Other fun stuff.

They purposely don’t have express lines because they don’t want you to grab a small amount of items and get out quickly. They want you to stay a while and feel the need to make the trip worth your while by filling your cart with more items. In 2008 average receipt was $100 and now it is likely $200.

Items come and go because it creates false urgency since everyone knows if you don’t get it while it’s there it may be gone for a while. That is by design.

The worst example of returns was a local kayak rental company. They would return the kayaks at the end of every season. The store manager had a talk with them and said no more. Usually if you have the balls to return it Costco will take it.
