I am still doing good with my fitness goal.

I’ve been running twice a week for 6 months now. I rarely skip my workout schedule. On Mondays & Wednesdays, as soon as I get home from work, I run a steep hill for 15 minutes. I do light workouts on Tuesdays & Thursdays.

Today I wore an Adidas shirt, Adidas shoes, and Adidas shorts. They are all from Costco.

I look absolutely adorable in these; I tells ya…

I paid $15 for the shirt at Costco. They sell these elsewhere for $30+. If you buy a few of these workout outfits, it will pay for your Costco membership.

* 33rd Costco Shopping this year, 1st time this month

Two things here:

  1. Chocolates of the World: I like these chocolates very much.
  2. Essenza Reeds (home fragrance): Costco spoils me. I used to buy Arm & Hammer air freshener spray once a year. Now I cannot live without these fancy smells around me. I must have 2 bottles opened at all times (in different rooms).


The purchased item also includes the doormat – Love that doormat ($13.99)

When it Doubt, Buy it – Plastic Food Wrap

When it doubts, buy it. Costco will not over-charge you.

Case in the study: Food Wrap by Kirkland Signature – $8.99 (double pack)

At first glance, you might think $9 for 2 rolls of food wraps is not much of a bargain. But look at this.

If you are lucky, you can buy a roll of food wrap for $.99 (from a 99-cent-only store). This roll contains a 100 SQ. FT. of inferior quality plastic wrap.

With Kirkland Signature’s Food Wrap (double pack), you get 1500 SQ. FT of high-quality plastic wrap. That’s 166 SQ FT per Dollar.

So, with the same amount of money, you get 66% more of a high-quality product.

But that’s not all
Think about helping the environment.
To get 1500 SQ. FT. of plastic wrap, you need 15 rolls of cheaper wraps. With Costco’s double pack, you save raw material to package 13 rolls.

Everyone wins with Costco.

So when in doubt? Buy at Costco.

Happy shopping.

I bought one more of those adorable Adidas shirts.

I am trying to buy a sofa. So, I need to make a room. In order to do that, I need to organize everything. The File organizer was what I needed to clean up my paper mess. 

One Costco chicken gives me 4 meals. I usually get sick of Costco chicken after finishing it.
