Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Soda and 2 slices of cheese.. you okay?

[โ€“] [email protected] 51 points 2 years ago (2 children)

I get the feeling it was cheap pizza, not just slices of cheese ๐Ÿ˜‚

[โ€“] [email protected] 37 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Yeah, that's definitely a Costco food court receipt for pizza and soda

[โ€“] [email protected] 17 points 2 years ago

I was waiting for someone to recognize that it was Costco

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago

can confirm, was at a costco this morning, they didn't have any soda cups 10 minutes after opening at 10am

I mean, Iโ€™m not here to judge

2 slices? I see 1,184,757 slices on this receipt. Cheap, too.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Looking at that price it's cheap AF

Where the hell do you get food at that price? 2002?

That's $40 (plus 35% tip if you don't want them to spit in it) now a days.

Also a hidden charge from the owner that's "not a tip"

Apparently itโ€™s a Costco receipt, and their food court prices have stayed the same for a long time

Fun fact: The hot dog soda combo has been $1.50 since 1985. At one point the CEO wanted to raise the price of the hot dog and soda combo and the founder straight up told him "if you raise the effing hot dog, I will kill you. Figure it out."

I just bought a shirt that has the Hotdog and Soda pic from the menu with the quote under it.

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes, $0.69 soda is still the current price. $1.50 for a foot-long hotdog + soda...

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

That Hot Dog is not a foot long.

Costco is great like that.

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

Oh, you can get food at this price. You just need to accept that halfway through your meal, you're going to look down and question all your life choices.

Every time I get a Costco hotdog, it makes me feel sick to my stomach about halfway through. And then I can taste it all day long. ๐Ÿคฎ

Where the fuck do you pay almost 20$ for a slice of cheese?

[โ€“] [email protected] 4 points 2 years ago

Fancy cheese shop.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 2 years ago

I should have saved my Order # 001 after getting it late afternoon one day....never getting that again I bet.

Time to buy a lottery ticket!
