I think there's a lot of labeling that could happen from the data, and thats what advertisers want more of right?
- balderdash 2y agoI guess, but I feel like Costco is not a sole source shopping experience but rather a supplemental one. I try and buy my gas there since it’s definitely cheaper, I do t think you could infer a great deal from my driving habits by my purchase history

- OptionOfT 2y agoWe shop at Costco every week. And 2-3 times per month we need to go somewhere else to get garlic / bananas (our Costco has Del Monte bananas which... I don't like). Our previous one near Thousand Oaks had Dole which were significantly better. But overall, meat, lettuce, etc comes from Costco.

Memberships probably also have age and gender info which is useful for tracking against purchases. The membership model also means it would be really easy for them to add certain allowances for data collection (eg, in-store surveillance tracking to see where certain age groups go in the store and where they linger and what they look at.)
