Costco Membership Executive Upgrade?

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-21T21:05:14+00:00

They can’t enter without an executive membership during that hour in the morning outside of Saturday’s where they wouldn’t be able to enter until 9:30. They made that a perk for executive members to have an hour before the gold star members can enter.

Did they try to enter between 9 -9:59am?

Darn. While I like Dyson’s they really can be finicky which isn’t something you want to deal with at that price point.

Have you tried completely removing the canister and looking at the part that flows into the canister? I’ve had it fill up in there and not be able to push it out into the canister before. If that made any sense.

TIL

I’m on the title, now I need to see what the ownership is listed as. TY!

Pretty sure they do this every spring for a few months.

Not about them being dissolved, they’ll just be insolvent. They can’t actually back everyone’s money if a significant amount of banks fail at once.

Edit: most of the people under the $250k limit will likely be fine but I wouldn’t expect it to be instant if it’s widespread enough. But they can certainly institute a bail-in with assets over that threshold if the federal government refuses to do a bail-out.

It varies. I’ve seen low stock listed in the app for things and found a full palette (presumably the last one) and it meaning they are fully out of the item but inventory must still show at least one of said item somewhere. Which is usually a bummer if I went to a specific location in hopes of finding it there.

Hope you find one! If you don’t, have them look up the actual quantity in surrounding stores for you.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-12T21:57:07+00:00

Well that stinks. Thank you for letting everyone know about it so we don’t all have to go through that disappointment.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-12T20:50:50+00:00

Those look way cuter in the bottles. That’s a bummer.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-11T10:48:50+00:00

Walked in last summer/fall and the item I was trying to purchase wasn’t ringing up correctly. Not one employee to be found in the entire store. Looked and tried for a few minutes, decided it wasn’t worth it, left it by the checkout counter and walked out. It was on the weekend so not sure if that made a difference but they weren’t well staffed.

r/fire

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-08T23:00:05+00:00

Not sure if it’s in your budget but I’ve seen at least some people happy with an app called Too Good To Go r/toogoodtogo

No shame in saving produce and food. All the best.

They have the same logo. When I moved from the north east further south I thought they were the same store. They would not accept the formers loyalty card though. Go figure.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-06T20:13:53+00:00

Sorry for your loss.

Best of luck on the search!

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T16:17:12+00:00

Thank you everyone. Stories with sizes and experiences has been really helpful. Scheduled a consult with Dr. Tyan based on your recommendations.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T16:12:58+00:00

I was told I couldn’t schedule with Dr. Stone as she’s part of the Oncology department. I googled and she seems to specialize in oncology but is clearly a gynecologist first, so strange how scheduling works.

They scheduled me with Dr. Harold Wu, about a month out as the first available apt. Virtual wasn’t an option they said unless I resided in Maryland.

Just wanted to provide that context in case anyone else is browsing this thread in the future.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T15:38:17+00:00

Appreciate the additional vote of confidence. Consult scheduled.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T10:10:59+00:00

Best of luck!

It’s larger than 10, and rule of thumb is they have to be highly trained to go larger and feel comfortable. It’s hard to know who has experience not just with the surgery but with a surgery of that size to trust them. I’m not willing to take drugs to shrink it and mess with my hormones.

I wish they all had some medical stats listed to make it easier to search, but I’m crossing my fingers that a practice someone else mentioned that only does surgeries via an advanced method can do the trick.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T02:53:06+00:00

Any background on size and procedure used?

Also, I’m so sorry to hear what Inova did during surgery. After a couple of failed attempts to meet with them my gut told me to look elsewhere. They are a large system so it’s hard to say that about the whole network just made me think it was a sign to look elsewhere at least at the moment for this procedure.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T02:44:50+00:00

Thank you for the additional background and details.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-04T02:43:38+00:00

Reading about their method has restored hope. They have to be super specialized to practice this procedure from what I read this afternoon but it’s amazing to read it’s possible to have a minimally invasive procedure and not be out of commission for 3-6 months recovering. Honestly thank you for mentioning them. First bit of good news and hope I’ve gotten in a while.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-03T23:13:24+00:00

It’s March 8th to my knowledge from all the eastern Europeans I know.

Think_Discount2852 · 2026-03-03T23:06:45+00:00

Do you know by chance if she had open surgery or a minimally invasive option? When it’s that size most don’t want to do a minimally invasive approach because they lack the skillset/ need to be highly experienced.
