That impulse purchase

[PittPa]

I just checked, there are only 10 Costco Business Centers in the entire country.

Not sure how jacked up I would get to see reems of laser paper and envelopes? Do they sell business wines?

Costco is still my go to place when I need to replace the car battery.

I haven't been in a few years, but if I remember correctly they have entire lambs and piglets and massive chunks of beef and other BIG things.

They are currently building one a minute from my office so I will be joining this for sure because of the convenience. Might drop the Sam's since its a bit of a drive. Hoping they have something unique to offer?

BJ's membership is normally $55 per year but if you look online for coupons you can get it down to $25.

Nice FLF! Here's an even more IMPRESSSIVE one I bought from Costco a few months back - nearly 8' when planted. It just barely fit lying down with all the seats folded! It's even still alive!

EDIT : Added the repotted result!

Nice score!!! I’d leave my kids behind to transport that home. If you don’t mind me asking, what did you pay for it?

Thanks! It was $29.99, which is shockingly low! When I bought it, Costco had a mixture of short and tall FLFs, and had an OVERABUNDANCE of them! I think that the nursery screwed up and sent the large ones with the smaller ones. FLFs of this size at a nursery would be $200+. I've been babying it every since, monitor watering with moisture sensor, added a dedicated humidifier! FLFs should be renamed Fickle Leaf Fig trees. Mine did drop about 30-40% of its leaves to "adjust" to its new surroundings, but has since grown 4 new big leaves at the top and is now even taller ... closer to 9' in the pot. Pretty happy so far, hoping it survives!

For that price, I would’ve bought 3! I’m jealous of course. I hope your FLF continues to do well. Fingers crossed that mine isn’t overly stressed.

There are more than 10 Costco Business Centers in the country, probably 10 in CA alone. They do stock items that are for businesses, but I find things that regular Costco don't carry. They have more varieties and larger sizes that businesses want. Yeah, and if you want a huge piece of meat. Very large walk in cold room for vegetables, fruits, dairy products, and meats. If too cold, they have jackets to wear.
