For fans of Costco

founded 1 year ago
 

I do not understand why people aren't satisfied with the uppermost (open) case of whatever when there's a large stack (and, let's face it--everything is stacked at Costco). I watch them struggle to lift 4 or 5 cases so they can pick one box of raisins from the 5th level down. I get if there was one left on top that was crushed or some other moron opened...but, really?

The other one is the family of 5 that walk next to each other (think front line of an NFL team) while pushing the cart as slowly as possible down the 'wrong' side of the aisle.

God, yes, the "slow roll". There are two dozen empty spaces at the far end, but you're going to hold up traffic waiting for me to unload my cart...

There was one time I was trying to leave a parking lot and was stuck behind someone sitting waiting for someone to load their stuff so they could snipe the spot, but blocking the entire lane right next to the exit, so i honked at the sniper for blocking the way out of the parking lot and the lady unloading flipped off the sniper thinking they honked

You are the unintentional troll every Costco parking lot needs.

My Costco has a poorly designed parking area so the “slow roll” has people backed out onto the street. I always go I’m ediately to the back of the lot (and can get into the store before someone doing a slow roll, but I still need to wait for them, so I can even get in the entrance

(I guess this clusterfuck is why my town won’t let them put in a gas station)
