Why I Love Costco

Thursday night my husband and I ventured out into the cold night with the soul purpose of renewing our membership at Costco. We are not "buy in bulk" people, but we do love a good deal and Costco has them. Great deals on Pelligrino, furniture, shop towels, the occasional pillow and the amazing tunnel world pictured below. How much did this amazing toy of tarp, plastic tubing, nylon, velcro and covered springs cost???? $39.99? $49.99? No, folks, this guaranteed child pleasing toy rang up, with tax, a mere $20. 67 (or close to that...it was under $21.00). Not only did I find this amazing toy (that folds up and fits inside two bags that can easily be stored inside any closet on any shelf) I also found Christmas presents for my youngest niece and nephew. Mary Paul loves "Tunnel Land" and so does Daisy, who runs through the tunnels with great joy and abandon. All in all, a great purchase and a great night of family fun.

You've got to be kidding! That's the coolest toy ever...and for under $21. Mary Paul is just precious!!! Hope you all have a Happy Thanksgiving. Hopefully, we'll get to see you at Cedar Grove.
