Seems like many goods (and even categories ie: bread) don't have a 'usual' spot and will be moved around regularly. Is there a plan/design behind those reorgs, or is just 'whelp, no more room for bread here, guess we'll swap this entire aisle with the next one'.
Who makes those decisions?

I think it's to make you browse the rest of the goods looking for what you want in hopes that you'll see something you hadn't noticed and buy it too.

Like every store does this to some degree

DIRECTIVE 236: Promote pro-social values
Every Costco throws a dart at a board weekly and based on where it lands, that's where they move the bread, the grapes, etc. Lame attempt to mess with Costco speedrunners but I'm undeterred.

It's actually to make me spend an hour searching for Stroopwafels / Biscotti then leave in despair because they don't tell anyone when the quit stocking something for no reason.

Sounds like that might be a management decision. The Costco here has never moved stuff around significantly, I could navigate it with my eyes closed.

That’s stealing, you should return to costco and report this error

It’s not stealing if the door checker approved it.

Absolutely devastated by this, I use this stuff every night in my peanut butter banana bedtime smoothie. It blends so much better!

I remember someone mentioned they thought pbfit powder was going away: i think they just changed the packaging. I saw it today and it was in a bag instead of a jar.

Sam's club doesn't put carrageenan (seaweed) in it's chickens, which allows me to eat them without tummy distress. Just FYI if you find Costco chicken incompatible.

lol at the big bad bitchmade Waltons realizing Sam's Club after 20+ years of trying and failing to do better than Costco in Washington, closed every single one without notice and left the entire state in 2018

The sad shell of the Sam's Club down the street from me, sitting vacant with the faded diamond logo still showing their failure for 5 years after, finally got turned into a Home Depot several months ago

Has this thread already talked about how delicious the pink Kirkland brand bottled coconut water in the refrigerated section is? I always get the boxed stuff as a lil' hangover treat but my husband got the pink juice yesterday and I'm freaking out about how good it is.

CORGO, THE DESTROYER

Fun Shoe
Need to go to the grocery store and Costco this week, but I only have time for one tomorrow. Might hit Costco before dinner tomorrow and bring home a rotisserie chicken and big Caesar salad for the family, then hit the grocery store on Tuesday.

While high in fat, nuts are a “safe” food for me. I roast the Kirkland Signature raw pecans then add them to the Kirkland Signature Unsalted Deluxe Mixed Nuts, then finally add some Kirkland Signature Lightly Salted Macadamia Nuts. The hint of salt from the macadamias is enough for me, and the variety means I don’t get bored. It’s like $100 in nuts but it lasts for quite a while.
