If you're willing to fork out an additional 75 cents you can get a full meal at Tortilla Soup. You get a soup, meal of the day (with side of beans), desert and, a drink for $5.75

If anyone needs to sneak into Costco for a quick lunch meet me at the Membership desk and I'll let you in. Anyone at the desk will let you in we dont give shit.


I Salinas the Costco has the food joint outside, so you don't even need membership at all.


The El centro Costco is the only one that has the food court inside. it's to damn hot to eat outside in the Imperial Valley, unless if your drinking a beer with your meal. Wink

I'll be going to the Costco in Salinas for my hotdog and Coke from now on.


Just travel to SD. Plus, according to one caleciano there's a Costco that allegedly serves nachos.


Costco no longer sells nachos. The El Centro Costco was one of the last warehouses, if not the last, to stop selling nacho last year.

Sinco I don't reside in the area I'm going to have to describe my cheap-ass meals when I was a broke college student.

There is a japanese joint in Berkeley called Japanese Snacks (which everyone called Jap Snacks) that would sell you one of those chinese take-home boxes full of rice and teriyaki sauce for $1.25. Believe me, at 11PM when you were hungry and didn't have money it was a gourmet meal to me.

I think the greatest meal on a low budget is the date scene in Half Baked. Start off with change, end the day with a couple of bucks. That's how cheap eating should be done.
