I ordered it online sight unseen. I know some things can be ordered by non Costco members with a surcharge.

That's right. Platforms are used and not box springs.

Same here. We only have BJ's here at the beach but I like Costco much better.

A bit OT, but interesting...TripAdvisor's 2017 restaurant rankings have chosen a little English pub in the Yorkshire countryside as #1.

"Coming in just behind the Black Swan in the rankings was another British eatery, Belmond Le Manoir aux Quat’Saisons, followed by Maison Lameloise and L’Auberge de l’Ill, both in France, and Spain’s Martin Berasategui.

The top five in the US were Daniel (Daniel Boulud’s Upper East Side flagship), Victoria & Albert’s in Orlando, the Charleston Grill in Charleston, Alinea in Chicago, and Chef and the Farmer in Kinston, North Carolina."

I have been to Charleston Grill and Chef and the Farmer. I spent many happy times with my aunt and uncle in Kinston. It is still strange to me that such a small town can have such a famous restaurant.

I'd like to recommend you look in the drawer and see if you might have a packet of MickeyD's szechuan sauce. This is nuts folks.

If your 2016 tax return is still on extension I'd like to recommend that you file it by the deadline on Monday and pay your taxes in order to avoid a late filing and late paying penalty.
