Just checking my unopened bag. No number anywhere, but the best before date is February 7th 2026.

Damn, I was looking forward to munching on them. Once I start, I just can't stop eating them. They're so good. Not as good as the ones that were made locally like decades ago. Can't remember the name.

Anyway, thanks for the quick reply.

I go downtown. Way better, and parking is cheap + Richmond is the only Costco I’ve ever been too with non Costco sized parking spots. Wtf. If anywhere, that place needs it the most.

Even better, park at Tinseltown for free and walk over if you're feeling extra cheap!

Badhobz 10-27-2025 11:33 AM

^thats disgusting!!!! ewww... walking!?

Just park at costco, dont pay, and if they ever give you a ticket, dont pay that either until you get a few tickets and then change your license plate.

They never check. Ive parked at that downtown costco for years without paying. But unfortunately with my NEIN plate, i had to start paying.

What time did you go? I've never had any issues with parking ever since they instated the scanning policy at the door, it's literally cut the traffic by half at the Richmond location.

Saw this thing in person yesterday. I think it was $250?? Box is huge.

side note: I found parking in less than 5 mins even though it as busy

EvoFire 10-28-2025 01:17 PM

Those diecast were 18.99 4 years ago IIRC, they don't have anything good this year anyways. That Beetle 964 mold is from like 30 years ago.

That sounds about right. It was a bday gift for my niece and my sister wasn't amused when she unwrapped it :lol

The last time I bought one was around 10 years ago when they were $12.99. Lots of fillers from back then are still here (964, T-Bird etc.). I wanted that 987 bad when I was a kid..

Badhobz 10-28-2025 02:31 PM

Yikes. So these tariffs and inflation are hurting everyone quite a bit.

bcrdukes 10-28-2025 03:41 PM

Tariffs only hurts you if you let it. For everything else, there's Mastercard.

Doughnut talk again.

Actually this time, it's a Krispy Kreme Road Show. IIRC, they were $11.99 today, for a dozen. They had samples from a warmer. Did not know how good they are warmed up. I was shocked they were using a microwave. It was really, really good. They're there for two weeks? Willingdon location right now. Then, they move on to other locations. Lee's was there a while ago. I love Road Shows.

spoon.ek9 10-28-2025 09:36 PM

Road show you say...

He doesn't usually shop with the poors. Just nod your head and smile.

3-8 minutes is good? Lol 5 minutes of waiting, I’m out of there…


For the other poster, previous accounts were likely prior to scanning cards. Maybe that’s why I got in this time. Lol

spoon.ek9 10-29-2025 11:00 AM

If 5 mins is too long for you, I don't know what to say lol. It's far worse at the Asian malls.

unit 10-29-2025 12:49 PM

at least at the asian malls like aberdeen and crystal you know if you keep going lower or higher you will get a spot for sure.. at costco you have to stalk people going to their cars or camp in the lanes.. both suck but for different reasons.

You'd be better off heading off to the far corner of the lot and grabbing a spot than stalking. That's what I've always done at Willingdon.

Richmond you have to stalk or street park. I stopped going to Richmond unless I absolutely have to. I had my cart stolen 2x, and had to ram some old guys cart out of my way as he was physically trying to line up in 2 checkout lines at once.

Not worth the hit to my blood pressure.

Spotted today in DT :heckno:

holy fuck $24 meal

bcrdukes 10-30-2025 09:41 AM

I know the package if sealed/closed, but it looks like it has been eaten with the open space in the container hahaha

Badhobz 10-30-2025 09:50 AM

Honestly their rolls suck. Their nigiri is okay. But the rolls are pretty weak. Best deal is the sashimi platter.

Richmond + normal parking spaces = DOUBLE NO :heckno:

If anyone sees this brand of pasta, RUMMO gluten free, can you let me know? Willingdon is sold out and we are all out. I've since learned it's discontinued. It's the best gluten free pasta we've ever had.
