Ridiculous Quantities

Wednesday, September 3, 2008

One great thing about belonging to Costco is that if they carry something that you really like, you can buy it in ridiculous quantities. For example, we love gum. One day I decided to buy some Orbit gum at the local drugstore for my hubby. We had never had that kind, but he wanted cinnamon and I usually don’t like cinnamon gum because it is too bitey and it makes my tongue feel weird. I decided to be brave and try Orbit since I knew from past experiences that all the others were yucky. What a pleasant surprise. Subtle, not too bitey and it doesn’t lose it’s flavor in two nanoseconds either. Now we buy Orbit gum all the time and the cool thing is that it comes in a zillion flavors AND they carry it at Costco. Lucky us. Our second newest Costco find is Z-bars. Sean has been eating Clif bars for a while. The kids really like them, too, but Sean doesn’t like to share too much because the kids eat them all and then there are none for him. Again, lucky us. They also now carry the kid version of Clif Bars, Z Bars, at Costco. They are smaller and are great for lunchboxes, snacks and even breakfast, in a pinch.
