" Check out coffee prices.. 10.99 for the big Kirkland can at Costco last Saturday.. I think it was 9.99 a couple of weeks ago.. And 8.99 that long ago.." Wait tilll they fill the media channels with infomercial on how coffee can: 1. increase your odds on anything. 2. attract opposite sex. 3. eliminate cancer. 4. increase sex drive. 5. pay less tax. 6. earn more. 7. work less. awes me.

Wanns cut down on coffee costs? Stop in a motel lobby next time you want a cup. McD's can't even beat their price.

Inflation update!! Went to Costco yesterday and the big can of Kirkland coffee is NOW 11.99.. Was 10.99 a month ago.. And 9.99 a few months before that.... Also a sign of the times to come, maybe.. An older guy dressed well enough, if one like 70's browns in golf course style, polyester, polo shirts and slacks.. I don't, but that's a different story.. Different strokes and all that jazz I guess... Anyway, I noticed this guy was stopping at every sampling food station in the store and loading up.. And then I noticed, he didn't even have a cart.. So while waiting in line, I seen him walk out empty handed.. So I figured he was there only for grazing of his lunch.. Btw, it was about 12:45 pm.. So I asked the checkout clerk when we got up to her if this practice was very common.. She said, "sort of, people are doing it", or something like that.. Maybe too, he was just a cheap bastid.. I don't know.. Btw, I am sure tired of those food stations as people just park their carts and belly up around them gulping down processed foods causing utter congestion.. But maybe if they shut them down some people will go hungry.. So I don't know what to do..
