Rules for Shopping at Costco

[SoapySophie]

A friend texted me earlier that she was going to Costco to get some paper products and did I need anything. I said no, but to text me how much she spent. She just texted back: $355. Ha!

That's a lot of TP!

While walking through the parking lot, be sure to let your kids run ahead of you/keep talking on the phone/be completely oblivious so that you can totally freak out drivers who are trying to back out of parking spots.

I almost got into a physical confrontation with a woman over this. At the local grocery store, I was waiting for her and her kid (probably age 6 or so) to walk across an parking aisle before I pulled into that aisle. I was WAITING for them. Made eye contact even while waiting so that she knew I had seen them. She made it look as though they were staying on the same side so I went to pull in. At the last second, her stupid kid ran in front of me as I was pulling in. She screamed at me to watch out and how dare I almost run her kid over. Made an absolute scene. It took every ounce of self control not to get out of my car and absolutely throttle her. I knew if I got out, things were going to go downhill and really fast. I'm not normally like that but there was something about her complete and utter stupidity that really got to me.

ETA: It still makes me so mad, even thinking about it.

It drives me crazy when it's raining (or snowing) that people driving in their warm and dry cars will make pedestrains wait in the rain so they can drive across the cross walk. Don't pedestrians have the right of way? Hmmmm.

I hate to give away my secret but use the back aisles. Seriously. Walk in and go straight to the back wall. Duck into the appropriate aisle then go right back to the back wall. If there really is such a thing as negative energy, I believe it has pooled in the middle of Costcos everywhere.
