I definitely miss when my family had membership there. Yes it absolutely looked like a warehouse with how high things were stacked, but the products are worth it and the free samples were always good to kit me.
Costco is amazing, but you go there to buy what they have, not what you necessarily want like other stores. Every product they carry is tested for quality before they buy, they only buy products that they can obtain a good value for. So you don't have to worry about anything you buy, even if it sucks, they have a no question return policy. If the brand you wanted isn't at Costco, it's likely because the alternative they stock is better.
We did a case study about Costco and the amount of product and supply chain research they do is crazy.
I read a write up in consumer reports about profit margins for various stores, and Costco had consistently lower profit margins than the competition. They make most of their money on membership fees.
Well they also pay their employees well, or at least used to. I remember being in the job hunt like almost 2 decades ago and they were paying 2.5x minimum wage for their lowest cashier/cart person positions.
I just looked it up and they haven't kept up with inflation unfortunately... Although neither has some of the minimum wages.
They don’t carry the hot fries chips 😭
"kit" 😭 tiny fuzzlord liked the snackies. i think i'm manic
