So I was shopping with my wife today and I said "oh let's see if my membership helps out." So we went and added the same item to each of our carts, and to our surprise, the total was the same! So what is it exactly that I'm paying for in this membership if the items "original price" is higher for me than it is for regular shoppers?

Pass on the fridge. I have the same one and it will freeze the ones in the back if you don't leave a space between the back of the fridge and your drinks. I can only fill it about 2/3 of the way or it doesn't work very well. I've considered adding a fan inside, and I've even powered a USB fan off a battery pack and it made a big difference.

Technology connections on YouTube did a video on mini fridges a while back. He focused on the peculiarities of one specific model, but one of the things he did to try addressing some of the issues with uneven cooling was add a fan, and he found that it didn't really help and made things worse in other ways.

IIRC, the fridge was designed expecting that certain parts would be cooler than others and accounted for that in how the compressor cycled on and off, but with the added airflow those parts stayed warmer than expected so the compressor never shut off.

This fridge very well might be different, and maybe the fan is helping in your case, but you might want to check that video out so you have some things to look out for in case it's causing other issues that you may not be thinking about.

Only Technology Connections could get me to watch a one hour video about a fridge.
