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.

^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.

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.

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.

I wanted that 987 bad when I was a kid..

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

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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. https://www.costco.ca/rummo-gluten-f...000313016.html |
