Why costco is terrible
I was shopping the other day for some necessary items for my house and some stuff to share at the office with my co-worker... I spent roughly 1 1/2 hours in there getting all the stuff i needed... at the check out the price came to 185 dollars. i swiped my Navy FCU card and the cashier said, "we don't take Navy Fed" so i reluctantly pulled out my Wachoiva card and she said, "we don't take visa"... at this point i was mildly frustrated so i ask, "Well what do you take?" "Cash, Check, or American Express" all of which i had none... and American Express? honestly, who even has that card? so i went to bloom, settling the fact that i didn't really need 12 bottles of Tylenol or 310 rolls of toilet paper and bought just what i needed at bloom, who saved me 100 dollars and took what ever card i gave them...

J.P. - found your blog and loved your comment about Costco. I can't count how many times I've spent twice what I've expected when shopping there, mostly because I've felt the urgent desire to have a set of flower-patterned salad bowls, or (like you mentioned) and infinite supply of toilet paper. At least when Jesus returns, we'll have enough since the idea of all the plagues and such occurring at the end of days will likely cause us to ... well, you know. Kevin
