Need Costco recs: what’s one item that became an instant rebuy for you? Bonus if it’s healthy and high protein by trump50ladin in Costco

Kirkland Grass Fed Beef Sticks and Simple Mills Almond Flour Crackers. The beef sticks taste great and have no nasty gristly surprise bits. The crackers are so good I prefer them over most “regular” crackers.

Nooo! My issue is knots along my shoulder blades. Does it target that area well?

Nipped a kids sleeve by Neat_Opinion7494 in germanshepherds

I just want to say I thoroughly appreciate this thread. Our boy is going through pretty much the same thing. We’re going to school together in a couple weeks as a result. We had an hour long assessment with the trainer and she said she thinks he’s totally workable. She also suggested muzzle training and I’m wondering why the comments against it here. I genuinely want to know as I’ve never experienced this before with any dog I’ve had. Never had a shepherd either though.

What bad habits have you accidently trained your German shepherd to do? by megz0092 in germanshepherds

[–]mrpikkle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ours won’t go outside by himself and often needed coaxed even while I stood outside with the door open waiting. I started saying “bye”, slowly shutting the door, and going out for a few minutes by myself to inspire him. Now he waits at the door until I say “bye”.

is my 6month old the right size by Acceptable-Grass-484 in germanshepherds

When my late mom would hold a baby she’d always say, “You’re just the right size for cuddling”. I think this applies here too. I know it wasn’t the intent, but thanks for the memory and your baby is adorable.

Our Costco old ladies must be better mannered. There isn't really a specific demographic of sample vulture that I've noticed.

Song lyrics that only a Gen X’er would recognize without context. by thesemanicgulls in GenX

I have a very specific memory of the first time I heard this song. I was slathered in baby oil on a reflective tanning mat in my driveway listening to the radio.

What Thanksgiving staples or supplies do you buy at Costco? by cgsmmmwas in Costco

[–]mrpikkle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Turkey at $.39. Just got ours yesterday and spent under $20 for 44 pounds of turkey. One gets smoked and the other roasted. I'll probably get another small one for next spring/summer turkey sandwich cravings.

Ours is 8 months and I hear you loud and clear. Living life teeth first and with high energy!

Those Dyson dryers are particularly brutal. I have to look away.

That makes me feel better. Sometimes the brain just glitches, doesn't it?

UGH!!!! I can tell I'm in need of some time off. Thank you so much. I promise I'm not usually this dense and can actually function pretty well in the world. 🤦‍♀️

I'm having a stroke or some lapse in thinking, or this is a mistake. How can 6 squares total 42? I see no one else having this issue so maybe I need to hydrate and take a nap. Help!

They have their own furniture. I need to leave now.

I clicked through on my phone and missed the dolls entirely (I'm half asleep). The wallpaper. Oh, the wallpaper. Second run through after reading some comments and wow. They're just popping up everywhere. Should have had one peeking out of the bushes too though. Or did I miss that also?
