There are artificial Christmas trees that are pre-lit, as well as fresh cut Christmas trees sold in some Costco parking lots.

I thought I was capturing the next breaking news scandal. Instead, it led me to learn about a fascinating new product being introduced by Costco. It turns out the workers are […]

Costco is giving away a free sample of the new Kirkland Signature Shampoo and Conditioner. They have changed the formula once again. While many people praised the quality of the shampoo and conditioner in the past, there is one gripe that stood out, the fragrance. Many people described it as a cherry vanilla smell. From […]
