So happy......and it will be re-upped every year for our ongoing Christmas present. Only problem??? We don't have a Costco near us.....we have to drive either 2.5 hours to one store or over 3 hours to another. We do go to the city 2.5 hours away almost every 3 - 4 months so we will use the membership, just wish it was closer for us.

Sure they have some scheduling disputes and the typical co-worker infighting, but corporate is fair with them which is more than any other retailer I know.

... after impatiently waiting to get at a gallon of milk because a gentleman was taking his time choosing his bottle. The man turns around and it's Sanders, 1 of 100 US senators in the world. Small state in a small world.

I thought maybe there were unruly shoppers at that particular Costco and he was caught in the scrum!

the doily-clutchers and control freaks should have some fun with that, I think. BOOZE leads to bad behavior, swearing and using the wrong salad fork. Get him!

Honestly, I don't drink but I can't blame anyone who decides to stock up for the next 4 years.

He has since moved closer to the lake but he said that Bernie is a really nice guy. FYI, my brother is a republican.
