Costco and American Express are breaking up. My American Express card will no longer work at Costco next year. I will no longer receive a cashback reward check. Without a Costco cash-back reward, I have no reason to continue using the American Express card.

Anyway, here’s my cash back reward certificate of $262.03

I am crossing my fingers for good news on the AmEx alternative for Costco members.

Costco’s executive members receive 2% on most Costco purchases.

I received $55.48, so it paid for my executive membership plus 48 Cents.

That garden watering kit seemed pricy ($21.49). But I wanted to treat myself with some fancy gardening tool. I water my plants every day. So, $21, 49 is a small price for convenience and fun I may have.

Spring is coming. I planted 1 lemon tree in the front yard.

I replaced the kitchen faucet.

After Costco shopping yesterday, I had a phone conversation with a friend. I told her I bought a nice kitchen faucet at Costco. And, get this, she asked me how much it would cost me to install it. I was a little offended. She completely dismissed my mechanical common sense. I am not clueless. I build my computers from scratch. So, I told her that there should be no problem for me to install the faucet. I have never replaced a kitchen faucet before, but how hard can it be?

So, today, I installed the kitchen faucet.

I’ve been checking out this kitchen faucet for a while. Kitchen faucets have a wide range of prices. At Home Depot, I saw kitchen faucets ranging from $40 to $200+. I bought this faucet with blind faith. This has to be a good deal. It looks pretty good. The difficult part is that I have to install it. This WaterRidge faucet was $78.99.

I like the Kashi granola bar. It’s tasty. I bought 2 more boxes. Everyone should keep granola bars at work. I often get hungry at work. I didn’t research, but my guess is that granola bars are better than Sneaker bars. 

Six Calla lily bulbs were $11.99. This is a great price. Costco will have flower bulbs that will perform in your climate (zone). And they will be available for you at the right time to plant them. This is a great benefit of shopping at Costco. It takes away the guessing game.

A glass pot of live tulips is for my mother.

I found these LED lights. I have two sets of fluorescent lights in my garage. So, I’m going to replace one as a test. If this works out well, I shall buy one more set. I’ll have to motivate myself to install this one first.

Kashi granola bars were $3.30 off ($9.49 after discount). One box contains 35 bars, so each bar is about 27 Cents. You need these if you are an office worker. Keep them in your cubicle.
