Yep you read correctly my connoisseurs of everything organic and high end. Costco is the place I'll be..well not me but someone will spread my ashes. I have been there twice and after realizing that it is this what 'Pricemart' copied I understand why. The place is epic.
First it has two levels. Not one but TWO huge ass levels.
Second, and this a comparative level, things are relatively inexpensive. Yes yes I understand the whole bulk buying drives costs of certain items down but I am looking at the simple math of it all with respect to what I have experienced at home. The best sample of that is the price of honey. At home honey comes in a 275 ml glass bottle and at $110 TTD ($20 USD) no wonder the grocery stores put anti-theft devices on them. Now at Costco..for 3 lbs of clover honey (ok not the greatest) $7 USD ($42-45 TTD). There are other examples as well but they are really to numerous to list out.
Actually I do remember one. From what I have heard, people give Costco a lot of shit for generic (not the word I want to use) everything from socks to cakes and other everyday items. Buy my aunt bought her son's birthday cake at Costco and that was some decent cake. I have had better but the masses out there this cake was apparently the highlight of the birthday.
So to Costco congrats..And for the unfortunate soul who has to deal with my body after I 'pass on to the after life' put some ashes at a Costco for me. I'll give you rest of the places later on.
Oh and dinner tonight is chicken soup with sweet and yellow potatoes, radishes and other hearty vegs. Would warm my soul if I had one.
Later
