...that giant boxes of waffles can randomly leap out of your freezer and onto your pinkie toe, causing you to jerk up your foot and ram your knee into the bottom of the refrigerator door handle.
be warned.
:P |

Copy that, adding "random waffle attacks" to my list of things to be wary of. ;-)
Hope you're okay, man. That sort of thing can bring tears to your eyes!

| That can happen with my expensive refrigerator...I opened that door one night and one of those "small" 3 pound turkeys fell on my big toe. Thought I broke the toe. |

| Ah, you didn't read ALL of the tiny-print warnings on the box, eh? (Of course, if that isn't there as a warning, you're entitled to a healthy law settlement!) |

But they actually do pretty decent and inexpensive photo printing.

Oh, and dont forget the helpers at the door who check your receipt just in case Costco overcharged you!
uhmmmm, i dont think so. Methinks they are looking for the 42" flatscreen secreted amongst the boxes of toilet paper.

My wife has to educate the door people and half the management in ADA law almost every time she goes. They almost always hassle her about bringing in her service dog because he wears a harness most of the time rather than a cape. They just can't understand that a service dog doesn't even have to have any indifacation to be a service dog and have access. It took her months to get the personal at the one Costco trained and then they build a new one near us that we go to and she has to re-train them all over. She does it so well to. :D
But Costco quit carring the cases of Kaddy Shack rice pudding that we all (dogs too) love so much. Bummer.

| I stopped going to Costco. You go in for a few things, and somehow end up spending over $200. They have too many cool gadgets and neat stuff at the end displays that are hard to pass up. I love the place, but have no self-control when I'm there. :-( |

The cashiers are always surprise when I only have 1 or 2 items to ring up. |

I don't play the "I need to prove that I didn't steal anything" game too well. I don't like having to wait in a line after the checkout line to prove that I'm taking only what I paid for. I go right around the line out the door, and when they object, I tell them that I've already waited in one line and then invite them to check my purchases as they help me transfer them from the shopping cart to the trunk of my car. |

I thought they checked the cart to make sure the cashiers weren't crooks--that is, the cashier "forgets" to charge thier friend for the expensive item, or charges twice for a cheap item and doesn't charge for the expensive one "by mistake".
It says a lot about the management of a company when it can't trust its own employees. |
