Somebody was actively pulling out so I waited for them before taking their spot. And no I didn’t steal the guy’s spot because he was further down and on the other side of the row which made it even more confusing. Maybe he meant to reverse 50ft and back into it?

And they were texting

This may be a dumb question, but since we're on the subject of Costco parking lots....
Who has the right of way in this intersection
https://goo.gl/maps/ELUUp4eKG8wJoe8X7

Does a car coming from the left have right of way or the car that is coming from the point of view of the camera? I have had a couple close calls going both ways so I just don't know anymore

All cars exiting must yield?

My Costco has indoor parking for like 500 cars or more, it’s an enormous warehouse. Is that normal? I’ve only been to one lol

Yeah it’s like a building for some warehouse company that went tits up two years in, Costco swept it up the next year. Let me see if I can find a pic, probably not.

The Waltham, MA Costco has parking underneath it. It's very tight and there's lots of concrete columns everywhere.

Nah this is cavernous almost spooky, single ground level but three stories high space. Wide parking spots, lane markers,etc. winter loading is a breeze. It was a warehouse so.

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.

This makes no sense. They ignored the stuff in front of them?

The cashier didnt push the button to make the conveyor belt convey the stuff to him and it was still down toward the other end.

As for the receipt checker not seeing the asparagus I dunno, it was on top of some other stuff but it was right there in plain sight.

I made a drawing of what happened



part (1) i have reached the checkout lane, there is a group of people in front of me who have a cart full of stuff but nothing on the conveyor belt. I place some small items (peaches, asparagus) on the conveyor belt at the far end, since I can't move any closer to the cashier because of the people, and leave the large items (TP, other stuff) in the cart.

part (2) the cashier moves my cart up, takes my costco membership card, scans the stuff in the cart, pushes a button, and the credit card reader beeps and I remove my card. He hands me my receipt and my costco membership card and I notice that the conveyor belt was not rolled forward with my other items. I inform him politely and he rings them up too in a seperate transaction (two receipts!).

part (3) I reach the receipt checker at the exit door, I hand her both receipts and explain why I have two. She looks at all the stuff and counts it, then asks whether I got asparagus. The asparagus is on the upper basket/kid seat part of the cart on top of the box of peaches, I point to it and say "yeah its right there" and she bids me a good day and I leave to my parking spot which was really close to the entrance (yeah!) and drive home.

Incredible, I hope you posted this on Costco.com/comments

Can't believe there's a Costco thread that I've missed for three years. I am an addict and buy nearly everything there. In the last month I've spent a fortune on new furniture and believe I've tipped past 50% of my home being Costco furnished.

(New sectional for Basement entertainment area after children destroyed the old sectional, also Costco)


(Said old sectional, now created for a dedicated Kids area to preserve the new one)

You have a very nice home, congrats. Love the deck/ yard too.

I may have posted this, but tire talk reminded me that Costco couldn’t replace my tires on the 4Runner. Stock 21” rims. Big, but still. I had to go somewhere else.

Costco in my area started requiring masks, this week... better late than never I guess.
