The 20th anniversary of the release of Spike Lee’s ground-breaking movie Do The Right Thing, which dealt with a day in the life of a block in Bed Stuy, and in so doing brought the multi-layered issues of gentrification race coexistence and conflict in the inner city to a broader national audience. Two decades later, how much has changed and how much remains the same?
I’ve been to other Costcos that had bags 🙁 And they werent stingy with them! I know they can’t have every brand, but it sure was disappointing to not find any toothpaste or toilet paper I could live with. It was a sad day 🙁
Ah, well, I guess the rain will just have to enjoy the soiree in my bedroom and kitchen.
Snappy,
Most of those types of warehouse stores offer limited brands. They can’t carry every brand or it would increase their overhead, then no discount.
None of them offer bags either. It’s literally is warehouse shopping.
snappy, it’s raining everywhere now. too late for you to make it home to close the windows
Balsamic reduction is good over newly scraped slice of reggiano.
red wine vinegar, olive oil, dijon mustard, chopped shallot, dash of salt.
Arkady…that’s the one I’m talking about!
Sam’s has wider selection of brands, it’s true.
Sanppy – Sounds like an awful experience but the one on 3rd Av & 39th St is better. They don’t have bags but you can find boxes (I take old Key Food bags when I go.) Service staff are pleasant & helpful. I take visitors from UK there as a tourist delight. Prices are generally good except Hellmann’s which is better on loss-leader at Key or Pathmark.
Oh, and their selection sucked in terms of different brand offerings…they only had toothpaste gel…yuckola!
