So I guess I gotta have dedicated cooking clothes now? Damn.

Gotta say. I'd like to learn these things through comments over here rather than learn them from actual life experiences.

Keep them coming. What else do I need to know?
Yes, brother. Never wear the cooking dress out. It stinks. I think you will learn other things one by one...!!!! :p :p :p

you might already know this, but getting a costco membership as a new immigrant is super worth it. like, i kick myself for not getting a costco membership early on and using it to buy good quality non-consumables and gas at discounted prices. like for example, i just bought a chef's knife from costco for $90, and its listed at $135 on amazon. i bought a vacuum with freaking headlights so you can clean the inside of closets for only $129 there too. you can get kitchen appliances, clothes, and some furniture there too

Most people have visiting mountains, museums, and hiking trails on their wish list. I'd like to visit the biggest car parking of a empty Walmart or Costco. You don't how big of a deal that is for someone who has lived in a congested place like I have.

oh yeah it was a big deal for me too. i come from a country with 7000 people per sq km, so I know how liberating it feels to be here in canada

And Costco provides best customer service. Flexible return policy and the TV's comes with extra warranty so does some of the Electronics.

Only do this if you get a car or if you have a large family. The economics doesn't work out if you're single/couple and don't have a car.

I don't have Costco membership yet because they don't have good deals at the store in Regina. Maybe I just haven't looked closely enough.

Your first Costco, Walmart, Ikea, and other big store visits will be a good experience.

Costco deals are same everywhere. And tires and Batteries in Costco are the cheapest (plus quality). If you purchase tires from them, it will be cheaper to change your winter and summer tires. Also, oil change is cheaper in Costco.

$120 and also Costco citi credit card for that 4% cash back. I am sharing it with my sibling so our cash back pays for the membership. We are living in two different state (Kinda cheating and being cheap....lol). I am gonna just carry the same membership to Canada.

No they aren't. My sister lives in Ottawa and she always sends me stuff about deals at Costco (mostly groceries and kiddies stuff) but when I go check the website for my local store, it almost always say the sales are not available in my province.

Also, they don't carry some of the items my sister can find in ON.
