The BEST way to fuck over Costco is return stuff.

I would say 80% of the non food stuff I buy i don't use after 90 days.

Buy stuff from Costco, use it, when you get bored with it, return it.

They get their money back from the manufacturer when you return stuff, it's part of the contract if you wanna sell your stuff there. Manufacturer then goes onto resell them as refurbished.

They are a membership based company and they don't make the majority of their money from the sales. They have good products to make you buy a membership. That's their entire business model. Hell, they sell most Kirkland products at a loss.

I used to work at Costco and they'll do just about anything to stop you from cancelling your membership. Think of them like a gym rather than a Walmart. Membership sign-ups and cancellations are the two main metrics that govern your local Costco.

I got a job there right after highschool. At the end of the three day orientation class they passed out union membership forms to the ~10 of us in the class. Most of us said we didn’t want to join a union, they said that’s fine, you won’t work here then.

Fucking sucks to be broke in a blue state.

We'll see what they say when I cancel mine due to fake virus mask enforcements
