Yes, please give us prices. I’ve noticed that occurring in other stores as well. Line goes, “Put in cart to see price”. I don’t care for those tactics. Suppose also, that I would like to do comparison shopping on a particular item, the price would also be a factor.

Honest people will always be inconvenienced by the dishonest. Unfortunately for us honest individuals, dishonesty is on the increase.

Provide Handheld scanners for customers to use at self-checkout. It makes no sense to lift items out of a cart to scan then put them back in the cart. I like to load items with the bar code up and hand scan which is faster and easier as I do at Sams.

I think that only members should shop at Costco for all services and products. Why else have a membership? Yes, it takes a couple more SECONDS to confirm my membership, but I think that is not cumbersome. I appreciate that Costco is trying to maintain the membership barriers and if someone wants to eat at the snack bar or shop, they can BUY a membership. thanks for a great store.

I don’t mind the changes and it is fair that we members that pay for memberships should have the exclusive rights to purchases and nonmembers need to purchase a membership if they want to shop at Costco period.

I’ve been a member for over 20 years. I agree prices are getting pretty high but I still love shopping here. Finally have a store less than 30 minutes from my house. 99% of their employees are very nice. I’ve also gotten rebates for much more than the annual fee because of the amount of money I’ve spent using my Citi Visa and before that with the Amex card. Also appreciate the top tier gas.

Love the quality products Costco sells at good prices. Not interested in cheap goods at cheap prices

I’ve been a Costco member for more than 20 years. My local warehouse has been plagued with hoards of non-members who clog up the checkout lines for years. Members have ALWAYS been required to present their card to employees to enter the warehouse. They installed entry scanners six months ago. It takes two seconds to use the card scanners. (It does NOT take as long as a customs line at the airport.) The card scanning saves time versus being stuck in line behind non-members or card sharers who muck up checkout for every member waiting in line behind them. Don’t have a membership card of your own? Go shop at Walmart. The membership cards BELONG to Costco. Period. Read the membership agreement. It can be revoked at Costco’s discretion.

I like them checking the membership at the door. I think all stores need to adopt this rule. With so many shoplifters and undesirable people entering and currently in the country it’s like one of the few places left that you’re not watching your back/ bag every few minutes.

I work at Costco in one location that is in Anchorage Alaska, I honestly think that showing off the membership is a good idea because a lot of people that are not members were stealing or try to steal from are warehouse. I know is a inconvenience for some of the members but also help us to get a little bit more control of who’s coming at our warehouse.

It's rampant. They shove items in their clothes,. I've watched shoplifters roll chart loads of items out of stores while the employees asking to see a receipt. They just ignore them and keep going. Most retailers do not allow their employees to physically detain a thief today do to liability.

Been a member for over 30 yrs. I applaud the added security. As retirees we don't purchase as much as before, but many essentials are cherished.

Costco makes much of its profit from membership fees. The $60/year fee seems reasonable to me; if one qualifies for the Citi Visa Costco membership/credit card, and a person takes advantage of the 4% off gasoline; the 3% off restaurants and travel; the 2% off Costco in-store and online---it seems to be to be a real bargain. (Other discounts: car buying, checks, travel, car rentals and many more.)

New policies on showing card are welcomed and needed.

I don’t mind the extra scanning and/or looking/checking membership cards. We pay a fee to shop there and it’s not fair/okay for people who didn’t pay to come and get the discount we get. It’s like any other warehouse. It’s what makes Costco like any other warehouse different from other grocery stores. I don’t understand why people complain about paying a fee to shop there if they don’t like the fee. Then don’t pay and shop somewhere where there isn’t a fee. Also those are the rules we agreed too. As far as prices, it does suck a little bit but it’s to be expected after so long. They can’t keep the prices down when it’s going up literally everywhere else, even with the manufacturers. They’d lose money and go out of business then we’d all be sad and upset and would have rather paid a bit more then never have a Costco. It’s just another thing we have to be aware of and watch prices and our budgets. I overall still enjoy shopping at Costco and will continue to pay for my membership.

It’s called merchandising and occurs in most major stores. It is supposed to enhance impulsive purchases.

Costco's changes include low quality products especially in the footwear dept....Fila is a garbage brand and whatever happened to their Kirkland boots? I asked their buyer years back how come and they responded with we couldn't get the price we wanted and I told them that was a mistake and would've paid more for them as they were very good quality and bought them every year or so...I noticed their overall quality of products has gone down...I would gladly pay more for better quality.

Two complications: 1. A non-member receives a gift that a member bought at Costco. Try returning the gift! 2. Costco gift cards should probably be discontinued as giving such to a non- member is a hassle for the receiver dealing with Costco’s attempts at exclusivity.

My wife and I dumped costco membership when the kids left. We have no need of massive quantities of anything anymore. Not to mention there is no costco near us and so it cost too much in gas to shop at one and while we live in suburbs we don't live in the country where there will never be one.

They recently opened a Costco near us. I've been with Sam's forever since it was our only option. However for the price, the Sam's membership gives more benefits. I can't justify the expense of both and for the few items I can't get with my existing membership, it also does not justify the expense. I'm a disabled senior and curbside pickup is crucial for me. That is the one major thing Costco does not offer. The other is free shipping. I can get a lot of items delivered from the local store for free, and everything else comes via FedEx for free. Only fresh food has to be picked up (via curbside so I don't have to fumble through the store on my cane). Plus I can see local "in stock" status before I order. Also I get cash back annually without needing a store branded credit card. Costco is the opposite - you have to have their charge card and premium membership for the best cash back.

The ONLY thing Costco gets wrong is their checkout process. The hardest thing to do in a Costco store is to GIVE THEM YOUR MONEY! From a company standpoint, the easiest thing to do in your stores should be to TAKE THE CUSTOMERS MONEY! Instead you have to stand in long lines to pay. I’ve literally walked out of stores after seeing the long lines. The other thing that would improve customer flow is to open earlier. Opening at 10 AM is ridiculous. Most people like to run errands early and waiting until 10 AM is a complete inconvenience. I have both a Sam’s Club and a Costco membership. Sam’s opens at 7 AM and you can use an APP to Scan-As-You-Shop. I only got the Sam’s Club membership for the times I just don’t feel like dealing with the frustrations that come with shopping at Costco!

The first thing Costco did that I didn't like was discontinuing cash back. This has forced me to go to other stores when I'm going to be needing cash. If I'm on a trip, this can be very problematic. Next, was the elimination of the deli mustard and the onions for my hot dogs. I understand that you can ask for onions at the counter and they'll give you a little cup. I'd probably need two. My daughters dislike the discontinuing of the supreme pizza at the deli. We used to stop at the deli almost every time we shopped there. Now, it's maybe 1 out of 20. That's only for my daughters. They make do with what is there. We are pretty big ice cream consumers. We really like the Nestle variety pack. It's amazing how seldom they get it in. Why would Costco's be preferred? The ice cream sandwiches, cones and bars are larger than you get in the supposedly same pack at any other store. The self-check is our preferred way to check out. I don't know if Costco is getting value out of them. We have six scanners at the self-check. There is one employee at each pair and at least one other employee checking cards or pre-scanning items in the basket. That last is a big time saver and should be used much more.

Ok, I’m not trying to be mean hear. But am I the only one seeing Louie Anderson in this video?

The roast beef sandwich has disappeared at my Costco. The other food court items are so-so. The pepperoni pizza slices have spotty sauce and cheese covering, and I still miss the polish dog. And 2:50 for a cookie is too much, I haven't bought one yet.

I have never understood the Costco policy of reviewing the cart on exit. No other retailer does this. And it seems kinda stupid given that it would seem almost impossible to sneak unpurchased items into your cart after you have checked out. Plus, what are they really checking for? I might have 50 items in my cart, and they give it a quick perusal and waive me thru. What is really going on?

Checking card is absolutely good

I’m unhappy with the new packaging for the roasted chicken. It is a plastic bag instead of the tray and cover. It’s near impossible for the staff to put the chicken on the bag without getting juice all over the bag. And, it’s impossible to remove the chicken from the bag without making a mess. 👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

I miss the churro, but if they keep the chocolate ice cream, I'll be happy.

I hope that Costco will figure out a way caregivers can shop for Members with disabilities . Sometimes the bad days last longer than the supplies. Plus often I need to wait in the parking lot because electric carts are all being used. My wheelchair doesn’t fit in every car.

I used to grab lunch from the food court, but the lines are often too long and there's not enough seating. IMHO, it's not handicap friendly.

So far I think the changes are good. I love self checkout! It's the only check out that I use now. I would like to see more Whole Foods in the Bakery, like real organic sprouted wheat bagels and sprouted wheat breads. I would also like to see less imported food and more food grown locally especially food that uses natural pesticides that are not harmful to the environment or to individuals. Thank you for continually innovating!

If you don't know Costco and just watched this video - you would think that Costco is another 7/11 - food and beer.

Sam's Club lines are shorter, Scan and Go means no lines, and parking is WAY BETTER than Costco... MUCH less crowded at Sam's

I shopped in Daegue , S. Korea. Kinda fun.

Costco you’re good bad and have ugly moments according to customers and comments here. For me, not being able to run in quickly and run out are an unnecessary and unacceptable. These days lines need to go faster. It’s like everyone SLOWS down the minute they get there and cashiers are SLOW!!! Pain in the time slot, AND I’ve never gotten out of there in less than an HOUR! It’s so big lines forever 20 minutes often 30?!?! It’s an ordeal I wish they’d address then I’d renew. And now I have to READ where it’s from on every item to see if made in CHINA🥺😳🥵when will anyone in this industry stop with foods made in China??? Poisons, lead, insecticides, RECYCLED BURNED OILS! I mean really?!?! Bah I’m done! 🤔

If Costco raises it's membership fee, I will not renew!

I'm fine with the added security of scanning our cards to enter as well as showing my card with picture at self checkout - whatever keeps Costco as great as it is.

Maybe Custom Officials SHOULD be as efficient as Costco is at checking ID's.

Customs? They are very efficient at checking IDs. Maybe you meant the officials at the voting stations?

Yes, I like the strict membership policy! It helps keep riff raff out of the store. Practically anyone can easily pay for their membership in savings on gasoline alone! If you have a diesel, maybe not! But they have such good deals on many items, it's hard not to save money, as long as you have some impulse control!

Your video is NOT keeping up with your narrative. 5:25, you were still showing the garlic parm bread when you started to talk about the chocolate pie. No quality control during the editing process. 👎

Does the card showing at entrance then bar family members of card carrier from entering? Or is a card member allowed to have accompanying guests? It makes no sense that I can't bring my husband along if I'm the only card carrier.

Yes, you can bring a guest or family member with you.

If people don't like having to produce ID entering and at checkout, they need to resize that it's Costco's members that are driving this by lending their card to a non-member. Members shouldn't have to police members to keep their costs down but to continue to allow this to go on, Costco is being disloyal to the members that play by the rules. I have been a member of Costco since about 1989 and I wouldn't mind seeing some kind of loyalty rate to keep costs lower. Since becoming an Executive member, my annual refund always more than covers my membership.

Its a Great Store! Ive never had any problems! All there employees are awesome!

I am home bound. I often send my card with friends who shop for me. The new policy will make it impossible for me to use my credit card to pay for my purchases.

As a Costco member for 18 years, I miss down jackets, polester fill jackets don't cut it. Also polyester shirts are any good.
