Do you shop at Costco?
Do you really save?
I am moving IYH to a new apartment after the chagim, a little bigger than where I live now and I will have more storage space BH. I am wondering if it pays to stock up at Costco. Is it really a savings?
Check out Jet.com
you definitely save if you have a large family & stock up in large quantity.
my question is how many people do this corrupt act of borrowing their friend/neighbors costco card & go shop with it? your costco membership card includes you, your wife & your single children living at home. thousands of people do this corrupt act & make a major chillul hashem. You dont think security sees it? each card has a picture of the costco member on it.
maybe i should open a g’mach “get a costco card for $2 & go shop & save & then return to the gemach. the entire town would come to the gemach R”L but that is pure dishonesty & corruption
What is your opinion on this issue? are you gonna say this is not a major chillul Hashem. i would like to hear your opinion
Hatzlacha
each card has a picture of the costco member on it.
If you enroll online or request a replacement card by phone or web, the card has no picture.
(A technical correction.)
thank you for that michshol
I shop at Costco and I think I save, but it really depends on one’s shopping habits and self discipline to not buy what isn’t really needed, which seems to be a bigger temptation at Costco than other stores.
the problem with costco (or sams club) in regard to being economical, is that it gives you a cheaper price for name brand stuff or similar. it is still cheaper, often, to buy generic at a regular store.
It’s often cheaper to clip coupons and buy locally during sales.
I buy a lot of Kirkland Signature (Costco’s store brand) items, and they have monthly coupons, and I try to stock up on those items (to the extent they allow).
