As someone who takes their bike trips seriously, I've always carried a manual pump to ensure I never get stranded with flat tires. However, when I stumbled upon the Fantic S100 Apex tire inflator at Costco, I thought, 'Could there be a more effortless way?' So I took the plunge and purchased this digital device for $40. What I found was more than just an inflator; it was a game-changer for my tire maintenance routine! TL;DR: The Fantic S100 Apex tire inflator from Costco offers convenience and versatility for anyone needing to inflate various types of tires, but it has some limitations worth considering. 1. First Impressions: Unboxing the Fantic S100 Apex When I received the Fantic S100 Apex inflator, my excitement was palpable. Opening the box felt like unveiling a new gadget. I couldn't wait to see what was...

 Saw this at Sunnyvale Costco It comes in a nice gift box.

 Brewed by Deschutes Brewery in Bend OR.

 Unfortunately, it isn't in stock everywhere.  But you can potentially get it delivered via Costco online . Item   1025112 The bags are compostable, and so are the pods.

 I really like these because they're relatively light weight, easy to put together, holds up to 150 lbs per shelf, made in the USA, and very affordable.   These have been used outdoors for over a year. They pair well with other Greenmade products sold in Costco. I have personally custom made some dolly's to use for the garage so that I can make them mobile. They are just some 2x4s, screwed together and some wheels.  I chose to do a two Greenmade Shelf configuration.

These are by Sokusa - a Korean Brand.  $8.99. Item 1835253 They taste good, but are not as large and awesome as some Hawaiian Chips Shrimp Chips I got in May in Oahu. Still a decent enough substitute for us main landers.

 I found these dish cloths at my local Sunnyvale, CA Costco.  $8.99 for a set of 12 Swedish style dish cloths.  This is by and far way cheaper than the ones that I've seen by at least a factor of 4.  Note these are made in China, and not Sweden and Costco, as a policy, has a maximum 15% markup on their products in general. What are they? Swedish dishcloths, also known as Swedish sponge cloths or Swedish dish rags, are a type of eco-friendly cleaning cloth made from a combination of cellulose and cotton. They are highly absorbent, reusable, and biodegradable. These dishcloths are known for their ability to absorb up to 20 times their weight in liquid, making them an effective and sustainable alternative to traditional paper towels or sponges. The special feature of Swedish dishcloths lies in their durability and reusability. They can be washed in the dishwasher or washing machine and air-dried, making them a long-lasting and eco-friendly option for cleaning various su...

If you can find this at your local Costco, and you need a small, quiet, powerful fan. Buy one.  Buy two if you can (helps with airflow throughout the house).  I got it for $24.99 shipped ( its now $39.99 shipped ).  Since I've posted my video, literally thousands of Costco members have found out about the fan and have purchased these cute fans home.  There's also quite a bit of a cult following on Facebook groups about it.  Lucky for many of you, its in stock this summer at your local costco and online. If they sell out, you can find this model on Amazon. Product Ad Copy: The Woozoo Globe Fan is the perfect solution for warm weather, providing maximum airflow and circulation in any room. The 5 speed settings, natural breeze pattern, and multi-directional oscillation allow for many options that can be easily changed from the included remote. Imagine the power of a whole room fan in the palm of your hand. This sleek and powerful device is perfect for cooling off a...

Today I came across a new, not even mentioned on Ninebot's website ES3 Plus.  I looked at the stats, technical details and they appear identical to the ES4.  I could find no other reference for the ES3 Plus other than Costco.com where you can purchase for $599.99. An even better deal right now is for a real ES4 for $499.99 at Amazon right now.   But of course you don't get the generous return policy Costco has. In case you're wondering if its worth it, I think its the best electric stand up scooter in its price range right now for the general public.

 It is $129.99 in warehouse, and $139.99 online, shipped. Its $100 cheaper than the Ring floodlight cam that I use and with no subscription fees.  But if you use the Ring Alarm system, and own other ring products, I'd still recommend you stick with Ring.

 These go on sale about once a year lately. My wife swears by them for makeup removal.  Sale expired 10/18/2020. I recommend setting a reminder every October to stock up. #664635 They go for much more typically on Amazon.  You can check the price for these here.

Today I visited the Costco in San Leandro and was welcomed to some special Valentine's Day treats available for purchase. Long Stem Strawberries dipped in chocolate, chocolate mousse cakes, velvet mouse cakes. What was nice to see was a decent selection of flowers and flower arrangements made available by the local contracted grower/florist were also available for purchase.

The last time I tried SF Bay Coffee from Costco was a few months ago.  It was some sort of organic coffee, don't remember the exact type but my wife and I did not like it.  This one was so much better this time around - it must have recently been roasted with expiration dates in October 2020. I think it was just around $10.99 a bag for 2 lbs.

No more eneloops for now it seems.  Energizer has taken over the Costco battery aisle with recycled batteries.  I believe consumer reports or some other review focused organization gave these a top rating, especially since Eneloops had sold out to Sanyo (I believe years ago). $29.99 price for the set, which looks really similar to the old Eneloops set. 6AA and 4 AAA included, the rest are spacers. 2000 mAH AA 800 mAH AAA Also note these are on promo from time to time.  $9 off from time to time. Check out prices on Amazon for these batteries here.

Has anybody tried this?  Comes out to $0.30 an ounce. Medium grind, Arabica Beands, Medium ground for most coffee makers.
