Never tried Surge. Mountain Dew is horrible, and a knock-off Mountain Dew just never sounded appealing.

I was indifferent to Surge but for some reason we got cases and cases of free OK Soda.

It was not OK, it was godawful.

Surge Cola draws a blank with me. I do remember Jolt, and a mini-craze for Canfield's Chocolate Soda that I participated in. It wasn't remotely chocolate, more like a cream soda variant, but it wasn't bad.

****ing Wordle is so easy. Unless it’s run by Gabe, in which case it’s life-suckingly impossible.

That's like the first version I ran with tough words. Still normal wordle though

I think the variant I named Advanced Wordle is vastly more interesting and puzzly

Here is a leaderboard for some Wordle solvers. https://freshman.dev/wordle/#/leaderboard

People have been able to get better results than the results in that video. SALET has been the best starting word so far it seems.

Kirkland Toilet paper/Paper Towels
Vacation Packages
Edit: OMG, I almost forgot - Pumpkin Pies!!!!

I'm sure I'm missing a bunch of other stuff. And there's tons of things that are good prices but will commonly be beat at other places. e.g. Coffee or Soda

Not so great deals:
Meats
plants
Desserts
Premade foods
TV are decent value but all mid range.
Computers are okay but probably a better deal at Best Buy when freq on sale

CHEESE Mark. On a cost to quality ratio, CostCo cheese is the best by a wide wide margin.

Kirkland brand cheese or other cheese?

It's just more cheese than I ever want.

Other brand cheeses. Like pecorino romano, parmigiano reggiano, tillamook extra sharp white cheddar, brie, etc.

Actual american cheese is great. Unfortunately most people think that pasturized processed cheese food is the same thing.
