My local Costco was robbed at closing time just the other day. Three suspects came in with ski masks to do a smash and grab on the glass jewelry display. The noble Costco employees responded by tackling one of the suspects and detaining him until police came. Would a Sam's Club employee do the same?

Joke is on them. Most of the diamonds in the display cases are fake.

They must have been after the BB-8 Sphero toy I saw in there then.

It was actually a complete distraction. While the one set of guys were going after the fake jewelry, the REAL crew was making off with sacks full of delicious all-beef hot dogs, chicken bakes, and pizzas.

They even smashed and grabbed the onion container :(

Why didn't the receipt checker do something to stop them? WHY!?!

Because Costco will just make more. There'll always be $1.50 quarter-pound all beef hot dogs and 20oz beverages with unlimited refills for the people.

except me when my costco is revamping their food court :(

I ate the hot dog too quickly to snag a pic, but got a shot from the parking lot as proof. Trip alone was worth it for the hotdog and soda :burger:

:confused: costco...food court...revamped? and they don't have a temporary hot dog station or something? A COSTCO WITHOUT HOT DOGS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AFTER SHOPPING?!? What the gently caress is that garbage? That sounds like some Sam's Club horse poo poo :bahgawd:

I'm the fat hispanic family that parks their carts right next to each free sample section, blocking the entire aisle while my 3 fats kids wait several minutes for the next snack to get cooked and cut up so they can take them all.

The area near the frozen aisles is a loving nightmare of blender demos and fatties just parking their carts wherever and impeding people from doing their shopping so they can wait on samples and shove them down their mouths. That's why you need to just park your cart away from that area and venture in by yourself, grab the stuff you need, and get out. It's like hopping in and out of the tank in Blaster Master

I dunno if I've ever gotten a sample from the frozen section, there is without fail fat family sitting on top of it and just taking the whole tray whenever they come out.

I do get enjoy the samples in their fresh section/ones where they have like whole grain toast or w/e.

Of course there were some fat people, but they plop Costco right near the suburbs and area on Oahu where the richer white folks live. But even the fat Hawaiians had a thing called courtesy and manners that kept them from blocking aisles just to inhale samples.

Also, the Costco food court there was outside and you just walked up to a window to order, you never have to even enter the Costco. Really convenient

Everyone here in the PNW knows Costco is a privilege, not a right, and acts accordingly. I have seen many rear end in a top hat customers in my life but never there.
Edit- And the Kirkland Costco has terrible parking.

i bought the Kirkland Steak Cut jerky on Sunday for the first tim, and now it's all gone. nothing sadder than an empty bag of jerky.

it was real good though. much better than that 'chefs cut' poo poo i bought from costco a month ago which was just gummy sweet garbage

also god drat jerky teeth. i think even after vigorously flossing im still feeling jerky bits between my teeth
