Costco or Sam's Club?

Do you also use a credit card with bookoo rewards?

I mean, I'm posting on Anandtech, aren't I?

Yes, yes you are. So you get the Gold Card of ATOT.

In all seriousness, I have an Amazon card and given how much I shop there, the rewards are pretty great. Textbooks add up. My 980Ti was completely paid for by the rewards.

Nice. I don't buy from Amazon all that much to merit Prime or anything. I do shop eBay a lot and I get eBay bucks which has helped.

Well obviously Costco. Make sure you also buy a rice cooker from Amazon Prime. What? No Prime (Crime)? You a cave man or something?

You're trying to pimp Amazon in the almighty Costco thread? Amazon can't compete with Costco. Zojirushi 5.5 cup ricer cooker at Costco: $89.99. The exact same model rice cooker at Amazon sold by Amazon: $119.73.

Someone asked about cherry tomatoes. Costco stocks and sells cherry tomatoes all year round.

Instant Pot? Costco has Tristar Power Pressure Cooker XL 8-Quart on sale for $74.99. So what does Amazon do? Amazon has price matched Costco and is now selling the exact same 8-Quart cooker for $74.99. Meanwhile Amazon is still selling the smaller 6 Quart cooker for $99.99. That's Amazon for you. Never a leader in price but only follows. Not to mention, Amazon can't match Costco return policy. Amazon is good but they're no Costco.

To us hippies, the differences in employee treatment and compensation also matter.

Speaking of our favourite store, saw this a few weeks ago:

Pretty good deal. They work better than you would think.
