    That's the thing about Costco...as much as I love it, there's no such thing as buying "just one."

    It's a bushel basket or a 50 gallon drum kinda place...

    True. About the amounts at Costco.  However, there are things that one can store up on, and use over time. We also get coupons fairly regularly from Costco, in the mail, on stuff we normally purchase. Which really helps out. I don't have a Sam's club membership. But was given a short term card years back. And found that Sam's Club sizes of " stuff" were smaller than Costco. Don't know if that still is the case today.

    Kroger has New York strip for 5.99 through Tuesday.  I will say I'm pretty happy with the sirloin from Meijer when on sale.  Costco is too out of the way for me and my fam is too small.  

    Had a steak from King Soopers, Sunday (last night).  King Soopers has been in Colorado for years. Actually knew the daughter of the guy who started the chain.  Then they sold to Kroger.  So, now a lot of the products have Kroger packaging.  Mrs mile loved the steak I prepared last night.  It was on sale as well.

    Not sure about your Costco.  But, our local Costco has the highest rated steakes in Colorado.  We have a local meat shop that gets their steaks from the same producer.  But charges twice the price that Costco does.

    My friend don't you ever sleep? 

    One of my dogs woke me up to be able  to go out side to do some "business".  No biggie.  Being retired.... I can nap anytime during the day.

    But.... the bigger question is...... What are you doing up.... so early ?   LOL

    HSN,

    First, thank you. The vast majority of you have handled this difficult and divisive topic respectfully.

    The mods have come to a few conclusions. Deviating from our norm, we feel it is important to publicly inform the community.

    We made a difficult decision to ban RTZ, who we all know has been a long time member. Regardless, we want to convey to all of you that we are serious about our rules and culture. We also want everybody to know we value each of you. When anybody so blatantly breaks the rules and gets that personal, we have to act decisively. This protects our culture as well as showing our members we will not tolerate personal attacks against any of you. Regardless of who it is from.

    We are going to reopen this thread. It does serve a purpose. 

    Just be respectful of the rules and each other. Debate and discuss, as most of you have.

    Obviously this will be monitored very closely.

    Again, thank you all. We do not take the community or individual for granted. 

    Carry on.

    With over 110k views, this has been a very important thread.  Don't mind saying I was discouraged when it got locked. But understood why. Sad that we have lost a long time member. Maybe there will be a get out of jail  card for him in the future.  And I am very pleased that it got unlocked.  Thank you Thank you.Thank you.   Tough job being moderator.  You guys are the best !
