Costco

Costco is awesome and it has a huge selection of fresh vegetables and fruits. The service is fast and friendly. The isles and store in general is very organized and clean. I love the days where they give out free samples. I love trying new things at Costco!

Can’t beat the short wait to see the Flu Nazi…“No Flu For You”! Painless, free with insurance, mine anyway, and done in 10 minutes.
Struck out looking for a coat as the ladies selection was dismally lacking but there were some nicely priced men’s and children’s coats to be had.

What can I say… I am a Costco fan! Buying things in bulk is great. This location has good customer service, and a good selection of products. Plus the food court always has cheap food whenever you want a quick bit to eat.

Let me be clear! The only reason that I didn’t give this Costco five stars is because it seems that every single time I go, there are never any poppy seed muffins out. Poppy seed muffins are the whole reason that I first began my relationship with Costco all those years ago. I go on a weekly basis and have yet to see them. I’ll keep my eye out and update my review once I get my muffins!!!

i really like this store. As a former Sam’s Club shopper this is like a breath of fresh air. I love that Costco has a healthier choice of foods. The store is Always clean and stocked. the fruits and veggies are fresh… so far I’m loving this store! Keep up the good work!!!

This is an excellent place to shop! The high-​energy employees are extremely polite and engaging. My wife and I always look forward to our shopping experience here with its superb price & high quality.

I’ve never had a bad experience here. I love getting food from here (though ethnic food is only so so). My family pretty much comes here constantly. You have to pay with a Costco credit card and you have to have a membership to even get in at all. You have to come with the account holder, so I come with my parents who have been members for many years. They also give out free samples of different foods and I always try everything. It’s honestly helped me find things I love here that have become staples in our home such as Ling Ling dumplings.
I love all the great deals here and pretty much check here first before making big purchases because it’s likely that they have a better quality item or better deal here. My husband has bought about two cameras from here and the quality is fantastic. Everything from here is pretty much fantastic.

This is what happens when a company actually give decent wages to their workers. I have never seen lines moving this fast in a check out before. It was amazing seeing so many people checking out so quickly and efficiently. Definitely a change from Sam’s Club that we used to be member of.

Like other Costco reviewers, I am a Costco lover. Today, however, I had a horrible experience with this Costco’s customer service.
Instead of my debit card, I brought my checkbook (big mistake, do not duplicate!). It took 15 – 20 minutes to verify the check (although we were never told this is what was occurring). Each step in the process was done without communication by the employees. At some point I was handed a phone with my bank representative on the other end. Two different Costco employees were handling my personal documents for an awfully lengthy period of time (after the funds seemed verified even), and I just didn’t feel that my personal information was very secure.
From now on I’ll be driving the extra nine miles to the Cordova Costco and bringing my debit card!

It’s a discount club for some things and a tragic reality for others when one realizes there is a lifetime supply of a product taking up space not needed. Be aware that buying in-​bulk is great for large families and not for single folks. The meat department and dairy are my biggest praises. The long lines, not so much. I have no loyalty but will shop there IF I am in that part of town.

Cheapest lunch in town… and I’m not talking about the free samples. Hit the snack bar for a slice of fresh pizza.

This location has the friendliest employees and a great rotation of quality merchandise. The produce always looks fresh and the clothes are cute. It does not have wine as I’ve seen in other locations but that may be a state law issue vs this store. We were members in other states. The book section here is small that is unfortunate. The meat selection is pretty good and you can’t beat the price per pound. The food counter always is busy with cheap eats a great spot to grab a quick hot dog and their cheese pizza is particularly good. They used to have nicer seed buns on the hot dogs I miss those. The fresh onions is a nice touch. Bathrooms are clean as well.

I am a Costco fan buy things here all time but have never really liked this location. however I am stuck since this is the only one near me. I am a huge fan of Costco itself and their products but the management at this location is not that great. There are about 10 lines to check out but I guess as rule there they only open 3 at the most the wait to check out sometimes is ridiculous. Also, there is never any staff in the store to be found so good luck if you can;t buy anything. So, before you go just know all this and be prepared to wait in line and search for whatever you need… because they like to play a game of moving all the products around.

The quality of products in Costco always feels better than SAMs, even when they carry the same stuff. In this branch, the cleanliness, organization and attention to detail is palpable. Their meat section never disappoints and you always find delicious treats in the food section. Their DVD and BluRay selection is well kept, and I love how they cater to 3D aficionados as well as boxset completists. As for stuff I can get elsewhere for more, I’ve been buying the Natures Domain dry dog food for a while, and my pooch seems to thrive on it. As for post shopping snacking, their food stop is good. I love the hot dogs and smoothies!

I’ve been a Costco member for 7 years now, and I still have no complaints. They run very good brands with really good prices, the people is friendly and the place is really clean and organized. About ¹⁄₃ of my groceries and almost all of my cleaning supplies are bought here.
I also like to use my American Express linked to them and that way they give points every time I buy here and extra points when I fill my car at their gas station, and that is some extra money I love to recieve every year =)

Very poor management at this Costco. They an be very rude and never have enough lines open. I used to come in all the time and now I feel like I’m going to get a root canal when I need to come in. Really sucks as most others are pretty well run. I actually am going to Sams again.

I’ve had a Costco membership for three years. Before that, I had a card on my Dad’s membership. The basic membership is $ 50/​year. Even if you do nothing more than buy gas, it’s worth it, as the gas prices are TYPICALLY .15-.20¢ cheaper than other gas stations.
There are many perks of the membership but let’s face it, I’m no employee of Costco. I love it. I usually frequent the other location in Cordova but I really should come to this one as it’s a shorter drive. Oh well!
I like that your membership is good at any Costco. Their meat department is bar none the BEST. It trumps Kroger, Whole Foods and Fresh Market. The ONLY downside is the inability to buy individual items. Looking for one ribeye? It ain’t happening! Need a whole side of cow? This is your PLACE!
Go on a Saturday or Sunday and they have samples. And when I say samples, these ain’t your grandma’s samples. These are SAMPLES! If you don’t have a discerning appetite, you could eat lunch on samples alone. But if you’re like me, you aren’t much of a mooch and you’re heading elsewhere.
Luckily, their concession area has you covered! Slices of pizza for $ 1.99, 20 ounce soda for .59¢! They’ve got a lot of other stuff too!
Probably their biggest perk is their warranty. My dad bought a grill from them and about 7 years later it konked out under no fault of his own. It just died. He brought it in to see if they serviced them or what they could do. They offered him a full refund for the price he paid for it SEVEN YEARS AGO! Unbelievable! That’s how you retain customers. Now I can’t say what products they offer that superb warranty on but check on it.
And for God sakes man, buy a membership!

I do love Costco but I’m incredibly disappointed in this one. Not only were they incredibly rude about turning people away when they closed. They literally gave no warning as to when they were shutting the garage door entrance. Me and my dad were walking in and the door was just shutting with about three people making their way inside. An elderly was only a couple feet from being hit and someone had to quickly pull her cart out of the way so the door didnt land on it. I’m not Indiana jones so I would prefer having a little warning and some manners before shutting out paying customers

This place, like Lowe’s, is a very dangerous place for me. I’m like a kid in a candy store. They have just about anything you could possibly want… just larger. If I can buy it at Costco, I buy it at Costco. With the exception of electronics, they stand behind what they sell pretty much for ever. I’ve purchased a pressure washer from them before and used it for five years. The manufacturer warranty was three years. It broke, I took it back and there were no questions asked. They refunded me in full. Generally, they have very competitive prices, especially on their electronics. They have lots of specialty items you can’t find in your typical grocery store. The seafood is not extensive but what they have is fresh. They have an unbelievable selection of cheeses, party trays and Italian meats and sausages. The butcher section is also very good and the prices are very reasonable. Overall, one of my favorite places to shop.

Is there any reason NOT to love Costco? I don’t think so.
Doesn’t matter which Costco you visit, you get the same quality service, low prices and great selection.
It’s difficult for me to shop at Costco because the package sizes and package counts make it difficult to justify buying so much at one time. I’m meand who needs 24 count Kleenex Tissues? So I use Costco mostly for big ticket items.
Recently I made a purchase at this Costco that saved me close to $ 100.00 had I been forced to buy it elsewhere. Big win for me.
The only thing I don’t like about Costco is their constant pressure to upgrade your membership. If I’ve been asked once I’ve been asked 100 times. grrrr.
Nevertheless, I love this CostCo. It has a bakery, optometry dept., produce, electronics and everything in between.
