    I ain't bigtime? Just fed my family for $6.43 at Costco.
    Made our bi-weekly trek to Costco today. Got there about noon, so decide to just eat there. Wife & I each had a slice of pizza (pretty damn good, by the way), and the kiddo had a jumbo hot dog. All this plus 2 drinks for 6.43!

    If that ain't livin' the +EV life.....then I don't know what is?

    For full disclosure, need to admit I did splurge for the Churro and a frozen yogurt as we were leaving, but still.......unreal experience overall.

                    You did good Opie. Getting a good deal makes the food taste that much better.

                      You have that market cornered. Only cooking video I'd comparably make is one involving meth.

                        yeah, but was the Costco bill +EV also. That had to be close to 3 bills.

                          You can't beat the prices at the costco snack shack.. I know people that eat there everyday for lunch.. Extremely cheap.. Hopefully you chowed down on some samples as well

                                  I have a strong feeling Opie is staunch republican, he could careless about stimulating the economy

                                                That said..That's a good deal!
                                                Using the word 'but' in the middle of a sentence usually negates the first part of said sentence. For example:

                                                I'm sorry, but this food isn't good. (i'm not sorry)
                                                I would like to go, but I don't like feel like it. (i don't want to go)
                                                I'm not telling you what to do, but you shouldn't do that. (i'm telling you what to do)

                                                Just sayin.

                                                          Exactly, this is life, with just a handful of big moments sprinkled throughout to spice things up. Life isn't about waiting for a big moment to arrive - life will just pass you by if you do this. This is life. Enjoy it.

                                                            I'm sorry, but this food isn't good. (i'm not sorry)
                                                            I would like to go, but I don't like feel like it. (i don't want to go)
                                                            I'm not telling you what to do, but you shouldn't do that. (i'm telling you what to do)

                                                            Just sayin.
                                                            I think the "and" was intended.

                                                            No offense, and I'm not trying to tell you how to feed your kid, but you keep giving him that cheap ass unhealthy crap, its going to come back to haunt you.

                                                            "No offense" - not trying to contradict opie's words (+ ish tone)
                                                            "I'm not trying to tell you how to feed your kid" - also not trying to contradict opie (+ ish tone)
                                                            "Giving him that cheap ass ..." - is contradiciting opie (- tone)

                                                            so it's:

                                                            +, and +, but -. This is fine.

                                                              That said..That's a good deal!
                                                              We really try to watch her food intake most of the time. She's only 3, so we still want her to enjoy all kinds of food & have fun, but I agree this type of stuff needs to be limited.

                                                              This being said, her going complete ape shit because I didn't let her get anything at Costco may be a worse deal than a hotdog!
