Context: the founder of Costco, Jim Sinega, once told the CEO that if they raised the price of the hotdog + soda combo he’d kill him.

    That CEO should’ve been booted immediately if they were too stupid to understand the concept of ‘loss leader’.

    It’s messing with me that there’s a Pepsi on her shirt and on the sign in the background, but she’s holding a Coke.

        Are the condiment packets also lore accurate? The last time I went to Costco was a few years ago and I remember them still using the dispensers.

      Looks like a couple on a date who just bought an oversized teddy bear and a Footlocker employee passed out on a table

    Is the white stuff supposed to be onions, sour kraut, rice, or cottage cheese? 🤨

      It’s onions. Costco has them at the condiments bar.

          Yeah I wasn’t sure if they still do. I honestly haven’t paid attention the last few times I went.

    He told me he was going to Costco. How’d they find it later in a pond outside Chicago? Why you only holler when it’s Contra in a foxhole? Why you never pop in with some tacos and an Optimo?
