Costco's famous "trick" of hot dog and soda for $1.50 has been a success, with wide-spread acclaim. Also, their freshly broiled checken for $4.99 is a winner.
 
I don't mind the mixed and unlabeled isles so much, but enjoy visiting Costo as a social event, with lots of kids riding in carts, electric carts for handicapped, and people watching. Cost of Costco does include a $60 membership card to get that 3% discount. Price of gas at Costco is okay.

If OK means the best price in town.

On making my will, with the help of a volunteer legal service, I visited the Salvation Army local office and I think learned that:
1) SA will hold a copy of your will;
2) SA will not act as your will executor, normally;
3) SA will act as your executor if you donate all your possessions to them. Not sure what possessions are required for SA to act as executor.
 
I did invest in a cremation policy with Alaska Cremation Society, but since learned that they require an insurance policy that will act on your behalf and won't return the $1,200 paid, so watch out for that.
