I think I fucked up, I had to return something to Costco and then come home. But once I returned the item I had to grab a 1.50 hot dog and soda. Then I decided to eat the hot dog and walk around the store. As many of you know you can’t just go to Costco and not buy anything am I think this is the point where I fucked up. I started walking around and they had everything that I needed at least that’s how my brain is now wired to think.

I had to go get a cart my brain was running like crazy. Did I need a new hose and hose reel no but did the price look great 100%, did the kids need a dragon water slide 100% no but damned if I’m bit going to have the dragon water slide. Did I need 10 pounds of short ribs nope, I still have some in the freezer o but I got them.

For those that haven’t been to Costco you get swept up in a sense of euphoria while walking around and looking and bulk items and slightly cheaper items around the middle it’s fantastic.

I was supposed to be returning one item and coming home and I ended up spending a few hundred dollars I didn’t need to spend. I didn’t realize I fucked up until I got home and my wife gave me the wtf look, also as in typing this I think I fucked up again, the dragon water slide is going to kill my lawn when I set it up. So yeah I fucked up.

I will not learn from this but I’ll try to be better

TL;DR: Next time I’m going without my wallet or maybe bringing my wife this can’t keep happening.
