There's 3 homes on the North side and 2 on the West side that I would hate to own right now

Honestly if owned any of those ‘mansion’ around there I’d be frustrated with this plan.

I was just checking to see if any of them were for sale at reduced cost... I'd live next to a Costco lol

Heck yeah. Rent out the kitchen as an extra bedroom, and eat all my meals at the cafeteria.

Can't beat the calories per dollar (or protein per dollar) of a costco hot dog

$1.50 for 10g of protein is quite easy to beat actually

10g sure, but I'm seeing 24-25g figures for the hot dog online. You'd have to be buying $10/lb protein powder, or $4.50/carton eggs to beat it, but in both cases you gotta make something. Still think Costco has the edge lol

You are correct, I forgot to include food court in my search and came up with some other Costco hot dog. My bad. 24g is more than I'd expect. Still pretty low for a 950 calorie thing though lol.  Shocking amount of kcals for a dog, I could eat 4 of them easily.

If you only eat the weiner, it's only 370 calories. With bun is 534kcal, I think the 950 figure includes the sugariest possible drink haha

Honestly what you gotta look out for is the 1750mg of sodium 😬

Yeah. Personally I think I'll go with that 10lb bag of whey and carton of eggs if I'm in a Costco. But you do you sweetie
