    You can still order the sheet cake at will, even customize it for your event but have to give them 24 hr notice. I used Costco for my wedding and some guests said it was the best cake they ever had. I find the “ Amazon attitude” amusing, people thinking everything can be accessed instantly, at whim with no prior planning like buying a large cake.

    by far the hardest part of fasting is the boredom. If you've never done a multiday fast, you have no idea the enormous amount of your daily time is spent thinking about, preparing, or eating food. Depending on your lifestyle, it can be really hard to fill all that extra free time. If you want a fast to be easy, start it when you are very busy

    1) I love the limiting panic buying such as loungewear...
    loungewear? does that mean there's going to be a bunch of people quote unquote working from home... 😂
    love that one.
    2) I love how they're so concerned about you spreading covid that they supposedly stop selling it because they wanted to not encourage large gatherings around their cakes yeah that's BS so now when you order the cake you have to do it in person I thought in person kills people remember can't vote in person can't work in person remember in person kills but now you need to do it in person with their form another BS move... 😂
    got to love this millennial generation they make really good supervisors and management... safeism the new ISM that exists.

      Everything at Costco is huge and requires a LOT of people to consume it. So I have a hard time believing covid was the reason they stopped selling them. I believe that by selling smaller cakes one has to buy more smaller cakes and altogether cost more. Everything is not political.
