Costco let me down. I buy my fully loaded cart of stuff. Wait as the door person checks my receipt and my stuff. She informs me that I bought two of an item but the cashier only charged me for one. She looks at me like I'm trying to steal. I reply "ok, what do I do now?" I have to drive my cart all the way back, and they ring me up at an un-used register, while everyone is staring at me. Look at this guy trying to steal from Costco!!! Then I get to wait in line again for the receipt person to check my poo poo. Costco, you've let me down.

Man corrupts Costco as an institution, but Costco itself is infallible and divine.

AreWeDrunkYet posted:For the 5-8 gallons I usually fill up, any sort of line for gas is an immediate nope. Might be a different story if you have a giant SUV and drain the tank all the way every time. People at the Costco I go to still haven't figured out that the hoses are set up so you can use any pump. I love seeing lines of 2 or 3 cars while there are also open pumps.

The balance is complete: I once got all the way home and couldn't find 2 bottles of margarita mix on my receipt. They had never scanned them in my cart. Sorry you got the bad side of the coin

The double charged me on some cantaloupe a couple weeks ago and the receipt checker caught it. I had to stand there at the door for 10 minutes while they sent a runner with my card to refund it. I guess I'm glad I didn't pay for something I didn't get though.

Anyone used costco travel for theme parks? My wife really wants to go to Universal in Orlando and was thinking about booking it through them. We looked at it when we had our honeymoon in NZ, but just decided to get tickets and rent a camper ourselves since it was cheaper even though it didn't include as much stuff.

take me you ANIMAL posted:Anyone used costco travel for theme parks? My wife really wants to go to Universal in Orlando and was thinking about booking it through them. They also sell admission ticket packages for theme parks by themselves by the gift-card area that are probably about the same price so you aren't getting a discount on admission vs those. A theme park vacation seems pretty easy to setup yourself but i could see the appeal in something like say, going to bahamas via costco travel vacation package with the kids or something where you absolutely don't even want to think about logistics at all and everything included is what you want, and that's perfectly OK. The rental car service makes sense the most to use yeah e: also Orlando Studios really sucked when i went in 2001 and was super boring, go to disneyworld instead. maybe its changed but what i've heard its they're mostly doubly down on "'sit in a chair 3d simulators and get shaken around a little bit with a crappy movie tie-in" rides Xaris fucked around with this message at 05:02 on Jul 15, 2019 |

Do you people with receipt checker stories only buy a handful of items at a time or something? I've never had one of them do more than give my cart the most cursory of glances and quickly swipe a highlighter across my receipt while staring dully behind me at the line of carts stretching to eternity.

It really depends on the person doing the receipt checking. If you have someone who takes the job seriously they'll usually just check for expensive items and if any duplicate charges on your receipt match up with what's in your cart. But sometimes you'll get a 70+ year old person checking your receipt who just doesn't give a poo poo and will just blindly swipe the highlighter on your receipt. The receipt checkers basically want to make sure the cashier didn't gently caress up, because like 95% of the time when they have to send you back for something it's not even your fault. And anytime that happens they take note of the cashier who made the mistake, and if it happens too many times with that person they'll get in trouble.

I buy alcohol maybe six times a year and the receipt checkers always check the wine to make sure I didn't swap a cheap bottle for an expensive one. I must look like a guy who steals only expensive wines.

Went to Costco. Looked for Bitchin Sauce. Forgot to actually find out if my Costco actually had some. Felt stupid. Bought some Kirkland Rum and a pair of 32° Mens joggers. All in all decent trip!

If you have a Raley's/Bel Air nearby, they usually stock it too. Normally in the fancy cheese section. My church doesn't stock it so I had to go that route.

Y’all want to know the secret to stopping the receipt checkers and their bullshit? Look them straight in the eye as you approach. Slowly insert the receipt into your mouth as you are maybe 5-10 feet away. When you are in arms reach start chewing with big overstated movements. Break eye contact, walk out. Spit out receipt and throw it away. They log your purchases on your account and you won’t need the receipt ever again. Works every time, all the time.

I once bought a single pair of socks and got a dog + refill and when i got to the door I handed the checker the receipt for the dog and she kinda just looked at the socks and me and then just marked the thing off and didn't say anything

JK Fresco posted:I always use costco travel to book rental cars. It's just cheaper Used Costco to rent at Budget, in Las Vegas. They had two lines, one for walk-ups, and one for Costco customers. "Woohoo, I thought, we get an express line." Nope. They kept the walk-up line clear, and pulled someone from the Costco line when there was a free agent. I stood there waiting 70 minutes for the 6 people in front of me to get served, while maybe 20 people were walk-ups. I guess they know we already paid and can go gently caress ourselves, or something. And then they crammed insurance on my final bill, which I explicitly declined. Costco customer service took care of it for me... but goddam. Don't rent a car from Budget in Las Vegas, through Costco or otherwise.,

I went to cost company the other day to get some stuff, like 5 things, and some of it I left in the cart and some i put on the checkout conveyor belt. The cashier just checked out the stuff in the cart but not the stuff on the belt so I was like "stuff on there is also mine" so he had to ring it up and I got 2 receipts! I got a slice of pizza and then when I was going out the door I gave the recept checker both receipts and explained the situation and she was like "did you get asparagus?" and i pointed to it and was like "yeah there it is" and she said "alright have a nice day!" and I left. That's my cost company receipt checker story thanks for reading.

I went to BJs yesterday and literally every person in front of me was frantically ripping coupons and the cashier had problems scanning their poo poo so just 3 people took 30 minutes to do. No food court either. Absolutely trash tier.
