Soda is often a loss leader for supermarkets. Kroger might mark 12 packs down to 3 for 14 or something. That'll get people in the door where they buy other high margin items hopefully. The only loss leader Costco has is the rotisserie chicken I think.

Costcos entire business model is “break even on merchandise, make profits on memberships and services”

How much do I cum? The answer might surprise you!

bought hot italian sausages last costco trip and i didnt notice that the expiry date was literally the next day. didnt notice that they were bad until i went to use them and they smelled pretty gross. im pretty good about checking expiry dates and such but the one time i didnt. im sure costco will make it right though, took pics of the receipt and the expiry and all that.

Re: Soda Chat

It's weird how pricing is these days. I just got a 30 pack of soda from Costco in Japan for 1300 yen ($9.60 usd). The hotdog is only 180 yen or $1.33.

My stupid rear end bought a package of Italian sausage and peppers from there that was swelled up like a football, practically bursting out of its outer cardboard label.

I was like “wow, this one is super stuffed and has got to have a bunch more food in it” and when I told my wife about it the next day as I was getting ready to prepare it, she was like “no dipshit, somebody didn’t refrigerate it properly and it’s swelling with gas because it’s rotten. If you eat that, you’re probably going to wish you were dead, assuming it doesn’t kill you outright.”

Anyway, I guess the lesson here is that Costco sucks at sausage.

I name this haircut "The Sad Rhino".
I live right across the street from church… as in we go there every other day and carry one of the insulated Costco bags you get when you sign up for auto renewal. We almost never get a cart either. Most of the Costco employees know us and say hi and/or ask where my partner is when I go alone. As you. An imagine, we have the routine down.

Every time one of the Costco peeps tries to help on self-checkout, it always makes things take longer. It’s really annoying if someone knew thinks they can help out. That said, I don’t blame them. We live in the ghetto part of a rich neighborhood of olds. I’ve seen them pull up with a cart to self-checkout and literally wait for someone to scan everything for them. You wouldn’t think someone on a mobility scooter would go to self-checkout but you’d be wrong.

Most church trips are a blessing though.

And we don’t get a ton of special treatment at the door when they check the receipt. I’m actually impressed even though it sucks to have to put down a shoulder bag with kitty litter and vinegar weighing 60lbs so they can check it. Meh, they got a job to do.

A Costco employee told me the door checkers are there to help ensure that the customer doesn’t overpay for an item being rung up twice or something. She wasn’t particularly pleased when I laughed and said bull-loving-poo poo.

Like two trips later, we had an issue where an Apple Watch we bought wasn’t actually in the store room, so it got canceled out and a different colored watch was wrung up instead on a new receipt. loving door guy stopped just short of calling a defcon-1 emergency until it was explained to him by us and then by the storeroom employee why the receipts were separate. Even then I got the sense he still distrusted us as we left the building.

Who are these mystical receipt checkers who actually read the receipts that closely? The checkers in New England glance toward my receipts then look away in disgust as if they were told to watch me pee for a drug test.

Also for soda chat, I switched like 5 years ago to mostly those flavor water squirt things like Mio. Definitely cheaper than soda but I don't think I've ever seen Costco carry anything like those. It would be dope if I could buy some 1 gallon industrial drum of the stuff so I have enough for the rest of my life.

yeah it's a bullshit PR line about how it's actually about helping customers.

in my case, the guy was nice and apparently this self checkout lady does this a lot because he knew what happened immediately :rolleyes: but I absolutely hate that all the warehouse clubs act like all members may be stealing

like what are they going to do if I just walk out? I have my receipt, I paid for everything, gonna call the cops cause I didn't get a little highlighter mark? dumb dumb dumb
