Cathlete
Ok, I was searching the forums to find info on the previously mentioned Costco Comfy Pants.

Lo and behold there's a Costco close to me! I thought this was BJ's land but I was wrong. There must be a way to get a one-day pass to look for the mythical pants.

So, I'm surfing the Costco site and I see at the top there's a tab for Funeral so I click it and, get this, you can buy coffins at Costco! For some reason I just find that really funny. Maybe it's my sick sense of humor. I have a picture of wheeling down the aisles with my cart full of gallon jars of mayo, 100 roll packs of TP, and an In God's Care Casket balanced on top.

In a completely different vein I wanted to inform anyone who is worried about running low on good chocolate that Trader Joe's makes something called Organic Dark Chocolate Truffle. It's a bar. My sister sent me one recently and, oh my! This is a fine, fine addition to the world of chocolate.

Thanks for listening. :p
 
I think I have noticed that on Costco's site before -- how bizarre!

I never have been able to find those comfy pants at Costco, but I will keep looking!

Did someone mention chocolate?
 
Costco fascinates me:eek: So much large stuff there, weird stuff there, all under one huge roof. And it has this "smell". Oh, I used to work security there many moons ago, I was the gal who checks your cart as you exit the building.
 
You know, I'm pretty sure you guys can't get "the comfy pants" there. I think they're only available at Costco in Canada. Maybe I should consider buying them out and exporting them:p

This is the first I've heard of these elusive comfy pants, but I'm intrigued! Maybe you could sent them all to us, Shelley! :)
 
Shelley, I think you're right about the Comfy Pants only being available in Canada.

Maybe you could consider opening a little online boutiqe. :p

I actually love going to these huge warehouse stores. There's something so almost other-worldly about them.

Some of the items are so crazy - who needs 10 pounds of garlic powder?

Plus the outrageous combinations of things that are available.

Tneah, the last time I was at my local BJ's the receipt checker dude offered me a flu shot. I guess they offer flu shots at BJ's. I'd already had mine but it was just another funny thing.

I'm not sure how widespread Trader Joe's are but that chocolate was transcendental. Highly recommended.
 
Can you order that coffin online? And does it come assembled, or is it 'easy to assemble'('yikes' in either case!).
 
I have had great luck recently at both Costco and Sam's with extremely comfortable yoga pants, or ''yoga pant'' as they were labeled. Sorry, the labels are long gone, but both are in stock right now in Houston. Most comfortable pants I've ever had.

Suzanne, if you're sick, then I'm sick too, because I find that to be hilarious! :7 :7 :7 :7 :7
 
Nancy, tilt your head to the side with me and say, Ah yes, it's just ever-so-practical although completely and utterly twisted! :+

Kathryn, there's a long list of details with the casket including acceptable reasons for return. Mmmmmabye you'd want to measure your prospective corpse prior to ordering????!!!??

Now there's a way to make your SO wonder if he's in trouble. Walking around him or her with a tape measure saying, hmmmmm, maybe the extra long.

Bwahahahaha!

ROTFLMAO!!

Or maybe someone here could contact Costco by email and direct them HERE to read what everyone has to say about this item. You can bet they'll become available then.

**blushing**

Thanks for that kind compliment. :)

You want funny, check out A Girl Named Zippy by Haven Kimmel.

Actually, that reminds me to change my signature..... no relation, I promise
