Anyone own a Tesla?

That damn "The Cookie" is phenomenal.

I’m seeing more and more of those. I agree ugly AF. I drive a Rivian and it’s amazing.

If I had the scratch I'd probably spring for a Rivian, but I'm just driving my old ICE vehicle until the engine and transmission die. I'll let companies keep iterating on EVs and let the infrastructure improve for a few more years. I want one, but I want to be able to charge it more conveniently. I am optimistic about the heavy R&D going on in the battery space. If the packs end up carrying sodium instead of lithium, for example, that'd be huge

I’m a terribly cynical person by nature and make fun of people that drive pickups when they have little need for them. Especially these days with the oversized and overpriced monstrosities we see on the roads. They quite effectively appeal to satisfying some men’s libidos and addressing their insecurities.

The first company that figures out an electric version of the old compact Toyotas or Rangers ought to make a mint. I'd be first in line. I don't want a full size truck and don't need it

I’d be 100% interested in something like that. I’d like a smaller practical sized pickup. Probably won’t happen anytime soon though.

Is that really what it stands for? If so, I had no idea.

And M-I, no kidding. I know people who get their groceries at Fred Meyer, at times because one item is on sale at perhaps Winco prices. Ever shop there? Unbelievably expensive, but I guess the well-heeled whiteys in YakiVegas can avoid all those dirty Mexicans by shopping there. And yes I run into people that have never even heard of Winco, even though it is right next door to Costco.

I like how Winco posts the prices of other stores on its items, particularly produce. Safeway routinely clocks in at double the price. I might grab an item or 2 at Safeway occasionally just because it is close by and I have a club card, but my weekly stock up trip is to Winco. I buy 1 item and I've already paid for the $1 in extra gas it took to get there.

Fed Meyer is just a depressing place to shop. What isn’t locked up is out of stock.

WinCo is one of the few places I can still find frozen OJ. Love the bulk section.

You are IN MAJOR MISS by not having the Costco Visa

Besides the gas pricing... besides the awesome cheap and high quality products... besides the easiest return policy on the planet...

The cash back rewards in untouchable as you get money back from Costco and then a 2nd seperate kick from Visa.

I have almost all the house bills, insurance bills, etc... on auto pay through the card...

I have a relatively large amount of travel as well...

I am normally around $2000 a year in cash back.

Agreed! And all of my travel and vacations go on it, because of the annual 3% cash rebate, which is pretty significant!

Plus, the gas is a no brainer.

We forgot to plug Trader Joe’s.

Got to be up there as my all time favorite!

You mean you don't like your bread, eggs, and tomatoes on the bottom of the bag?! You monster...

I worked as a CCK after graduation for a handful of months, and I loved the challenge of playing Tetris with each bag and placing the items correctly in bag (plastic versus paper was another fun game).

Well, my grocery bags never have tomatoes in them, because those are disgusting.

But I have seen kids put bags of chips or loaves of bread under canned goods or packages of meat. The one that really boggles my mind though is when they put gallons of milk and bottles of laundry soap - things that have their own handles - into a grocery bag. And usually, they put the gallon of milk into its own individual bag. Once I went into a store, I bought milk, bread, and eggs, and they gave me 3 bags. SMH.
