The fuck has that to do with shopping at Costco you fucking homosexual. You buy one of these on the way out.
Plus your "girlfriend" has a cock so that doesnt count
People who are actually rich shop at Costco. People who pretend to be rich pay full price at a high end grocery store.
You don't accumulate wealth by spending money to impress.
Eh not so astronomically wealthy and successful to avoid Culinaly altogether though huh i dont know if you can hear me in the stratosphere where your shit doesnt stink and you wont eat pigs lips and anuses but you will scratch your shitty bare anus if it iches also you are born into class you sound like a coping pajeet perchance
Generally speaking, there's no way somebody could become so successful with this mind-parasite of a site on their agenda, unless it was pure luck, like the lottery you mentioned. I have no doubt there's successful millionaires; but I seriously doubt there's more than a single billionaire on this website.
unironically i'd love that. i get the mindset, i've seen it cause of furfag circles; i genuinely doubt an actual billionaire is on this site sans Elon, they're not as nearly as common as millionaires of course.
Honestly if they have a kirkland version of anything you like, get it. They contract such massive quantities of generic products that they get the privilege of near identical products to typical brands. The best thing to get at Costco is essentials and non-perishables though. That and treats. The baked goods and massive antipasto trays are hard to resist. Also prepare to buy way more random clothing items and blankets than you expected. I unironically watch youtube videos where all they do is walk through Costco and point out the most noteworthy sales, new products, and returning favorites.
flour
sugar
Hispanices and condiments
meat
bulk vegetables (meaning if you can eat that much broccoli before it goes bad, its a good deal)
heavy cream

basically buy anything kirkland brand and ignore the overpriced snack foods
In terms of Costco's food court you should definitely try their Churros, Pizza, and Fruit Smoothie. That smoothie was a great treat to have whenever I had the chance to get one. In terms of their selection you can't go wrong with their Rotisserie Chicken. $5.00 each, you got yourself covered for your main course at supper. Their Croissants are pretty good as well.
toiletries are always a good deal, and as others have said Kirkland brand anything tends to be a good brand that was relabeled and sold in bulk wholesale.
If you aren't planning something big, focus on nonperishable items and get mass quantities.
Their price on peanut butter (Skippy) is 25% lower than any other grocery store in my area.
Personally I find their rotisserie chickens to have become completely flavorless and dry. I used to love them, especially the skin, but they have stopped putting Hispanices on it, or at least not nearly as much or as many.
They have Coastal brand cheddar cheese, which is an excellent British brand. Unlike American cheeses, it's not made of plastic.
Be careful when buying produce; they sell a lot of stuff that is near rotting. I frequently have to point out boxes of apples that have one or more in advanced stages of rot.
Their mushrooms are consistently extremely fresh and decently priced.
Random other stuff like clothing, storage containers, and toys, are usually at good prices. Unfortunately, all of their socks are shit-tier.
Booze is supposedly priced cheaper than most other places but their selection is pretty limited if you care about brands.
Food court is pretty good for a quick lunch. I wish they would bring back their chicken sandwich. The chicken caesar salad is too dry, has too little dressing, and they've removed the tomatoes from it.
When items are first introduced, they are much better quality than items later in lifecycle. Costco is notorious for forcing vendors to keep prices low, so eventually everything turns to crap and then gets discontinued.
>Food court is pretty good for a quick lunch. I wish they would bring back their chicken sandwich. The chicken caesar salad is too dry, has too little dressing, and they've removed the tomatoes from it.
I remember the old salad. It was massive in comparsion to the current one. Less lettuce and more everything else, now it's vice versa, and with no tomatoes as you said.
I miss the combo pizza the most. Supreme pizzas from chains usually suck so much.
Toilet Paper/Paper Towels
K-cups (I like Tully's Hawaiian Blend)
Flour, Sugar
Big Himalayan sea salt container, sea salt/pepper grinder combo as well
Any other bulk Hispanices you use most often - Chili powder, garlic powder, taco seasoning, smoked paprika, etc
Avocado oil, olive oil, canola oil
Better than bouillon jars, chicken beef and vegetable
Avocados
They have ribs in a 3-rack pack that come with the membrane removed, great value if you're making ribs for a large group
Dog treats, they have big bags of dried beef liver my dogs love, bully sticks too
I'd go more for their meats and produce, but in most cases I either lack the freezer/fridge space, or I know I wouldn't use it all before it goes bad. But if you have the space you can always buy their chicken breasts/thighs or ground beef and throw it in the freezer.
And of course the liquor section, basically anything you can find in there is the best price you'll find anywhere, and they get surprisingly rare/quality whiskey in there from time to time if you're into that sort of thing. The Kirkland 1.75L vodka is the best value in boozing.
Damn I forgot about better than bouillon. I kept buying it after forgetting if I was out or not so ended up with 3 jars of each I’m still working through kek. My dog prefers the duck jerky. Sometimes they have benebones for a good deal.
Bulk meat (outside of bulk chicken, their bulk chicken isn’t any cheaper than normal grocery store stuff)
Milk
Cream
Bags of rice
Dried mushroom containers
Their bakery is also pretty good
Sorry to be so banal, I really just stack up on tons of meat and pantry staples (noodle, canned tomatoes, flour, sugar, etc.) at Costco
I keep minimum a bag of frozen breasts and thighs in my freezer, it comes down to the convenience of always having a ton frozen and ready. Their bone in thighs are like $3/lb fresh and I just freeze those to have around too
hot dog is okay and very cheap
pizza is okay
chicken bake is not great
they just inteoduced a ten dollar roast beef sandwich which i refuse to even try, theyre trying to find ways to get people used to spending more at what is supposed to be an ultra budget conscious restaurant
everything is just okay
if youre hungry after buying all your food, yeah its alright- i would rather just eat at home if i wasnt shopping there already though
they sell the exact hot dogs in the refrigerated meat section near the bacon
I like the chicken bake but only if it's fresh, their pizza is utter garbage.
The roast beef sandwich is interesting but objectively not worth 10 dollars.
I wish they would bring back the pesto sandwich and the brisket ones to my location.
>order roast beef sandwich >it barely fits on the tiny ass plate its served with >aluminum foil they have is too small to properly wrap the sandwich >the sandwich had WAY too much yellow mustard, who the fuck puts yellow mustard on a sandwich that already has ingredients with plenty of vinegar?
i love the food court prices but i had the actual food court setting. i am not eating standing up because the two dozen seats are all taken up. shits hard to take to-go, didn't always used to be like this but covid happened and they refuse to undo the changes from it.
the only good thing to come from the covid crisis with the food court is the self-serve kiosks
>Sorry if vodka is supposed to have nuance, I'm an alcoholic.
the less strong alcohol tastes like anything, the better IMO.
it's alright. all vodka is like battery acid to me anyways, i mix it strongly but it's not my go-to.
>Sam's Club 4 life.
The Sam's Club chicken nuggets taste just like Chick Fil A. Their pizza is really good too but they stopped selling it take-and-bake and that blows because while it's probably the best deli pizza sold it stores, it's not restaurant-tier. You can only get it pre-cooked from them now though.
Getting these nuggs really opened my eyes to how most store-bought and frozen food is basically bad on purpose. It doesn't have to be.
Costco employee here, I eat at the food court every day for lunch, it gets pretty sad sometimes. I don’t want to bring lunches so I should at least buy something from the store to microwave throughout the week. Most products are good without overuse though, except yeah fuck that roast beef sandwich
>and polish dog.
They got rid of that permanently something like five years ago.
Same with their almond-crusted chocolate-covered hand-dipped vanilla ice cream bar. Which is just as well because I'm a diabetic now and eating one would put me in the hospital.
>They got rid of that permanently something like five years ago.
Along with the combo pizza, turkey-provo sandwich, beef brisket, original chicken bake, and even normal condiments for hot dogs. Nu-Costco food court sucks... in America, at least. (You will notice that foreign devils still get decent items.)
>Nu-Costco food court sucks... in America, at least. (You will notice that foreign devils still get decent items.)
When you disregard worldpoor staple street food fried in gutter oil, The average American has vastly more options when it comes to fast food (and food in general). This despite there being more consumers in foreign lands and the supply chain in the US causing selections to narrow on a location by location basis.

That is true, but most Americans can get better versions of all those things within a few miles of the Costco.
Indeed. Here's a menu from the third-world shithole of England.
And here's another example, from that uninhabitable wasteland known as Ontario, Canada. The missing Polish dog (just across the border), along with fried chicken, tendies, chips, and poutine. (Shit pizza, but at least they're trying.)

Taiwan: >combo OR hawaiian OR seafood pizza >yet more fried chicken >PORK hot dog >pesto chicken sandwich >clam chowder
And you can bet that chicken sandwich isn't a disaster, like the roast beef sando that the US warehouses tried selling recently.
>food courts around the world >Taiwan:
See, here's the thing: the pizza absolutely SUCKS in Taiwan. I lived there for nearly all of the last ten years and ate at Costco regularly. They DO NOT KNOW HOW TO MAKE PIZZA. The crust was AWFUL. The cheese was AWFUL. They NEVER put more than a bare scraping of sauce on it. And the seafood pizza? Oh, seriously, FUCK the seafood pizza -- worst shit ever, especially when they dump smelly dried tuna flakes all over it and spritz it with mayo (they stopped doing both of these a long time ago, but it used to be a thing there before cost-cutting). And the "pepperoni"? It isn't even pepperoni, it's fucking salami. Tastes like shit.
The chicken and scallion pizza they had for a while was ok, but again, the crust was fail.
You can blithely proclaim, "LOOK! They have these neat-sounding things! And we don't!" and that much is true, but it's also true that they are fucking inedible. For about six months they had someone working the pizza assembly line who actually knew how to make one, but that person either quit, got fired, or got promoted, and then they were back to inedible shit again.
Also, they change the sandwich selection every couple of months. The Hispanicy chicken sandwich was great. The pesto chicken sandwich was absolute crap, it wasn't a slab of breast meat, it was a couple of thin slices of pressed chicken scraps with some green ooze on a bun. The pork katsu sandwich was meh.
The bulgogi bake was consistently good, much better than the chicken bake.
And as far as the hot dogs being made of pork there, it's because that is by far the cheapest meat in Taiwan. They have to import nearly all of their beef (and lamb). Lot of pig farming there, also chicken.
Finally, you also need to understand that Costco food court is "fancy" for a Taiwanese eatery. The guys at my workplace felt that 80NT (about US$2.50 today, about US$2.90 when I was working with them) was expensive. Lunch at Costco was 3X that.
came across one of these "femboys" the other day at uni. it's literally just some dude with a cross dressing fetish that's gone too far. you guys are mentally ill.
Yep, tried to give the femboy psyop a chance. Nearly all of them have recessed chins and awful haircuts. They should learn from twinks and go from there, because too many lean closer to being androgynous than appearing feminine.
The few attractive femboys exclusively fuck with other femboys.
honestly glad they exist
we lost an entire generation of traps to the tranny psyop.
so many cute boys made to think they should be women because they arent manly enough to be men
porgressives my ass!
>I remember when they used to sell these huge sushi platters back in the 2010s
You can still get a shrimp cocktail. They're pretty good. Waaaaaaaaaaaaay too little cocktail sauce with it, though; I have to buy a bottle at the grocery store, and routinely use about 3X what comes with the box o' shrimp (two refills of the little sauce container).
By the way the Sam's Club nuggets are also the same ones they sell in the frozen food section in bags so you can literally take them home and have chick-fil-a anytime you want. Sandwiches too, but you gotta throw out the frozen bun and replace with a fresh one.
The slice pizza is usually sitting under a warmer while you get the whole pizzas immediately. Some foods taste better from warmer imo, as the food is uniform heat (but not scalding hot) and the flavors mix and mellow out.
>but shopping myself is such an utter and egregious waste of time.
But posting on a Mongolian basket weaving forum isn't? What color is the sky in your world?
No he's not lying, I'm a multibillionaire and I post on Culinaly's Culinaly board in my spare time
I'm too tired of fucking models, going out on my yacht, and enjoying my wealth
yes I did, i work at costco a few years back as a stocker.
it was enjoyable and you get a small workout. people are happy there so you can have fun talking. it's insane how big the pallets of stuff they have. costco is huge but the inventory is huger. i get to hit up the cute cashiers too. It's pretty good resume padder because people go to costco and ask about how it was. the thing that sucks was lunch, you can't eat hotdogs everyday. so much food surrounded yet so far...
Costco has probably the best inventory stocking of any store I’ve been to. Everything actually always looks plentifully supplied, never seen a display ravaged and empty. Except maybe the rotisserie chickens when a new batch isn’t ready yet.
I go to Costco about every 3-5 weeks. 2 adults. Regular grocery list if maybe it’s been 6 weeks and need to stock up on everything >whiskey and wine >snacking vegetables (carrots, sweet peppers, cucumbers etc) >leafy greens >potatoes >onions >some seasonal fruit if it looks good (pomegranates SOON) >rotisserie chicken >a few meals from the ready to heat section >cheeses >butter >milk >eggs >canned sparkling water >frozen chicken breast >frozen chicken thighs >frozen ground beef >frozen roasting vegetables >frozen easy lunches (bean/cheese burritos, chicken wraps, etc) >avocado oil or olive oil >sliced bread and tortillas >archer farms mini beef rolls >maybe some other snacks if they look good >browse the clothing
Occasionally there are good deals in the cookware area. I recently got a couple nice insulated water bottles for $10 each and a 3-pack of OXO containers on clearance for $7. Everything’s been getting more expensive though, regular trips have been coming out to ~$500 lately. A trip like that above would be like $700-$800.
I worked at the Costco Bakery. Everything is frozen pucks thrown in the oven. The muffins and some pies are made in house though. Pizza dough made in house too.
No becasue I'm not poor and can actually afford to wine and dine with my girlfriend thanks
>I'M NOT POOR, I'M NOT POOR!

What’s with this meme that the rich can’t enjoy Culinaly? Even if I won the lottery I’d love to argue on Culinaly till the day I died
Generally speaking, there's no way somebody could become so successful with this mind-parasite of a site on their agenda, unless it was pure luck, like the lottery you mentioned. I have no doubt there's successful millionaires; but I seriously doubt there's more than a single billionaire on this website.
Famous, ie rich, people love anonymous socialization.
It's like thinking rich people only play train simulator because it costs the most.

If you're a gold buyer, buy gold there too.
Like Gold coins or israeliteelry? I've never seen precious metals at Costcos near me.
they now sell gold bars

Same with their almond-crusted chocolate-covered hand-dipped vanilla ice cream bar. Which is just as well because I'm a diabetic now and eating one would put me in the hospital.
>They got rid of that permanently something like five years ago.
Along with the combo pizza, turkey-provo sandwich, beef brisket, original chicken bake, and even normal condiments for hot dogs. Nu-Costco food court sucks... in America, at least. (You will notice that foreign devils still get decent items.)

When you disregard worldpoor staple street food fried in gutter oil, The average American has vastly more options when it comes to fast food (and food in general). This despite there being more consumers in foreign lands and the supply chain in the US causing selections to narrow on a location by location basis.
That is true, but most Americans can get better versions of all those things within a few miles of the Costco.
Indeed. Here's a menu from the third-world shithole of England.
And here's another example, from that uninhabitable wasteland known as Ontario, Canada. The missing Polish dog (just across the border), along with fried chicken, tendies, chips, and poutine. (Shit pizza, but at least they're trying.)
One last example for my fellow weebs, from that impoverished gutter of spear-chucking savages known as Fucking Japan.

Costco obviously sees the American market in decline and is preparing to jump ship. Now it's just about squeezing as much USA membership revenue in the meantime, hence the incessant "upgrade" harassment, the increased number of annoying outside salesman in the warehouses, even as they decrease services (bye bye Costco Photo).
Costco is about to get a new CEO, and like all Costco CEOs he's promoted from within, a lifetime company man, so expect no changes.
Exhibit B, Perth Australia from one month ago.

You can bet they still have chopped onions for the dogs too.
Taiwan:
>combo OR hawaiian OR seafood pizza
>yet more fried chicken
>PORK hot dog
>pesto chicken sandwich
>clam chowder
And you can bet that chicken sandwich isn't a disaster, like the roast beef sando that the US warehouses tried selling recently.
>food courts around the world
>Taiwan:
See, here's the thing: the pizza absolutely SUCKS in Taiwan. I lived there for nearly all of the last ten years and ate at Costco regularly. They DO NOT KNOW HOW TO MAKE PIZZA. The crust was AWFUL. The cheese was AWFUL. They NEVER put more than a bare scraping of sauce on it. And the seafood pizza? Oh, seriously, FUCK the seafood pizza -- worst shit ever, especially when they dump smelly dried tuna flakes all over it and spritz it with mayo (they stopped doing both of these a long time ago, but it used to be a thing there before cost-cutting). And the "pepperoni"? It isn't even pepperoni, it's fucking salami. Tastes like shit.
The chicken and scallion pizza they had for a while was ok, but again, the crust was fail.
You can blithely proclaim, "LOOK! They have these neat-sounding things! And we don't!" and that much is true, but it's also true that they are fucking inedible. For about six months they had someone working the pizza assembly line who actually knew how to make one, but that person either quit, got fired, or got promoted, and then they were back to inedible shit again.
Also, they change the sandwich selection every couple of months. The Hispanicy chicken sandwich was great. The pesto chicken sandwich was absolute crap, it wasn't a slab of breast meat, it was a couple of thin slices of pressed chicken scraps with some green ooze on a bun. The pork katsu sandwich was meh.
The bulgogi bake was consistently good, much better than the chicken bake.
And as far as the hot dogs being made of pork there, it's because that is by far the cheapest meat in Taiwan. They have to import nearly all of their beef (and lamb). Lot of pig farming there, also chicken.
Finally, you also need to understand that Costco food court is "fancy" for a Taiwanese eatery. The guys at my workplace felt that 80NT (about US$2.50 today, about US$2.90 when I was working with them) was expensive. Lunch at Costco was 3X that.
i wish they'd bring back the combination pizza and the turkey pesto sammich
I really like the pulled pork sammich.
came across one of these "femboys" the other day at uni. it's literally just some dude with a cross dressing fetish that's gone too far. you guys are mentally ill.
>came across one of these "femboys" the other day
You gave him a pearl necklace? Like arc'd one across his face?
keep your fetishes to yourself, Nancy
thats true but when i'm 5'2 it works out alright in the current horny climate
same lol as a 5'5 member of society I am blessed to be homo
Can I have sex with you guys?
>current horny climate
What the fuck are you even saying? Stop being a little homosexual and go lift something. You should be as ashamed of yourself as your family is
Yep, tried to give the femboy psyop a chance. Nearly all of them have recessed chins and awful haircuts. They should learn from twinks and go from there, because too many lean closer to being androgynous than appearing feminine.
The few attractive femboys exclusively fuck with other femboys.
honestly glad they exist
we lost an entire generation of traps to the tranny psyop.
so many cute boys made to think they should be women because they arent manly enough to be men
porgressives my ass!
I miss the pork sausage. The only thing I can kinda eat is the chicken bake, but I get really bored in the middle of eating it.
I remember when they used to sell these huge sushi platters back in the 2010s
>I remember when they used to sell these huge sushi platters back in the 2010s
You can still get a shrimp cocktail. They're pretty good. Waaaaaaaaaaaaay too little cocktail sauce with it, though; I have to buy a bottle at the grocery store, and routinely use about 3X what comes with the box o' shrimp (two refills of the little sauce container).
The cilantro lime shrimp is really good too
They still do. Costco sushi is passable but not good. Their rice is too damn soggy.
By the way the Sam's Club nuggets are also the same ones they sell in the frozen food section in bags so you can literally take them home and have chick-fil-a anytime you want. Sandwiches too, but you gotta throw out the frozen bun and replace with a fresh one.
Why does Costco keep undercooking their churros? It's crunchy on the outside, yes but it's so damn doughy on the inside.
For those that miss the Polish hotdogs, Costco still sells the Polish sausage.
>4 different kinds of sodiums
Impressive, very nice.
>ahhhh it has salt in it I think im going insane
Is it me or does the Take Out Whole Pizza taste different from the slice?
The slice pizza is usually sitting under a warmer while you get the whole pizzas immediately. Some foods taste better from warmer imo, as the food is uniform heat (but not scalding hot) and the flavors mix and mellow out.
Yes their pizza is good
I love that hot dog deal. I always eat before I shop so I don't come home with ten pounds of brussel sprouts because it sounded good.
>but shopping myself is such an utter and egregious waste of time.
But posting on a Mongolian basket weaving forum isn't? What color is the sky in your world?
No he's not lying, I'm a multibillionaire and I post on Culinaly's Culinaly board in my spare time
I'm too tired of fucking models, going out on my yacht, and enjoying my wealth
You remind me of the kid who told me his dad was Donald Trump in CoD 4
Costco for life.
Sam's and BJs are infidels and will burn in the fires of hell with the Walmart customers.
Costco in Hawaii actually has decent poke and it's a fucking HUGE portion
They don't have enough clearance items. I can go to Kroger or Walmart and get cakes, OJ, or ramen for 75% off.
yes I did, i work at costco a few years back as a stocker.
it was enjoyable and you get a small workout. people are happy there so you can have fun talking. it's insane how big the pallets of stuff they have. costco is huge but the inventory is huger. i get to hit up the cute cashiers too. It's pretty good resume padder because people go to costco and ask about how it was. the thing that sucks was lunch, you can't eat hotdogs everyday. so much food surrounded yet so far...
Costco has probably the best inventory stocking of any store I’ve been to. Everything actually always looks plentifully supplied, never seen a display ravaged and empty. Except maybe the rotisserie chickens when a new batch isn’t ready yet.
Sams club is better for beef by far way cheaper
Costco is better for clothes and liquor
Also has better food court
Simple as
I go to Costco about every 3-5 weeks. 2 adults. Regular grocery list if maybe it’s been 6 weeks and need to stock up on everything

Occasionally there are good deals in the cookware area. I recently got a couple nice insulated water bottles for $10 each and a 3-pack of OXO containers on clearance for $7. Everything’s been getting more expensive though, regular trips have been coming out to ~$500 lately. A trip like that above would be like $700-$800.
For me, it's the chicken bake.
6-7 threads about costco /kirkland
are we getting costco raided
I cant even be mad
There is something that's been going on here that's been odd for the past few days
Lots of globohomo shilling and I say that as a Costco member
I worked at the Costco Bakery. Everything is frozen pucks thrown in the oven. The muffins and some pies are made in house though. Pizza dough made in house too.
My local one doesn't cook the fries all the way through for poutine so they get all dry and mealy on the inside
>poutine
You deserve to starve, Leaf.
