Continuing with the biggest theme, (calm down ladies, stay in your seats), I have a confession to make.
Today, I went to Costco, the worlds biggest discount club & bought 2 biggest in the world boxes of Ziploc bags (Best). Help there are only 2 of us at home, if we use 2 backs per week, it will take 3.5 years to use them.
My smart arse son will laugh at me, he calls it "The Costco syndrome"
Can't believe I did this. I just wanted or needed to have the biggest best amount of Ziploc backs. Forgive me. I went to the Costco Darkside. help.
