I shall check out Adidas sneakers.
In the good-old days, all brand-name sneakers sold in Costco were high quality. I used to buy (brand-name) sneakers at Costco and keep them for several years as backup. But lately, Costco sometimes sells low-quality sneakers. They look cheap as if they cut corners manufacturing them. All I want is a pair of sneakers that looks normal (classic). See the picture below. I already don’t like the white stripes on the tongues. The shoes will look much better without them. Hm….
Update: I saw the shoes at Costco. I didn’t like the look at all. But, I bought them anyway. It was a good price. I will use it for indoor running (treadmill). I have another pair of Adidas for outdoor running.

Charmin toilet paper on sale
After writing this blog I checked the Costco website and saw Charmin bathroom tissues on sale. They were on sale for 9 days only (the sale ends June 16, 2024). I happened to drive by a Costco warehouse today, so I picked up two 30-packs and saved $13. They were $23.49 each after savings. This reminded me to visit the Costco website occasionally.
If you are budget-minded, the Kirkland Signature brand gives you a better value for money. You get more for money with KS toilet paper at a regular price, compared to the sales price of Charmin. I had used KS toilet paper for many years. I bought a pack of Charmin a few years ago to see why they cost more. I’ve been buying Charmin since then. Kirkland Signature is good. Charmin is fancier.
