So, without sounding like a total bragger, things have been going pretty great, so I decided to join Costco since a new one opened up by me.  This is only the second membership I have ever had, the first being part of the Members Only jacket club, when I was gifted a light blue Members Only jacket when I was around 11 years old.

 

Now, I know what some of you are thinking..."Teach, how can you afford that?" and "Teach, how dare you become a member of a giant greedy corporation that is putting Mom and Pop stores out of business" and "Teach, can you PLEASE teach me how to talk to women, I am super lame when it comes to the females"

 

I get it, I know some of you are not members and I know some of you don't even live near one and can only dream of people a member of a super exclusive club, but enough about me.  I will be sharing some of my thoughts on the things I bought.  Think of these as reviews, if you like, because well they are reviews.

 

First up

 

The Premade Gyro Kit

 

Cost:  19 dollars 

What it comes with:  6 pitas, lettuce, chopped up cucumbers, tomatoes, two containers of Tzatziki sauce and a container of blue cheese crumbles.  And of course the delicious gyro meat. 

 

Review:  Totally worth it, easily makes 6 gyros but you can probably stretch it even more.  You have 3-4 days to eat them, give or take and you will have left over Tzatziki sauce, which is a plus.

 

Score:  Considering this comes to about 3.50 cents per gyro and it is really good, this is a no-brainer purchase.  

 

4/4 thumbs up.

Ooooh, fancy, a Costco member. Fat stacks from your teach’s gambling on stocks picks I assume.

Again...I don't want to brag...

 

But, if you are thinking about joining, feel free to drop my name when you go to see if you can become a member.

I thought you just spent all your money on fast cars, women, & alcohol personally. Probably hopped into your 69 Chevelle after art class armed with a leather jacket and cigarette to cruise around town. That is the Teach I like to envision that posts on this board. 

 

 

But a man does have to eat. I too can vouch for the gyros.

I actually like the your version of me more than the real me!!!

 

Do you picture the pack of smokes being rolled up in my sleeve??

 

Also...you want your head to explode?  I drive a honda.  Just typing that made me feel like less of a man.

I’d like to think you have a few good hideouts for your cigs. Maybe inside an old book at work.

You have four thumbs?  Are they on the same hand?

Costco has some good stuff but not having order pickup and constantly moving everything around in the store is a huge turnoff for me

I do not understand the flow of the store yet, it is confusing when I am in there and that annoys me.

Don't get used to it cuz it'll change in a month lol

 

We cancelled our Costco membership mostly because our local store was small (smallest one I've been to) and the parking was s#!t. 

 

I really like the order pickup at Sam's cuz it keeps me from coming home with a cart full of BOGO family size Doritos :lol:

Newest Review:

 

Husker quarter zip.

 

Price:  29.99

 

Red chest, block N in gray, gray sleeves, super comfy, like what I imagine it would be like to cuddle with David Hasselhoff. 

 

Probably a 50 dollar quarter zip at most stores.  

 

Score:  3 thumbs up.

Is this on a "Two Thumbs Up" or a "Five Thumbs Up" scale?
