June 30, 20232 yr Was at costco 3 times today. Yes, a woman was involved. They were checking cards at self checkout as you got in line. Why 3 times? We were early for her dental appointment, and stopped at costco for gas as the tank was below 1/4. She says we've got a half-hour to kill, so let's go in and walk around. Buy a few things. Go to her appointment. On the way back, she wants to stop to buy cold fridge and freezer stuff. Whatever, she gave me a blowjob this morning, so I'm OK with going again. While we are there, she notices a rug she likes, so we bring the groceries home, put them away, and then back to costco in my truck for the rug. 4 hours ago, UnivTex34 said: We got checked at the south Austin store last week. Just waved my app at her. going in? getting the store is never an issue. It's checkout where they are cracking down.

Every time as we near the entrance I make my son go fetch a cart, which is on the other side of the entrance/exit. There's too much chaos for the door host to see us together. The other three of us immediately enter the building and flash the card, leaving him alone to walk in with his cart and no card, lol. Hasn't been stopped yet

June 30, 20232 yr Costco’s entire net profit is attributable to membership fees. So they pretty much have to crack down, or become a charity. https://money.com/costco-doesnt-make-much-money-selling-you-groceries-heres-how-it-really-earns-billions-a-year/?amp=true

June 30, 20232 yr Just got checked as I was waiting in line. The person behind me got nabbed. Costco Employee: "Ma'am can I see your membership card with photo?" Shopper: "Here it is. It's my son's card, but I use it." CE: "Do you have a card with your photo and membership info." S: " It's my son's card, but I use it." CE: "Not no mo. Go put back that pallet of post-it notes and that 50lb sack of organic cheese puffs. Then GTFO." Squib inching toward the self checkout.
July 2, 20232 yr Went thru the self checkout today and an employee was checking everyone on the ID thing. I asked and she said about 10% are using someone else’s Costco card. Just more anecdotal evidence.

July 3, 20232 yr My wife and I went to Costco Bunker Hill and at self check-out, I decided to go to bathroom. It’s my card and she got denied even after telling them I’m just taking a piss. Had to let one person ahead of her and wait on me so they are getting strict about it apparently.

Right around $200, I think, a little less than $5 a pound. I didn't have to special order it, but they only had two in their freezer and I got the smaller one. The business centers have great meat like specialty roasts, and some other whole animals like lamb and goat. I think that lots of small restaurants must shop there. BTW, the little fellow met his fate this weekend. Delicious!

July 3, 20232 yr Popular Post No ID check at Cedar Park yesterday, but parking lot and store traffic was fucked. The lack of self-awareness amongst patrons was even shittier than usual. Anyone who blocks the aisle with their cart and family needs their membership revoked, then taken out back and beaten with a 5 gallon bucket of pickles.

You would love Costco Mexico: Must bring at least 5 family members with you, including an abuela in a wheelchair or walker Stop with entire family in every aisle to talk, make calls, breakdance, whatever you feel like doing, as long as it's stationary When actually pushing your cart, you must push it down the middle of the aisle so no one can get around you. Waiting in checkout lines (or any line) is optional. If the line is too long, just approach from the side and push your cart in front of anyone who leaves a 2 foot gap. Act surprised and horrified when other shoppers have the gall to tell you to go to the back of the line. You can also ignore them and pretend to take phone calls. When checking out, each family member should pay separately for various items in the cart. Pay with coins, but don't began looking for them in your bag until you have seen the total and argued about the price of at least 7 items.

July 14, 20232 yr Picked these up on a whim. Takes 10 minutes to heat em up the oven or air fryer. They arent as good as fresh grilled in a grill basket, but sometimes you dont want to buy/chop 5 different types of veggies and fire up the charcoal grill. I guess some costcos also carry a similar product with brussels sprouts, but I havent had those. Been heating em up in the same foil pan as this chicken (also Costco) for a reasonably healthy, quick dinner. That chicken is pretty solid for salads/pastas as well if you're in a rush.
July 15, 20232 yr The provincial vegetables are Solid. I’m irritated, the Costco at bunker hill moved all the nuts and many of the chips to the front right by the entrance, and in the process don’t seem to carry Hilo chips, Blue Diamond Chile Lime almonds, or the baked edamame my wife likes anymore. Irritating.

Bigger store plus gas and they are not crazy busy like the Austin stores makes for a much better experience.

July 16, 20232 yr The obliviousness of the average Costco shopper is astounding it takes all I have not to put people in the wall like we’re at Talladega bring the entire family, walk five wide down the aisle slowly, more to the left side and by “walk” I mean “mope” camp out in the middle of the aisle, with the cart perpendicular to the aisle, waiting for some free sample, surrounded by three generations
July 16, 20232 yr I haven't been shopping at CostCo much as our household dwindles. Unfortunately, I need to provide Gatorade or equivalent for 200 people this week. Is CostCo the go-to choice? I would think the big flatbed carts alone would make it easier, and if they have a Kirkland brand . . . is this the right angle?

Every Costco is different and has some different shit, but I've never seen a Kirkland brand gatorade there. They do have Gatorade and Gatorade zero, however. Not Sure why Gatorade Zero isn't showing up in the website search, but I was just there on Friday and they had it in two different sizes. Additionally, not sure how this stacks up to prices at HEB or whatnot, but they do have it.
