* Today’s Costco shopping: 20th time this year, 1st time this month

I am extremely busy. I had three wedding photography jobs last month. Taking pictures is the easy part. Now I have to look at every single image and package them to deliver. My apartment is a total mess. 

I bought Kirkland Signature coffee instead of Starbucks coffee. Maybe I will grow to like this coffee if I have to. But Starbucks is definitely better.

* Today’s Costco shopping: 17th time this year, 4th time this month

I went to Costco for some apples.

It was getting late. I looked at my coupon wallet and found a coupon for El Pollo Loco. Below dinner was only $2.99. It’s hard not to eat out when a meal is so easy, fast, and cheap.

* Today’s Costco shopping: 16th time this year, 3rd time this month

I bought a pair of Adidas running shoes from Costco. I needed those shoes to replace my 5 years old gym shoes.

They were only $28.99/pair. They are very light and designed for running.

* Today’s Costco shopping: 15th time this year, 2nd time this month

Ah~~  So busy. It’s the last night to file income tax.

I bought a pair of Adidas shoes. It was my first time seeing Adidas shoes at Costco.

I bought a swimming trunk. But, I haven’t swum in 10 years. Maybe I will need it on a vacation.

I have money and time for a vacation. I have 4 weeks of vacation time. My accounting lady’s been telling me to take a vacation for over 1 year now. The thing is that I don’t need a vacation. I am pretty relaxed and happy at work. There is no stress. If I meet the right friend, I shall enjoy traveling. But I am alone for now… I’m happy without a vacation.

Kirkland Signature’s AAA batteries are the best. I brought a $2.00 off coupon for Duracell batteries, but Kirkland Signature’s batteries were a lot better deal without a coupon.

I spent $120.00. I saved $18.00 with coupons. Then I put 12.65 gallons of gas for $27.82 ($2.199/g)

Costco Cereals
50/50 mix of Honey Bunches of Oats & Kirkland Signature Organic Raisin Bran with Soy Milk. This is my favorite combination so far.

Nothing Special today.

I have a long Costco shopping list for next week (with the coupons). Today, I just needed some basic stuff fast.

I bought 3 more shirts ($45.00). I just need a few more shirts. I need a few more pairs of dark pants for work.

Costco Chicken:
I love Costco chicken. But, when you live alone, you are the only person eating that bird. That means I will eat nothing but Costco chicken for the next 2-3 days. I am not sure if I can finish the whole thing this time.  

Below is a reshoot of the shirts under better light, with correct color balance

The coupon book is out. Check your mailbox.

I see a lot of good stuff. I may have to spend a lot of money next week.

My shopping list from this coupon:

  • Candies (I am debating which one to get)
  • Trash bags
  • Ritz crackers
  • Hebrew National Kosher Beef Franks
  • Orange chicken
  • Healthy Choice Cafe Steamers Variety Pack
  • Valley Fine Foods Pasta Prima Chicken & Mozzarella Ravioli
  • Apache 3’x5′ Commercial Grade Scraper Mat
  • Kirkland Signature Chicken Alfredo with Penne Pasta
  • Vitamin B-12 (Good timing – I was running out of them) 

* I am looking at this tiny Olympus Camera (FE-370) for $99.99 after $30.00 off. I don’t need this camera, but this camera is very cute.

I eat 1 1/2 slices of bread for breakfast.

1 slice is too little.  2 slices are too much.

So, I make a sandwich with 1.5 slices of bread & 3 slices of ham.
When I told my friends about it, they seemed puzzled about how I distribute & stack 1.5 pieces of bread in one sandwich.

It’s very simple. I do it like this.
