***DESIGN TIP FOR YOUR OFFICE*** Keep furniture and paint colors neutral. Use your rug, throw pillows, and a few decor items to bring color into your space. Those are easy and cheap to change out if you want to change them later. You dont have to make your rug color super bright, but do use it to bring colors into your office that will make you smile when you see it. 😊

Yes, when Costco first opens it's insane, it peaks again about 3-5:30pm (I assume the after work witching hour) I am fortunate to live super close to one so I can literally hit it right before close, ours recently got self check out and I never have to wait.
