I drove the 2 hours to Twin Falls - specifically to go to Costco to buy a Windows Laptop. ONE item - in and out. Done. LOL I'm a Mac guy - but needed an up to date Windows machine for the AiM SmartyCam I'm setting up in the Lotus (if it works I'll get one for the Mustang too). My point of all this ----- by the time I cruised the aisles I'd blown thru a grand... And that's where they get ya. Everyone that bothers to go there - runs thru all the aisles and finds all manor of stuff they didn't know they needed. I just ASSume that whatever I put on the cart is the best price I'm going to get on that item.
