## Resource

Episode #13 of Life of Dad takes a trip to everyone's favorite warehouse store as hosts Tom Riles, Lee Kimbrell, and Mike James dive into the world of Costco. From family shopping trips and bulk buying to executive memberships, impulse purchases, food court favorites, and the things that somehow always end up in the cart, the guys share the funny realities of shopping for a growing family. Along the way, they swap stories about the surprisingly practical things dads convince themselves to buy, debate whether Costco's biggest deals are actually worth it, and laugh through conversations about everything from rotisserie chickens and gold bars to the little moments that turn an ordinary shopping trip into a family tradition. As always, the episode is filled with stories from the Life of Dad community, relatable parenting moments, and the unexpected tangents that make everyday life as a dad so entertaining. Funny, relatable, and packed with the kind of conversations every parent has had while wandering the warehouse aisles, Episode #13 is a reminder that sometimes a simple Costco run becomes a family adventure—and somehow you always leave with more than you planned.
