| - I like Costco, not because of Ssoccer moms in soccer mom jeans, gratuitous amounts of samples, and or some the most underrated pizza by the slice. Quality. Costco has very consistent quality.
The meat is spectacular. The prime beef, when they have it, is amazing, Mary's boneless little leg of lamb is fab as well.
Seafood - they have some pretty darn good salmon, halibut, scallops, and lobster tail. Their prices are on par, or much less than supermarkets with equal or superior quality. They sell the salmon with out the skin and brown flesh, that is the part which smells like a boat of cod on a warm day.
Lets just say you are broke and have only 5 dollars to spend on protein for the week. What is one to do? The rotisserie chicken, the cornerstone of the Costconians diet. For all you non Cosctonians, you get a 3+ pound behemoth cock sans the head and feet, ready cooked,hot, and seasoned for 4.99. The possibilities are endless. chicken tacos,sandwiches, pasta, pet food etc.....
Deserts- Amazing deserts and bakery items. If you want to throw a going away party, get a caked and invite 100 of your closest friends! Now lets talk muffins, muffins half the size of your head. I will never be able to look at muffin the same way.
Drugs and Vitamins -You can by enough cough syrup to keep you old college roommate robo-tripping for weeks, and pay 1/10th the cost as your local CVS. What ever ails you or article you read that says supplement X will extend your life by a decade, Costco has it, and the smallest bottle will probably last a decade.
The only negatives I can really think of-, that 5$ chicken turns into 100$ of stockpiled toilet paper, strip steaks and dryer sheets. Oh almost forgot, a few Costconians get really aggressive over samples, especially around the holidays. Some d-bag who looked like he had one too many muffins, full body checked me reaching for the promised land of mozzarella stick samples.
