"My wife told me to pick up some milk... and I got a little something for me too!"Several months ago, I entered a Costco cartoon contest. The rules were simple. Do something funny that is obviously taking place in a Costco store. I go to Costco all the time... and I draw cartoons... so I thought I would take a shot at it. My wife has a true story about seeing a friend of ours walking out of Costco one day with a gallon of milk and a huge flat screen TV. We thought this was a funny contrast, so I turned it into this cartoon. As is my habit, I put this off till the night before the contest ended. But I whipped this out and I think I sent it to the proper email address. I hope I did anyway. My INSTINCT told me that I was going to be the winner of a cool Costco gift card. But my instinct was wrong... very wrong... sigh...
So... what do you think? Is this cartoon funny? Is my Funny-O-Meter out of whack? Tell me what you think. One lucky comment, selected at random, will win a free Snugglie, a set of Ginsu steak knives and one of the failing US automakers (your choice)

I think it's perfect! What a funny story! Are you sure you didn't win? Or at least win a runner up or something? Bummer about that part of it.
I think it's funny!
But maybe Costco people see this scene too often... :)
Very funny cartoon, will the ginsu cut thro' my shoe??
Ehehehee! Very funny idea!
I think it's very funny, but maybe it was too true for the Costco folks to laugh at ;) Nice cartoon!
That will teach your wife. Great illustration.
Ha! This is right on the funny mark!
I love peculiar pairings, especially those observed from real life.
This is hilarious! I laughed out loud - great job!
hey doug, i think its funny... i once saw someone buying tires at a superwalmart and paying for their toilet paper at the same time in the auto dept.
