I get dragged there by my wife and usually ending up costing her a bunch of money. :laugh:

I went to Costco last week to get a b-day cake, I ended up walking out with a b-day cake.

i buy my Dockers at Costco and save a crap load of money compared to buy them someplace else.

i also have a few long sleeve button down IZOD dress shirts that were FAR FAR cheaper than anyplace else.

Sorry, carrots (or any other vegetable for that matter) should NOT be in cake. :|

It was chocolate with chocolate filling and white buttercream frosting, decorated with their billiard theme. People loved it and we also had a few conversations about the carrot cake. I almost went for the cupcakes but 20 wasnt going to be enough, also they are pretty large alot of people opted for a small piece of cake of course, so it was the right call. I actually walked out TWICE with pure dicipline, once to order the cake and once to pick it up. I didnt even walk around for lunch, you know sample size lunch. ;)
