I went to Costco to pick up a few things and while I Was there I decided to fill up my tank. Now, I love Costco as it is, but paying less for gas always makes me feel good. The lowest price for gas along the way was $2.55/gallon. Costco had it for $2.43/gallon. So I filled up and it only came to about $25.00. That is a dollar per gallon less than it was a month ago around here.

Then I go into Costco looking for King Crab legs. We’ve been yearning for crab for the past few weeks so today I decided to go ahead and surprise everyone with some crab. Cost co had it for $12.99/pound. I’m not sure if that is the best price around or not, but I know it is pretty good. Plus, the crab legs they sell and huge. Some of the grocery stores sell the skinny crab legs, but those are awful. Costco has nice meaty ones. So I got a little under 2 pounds for about $25.00. Dinner can’t come soon enough.

I went just before lunch time today and as I looked around, I noticed that the place is like a senior center at lunch time. They all go for the free samples and the $1.00 pizza. WTF? People were standing around in a crowd to get a cracker with Bruscetta on it. I couldn’t got over it. SO I quick-grabbed my crab and got the hell out of Dodge. Of course, the lines were about five deep with old people moving along like they wanted the day to last forever. I managed to control my impatience and got out of there with my sanity in tact.

That’s my big news for today. Obama is giving his final speech right now. Sounds like a sermon. Sadly, I think he’s going to win. Then you’ll all see the real Obama.
