Does anyone here have a Costco membership? Do you recommend it? My father-in-law keeps insisting we get one, but there’s only three of us and we don’t have a ton of room for storage. Would it make sense for us?

Oh yeah, I am obsessed. Do you have kids? I think it's especially worth it if you have kids. Best place to buy meats and canned goods, mac & cheese, frozen meals, etc. They also have great seasonal goods for like camping gear, and Christmas presents.

Thanks. Yes, ann18 month old

I love Costco. The membership is absolutely worth the price IMO. I get most of my groceries and household supplies (paper towels, TP, dishwasher pods, etc.) there. It's so much cheaper than going to Publix. And if you have any prescription meds, they're almost always cheaper at Costco's pharmacy. Not to mention the gas prices!!!

Thanks!

I have, and I really like it. It only makes sense if you go shopping frequently, have a large family, or eat a lot of the same things. I say that because everything comes in big bags or bigger sizes, so I don't think it makes sense to you. Can your in-laws buy things for you? I would use his card instead, hehe

A lot of people swear by Costco but I don't really feel like it's worth the cost of membership to me anymore. I used to love it, but with the prices of everything, I just can't shop there like I used to.

Realistically, making to Director is 2-3 years away and will require sacrificing time with my family that I am not prepared to give up.

I used to be really bad about not prioritizing my prayer life. But now I pray & talk to God all the time. I’ve seen what prayer does-it can change the trajectory of your life.

What happens when we pray is absolutely incredible.The Holy Spirit within us interprets our groans & our prayers to our advocate Jesus Christ who petitions God the Father on our behalf. The perfect triune God hears my prayers and yours!

Hi Guys,
Hope everyone is well.

I am looking for a part time role for additional income source. I currently work in Category Management team of a Packed Food Company in Mumbai, India.

When I look for the part time roles I only find shady MLM and some delivery jobs. Nothing wrong in delivery jobs, but I am more inclined towards WFH role as me and my wife are pregnant.

Can you guys suggest where can I find reliable part time roles?

Thanks,
Kunal
