I don't understand all the love for Costco here. I recently rejoined and now remember why I canceled in the first place. I recently had a baby, so I joined for the diapers. Well, on my first trip, I learned they don't carry P or N sizes. Now that my baby is big enough for size 1, of course they are out of Huggies in size 1. But they have the Kirkland brand, which is a crapshoot in general.
I used to love some canned mushrooms they had, then they just stopped carrying them. I loved calzones they stopped carrying 5 years ago. Sometimes you can get Tide or kombucha there, sometimes not. Kirkland products can be great, then they suddenly change them. And nothing makes my blood boil like a line to leave the store for the receipt check while you have to fight off the Lennox, phone, and solar sales people.
At least my neighborhood King Soopers is consistent with stocking products and keeping their store brands the same.

Once the items are paid for and past the register, I find it despicable that anyone feels the right to inspect my belongings. (I realize it's in the membership contract, and it is the reason I quit using Costco.)
- 1123581321 7y agoI feel the same way; I know it’s a bit irrational but it’s really annoying and leads me to minimize trips. I especially don’t like that they will insist it has nothing to do with LP and is only to make sure shoppers saved as much as they were supposed to; I resent being lied to so blatantly. Sadly, this practice will continue to push the transition to online ordering.
