts and a gallon of Orange Juice.
After eating a hotdog and putting gas in the car, I went to Wal*mart, ROSS, and Smart and Final.
It happened on the morning of April 25.
As I put something in my backpack, I felt a sharp pain. My backpack cut my hand. This over 1-inch long cut drew blood.
I cut my hand as I pull my hand out. 4 months later, on August 25, I have a scar I don’t think will go away.
Inside the Ful backpack, there is a Velcro with a plastic label. I got cut on the corner of that label. I guess it’s a freak incident. I wonder how many other people had a similar experience.
Update 2021 – 8 years later, I still have a scar from that cut.
Harvest Wreath is being recalled.
I bought it last month, and I haven’t opened the package yet. I would like to keep it, but I don’t know anything about mold and how serious it is. So I shall bring it back.

Christmas time is here at Costco. I am happy and excited.
My new job is much less stressful, so I will have time to enjoy this holiday season. I will not spend a lot of money this year. There will be no Christmas tree. I am carefully saving money for next Christmas (2014). I plan to buy a car with whatever cash I saved.
Have fun. Don’t complain that it’s too early for Christmas. Don’t be that person who complains, but be the person who enjoys Christmas in August.
I bought one more coffee grinder. (picture below) One on the left is the new one. I need 4 coffee grinders for 4 coffee flavors I enjoy.
Peet’s Coffee made an appearance at my Costco warehouse. It’s Major Dickason’s Blend. This is one of my favorite coffees and much better than Starbucks Coffee. I like McDonald’s and Wendy’s coffee better than Starbucks Coffee. Starbucks Coffee is too acidic… bitter.
And I bought some snacks and quick dinner items.
* Update: A few days later at work, I visited my co-workers’ office. I had my coffee mug with me. I was sitting about 10 feet away from them (2 guys). We were talking about STD and pregnancy (guy talk). One of them interrupted our conversation and said, “Your coffee smells good.” “It’s Peet’s” I smiled.
Update 2021 – Pete’s coffee is my only coffee now. No more expensive coffee for me. And no more espresso. I drink flavored coffee sometimes.
