Costco

I was at Costco the other day and noticed they're having a sale on the Canon Power Shot camera. For only $249 you get the camera, a case and an 8-gig SD card! I went home and rationally explained that incredible value to my wife: "PLEEEASE! Oh please, please, pease!!!"

We were talking about Ashton Kutcher's advice to young people to never be too good for a job. One of the best jobs I ever had was working at Costco. People generally look down on retail jobs and the folks who work them, but I'll have you know that job was full of dignity.

Making flower arrangements is a fun tradition for any family around Easter. It doesn't have to be a costly tradition either. Flowers can be purchased for under $10 a bunch at Costco, and $3 a bunch at Albertson's. Vases can be purchased for a dollar at The Dollar Store...
