Bad news if you’re mooching off of someone else’s Costco membership: The retail giant is cracking down.
When you enter Costco, you need to show your membership card to an employee to shop. Costco membership cards are non-transferable, but the company allows members to give a second household card to one other person in their home. Anyone with a card can bring up to two guests to the club during each visit, the company stipulates.
But Costco has noticed that non-members have been sneaking in with membership cards that don’t belong to them — particularly since Costco expanded self-checkout.
Costco recently started asking for shoppers’ membership cards along with a photo ID at the self-checkout registers, the same policy as regular checkout lanes, to crack down. “We don’t feel it’s right that non-members receive the same benefits and pricing as our members,” Costco said in announcing the change.
And now, Costco is testing out a system that requires members to scan their membership cards at the store entrance — instead of just flashing the card to employees. Shoppers have spotted the new scanners at a store in Washington State and posted photos on Reddit.
I don’t see how what I said and what you claim are at odds or how anyone is gaslighting you. No one is gaslighting anyone. You’re just being dishonest.
If it’s worthwhile for even a single person, then your initial statement was wrong. I never said anything about a family of 2, you did.
My initial statement about my moral stance on corporate interests was my opinion. Opinions can’t be wrong you dense fuckwit.
directly quoting your comment is “being dishonest”. Right, enjoy your Costco card lmao.
You quoted it and then claimed I said something I didn’t. It is dishonest. Get outta here with that dumb “bet” shit. Use your words.
This you?
Lastly, “Outta” isn’t a word, use REAL words like ‘bet’.
