I’ve been a Costco member for years and I got a deal for a cheap membership at SC. What are some items I should give a try? What are the best deals? What do you recommend for us to get the Sam’s Club experience?
Edit: thank you all for the suggestions! I activated scan and go on my app!
Hey everyone! I just launched a Figma plugin called Variate.
It started as a tool for paid social and email designers who constantly have to make dozens (or hundreds) of text variations manually.
The workflow is simple:
• Map your text layers (headline, subhead, CTA, etc.)
• Paste multiple text options
• Generate variations instantly
Originally I built it for ad production:
But after using it more, I realized it’s basically a large-scale text replacement engine inside Figma.
So people could also use it for:
Pretty much anything where the layout stays the same but the copy changes repeatedly.
I know Figma recently launched Buzz, which overlaps with some of this space, and honestly I think that’s exciting because it validates how painful repetitive production work actually is.
Where I think Variate differs is that it’s intentionally very lightweight and designer-focused.
Instead of generating full campaigns or moving into a separate workflow, it works directly inside your existing Figma files and layouts. It’s more about helping designers rapidly iterate on copy combinations while preserving the systems and compositions they already built.
The goal is to remove the repetitive copy-paste production layer that slows designers (and copywriters) down.
One of the biggest reasons I made it was because manually duplicating frames and replacing text over and over is one of those surprisingly exhausting tasks that quietly eats hours every week.
Would genuinely love feedback from other designers on:

Hey everyone — I recently submitted my first Figma plugin for review/publication a week ago and was curious what the average approval timeline looks like these days.
I’ve seen people mention anywhere from a couple days to multiple weeks, so I wanted to hear recent experiences from others who’ve submitted plugins recently.
A few questions:
For context, mine is a productivity plugin for generating creative variations for paid social workflows, so nothing super risky or unusual API-wise.
Would love to hear your experiences 🙏
