Let’s skip the election chit chat. That’s because I wrote this last night and I have no idea who won. (Edit: I’m now up today and revisiting this post and we still don’t know who won. Except Trump, heard he declared himself the winner and asked to stop counting votes. I’m not sure why a lot of past people running for President didn’t do that)
Now the important stuff. We finally got a Costco in our town. I’ve shopped several times at a Costco but it was always with someone or with their card when I was traveling. We have a Sam’s Club but people that have one tell me Costco is a whole new ballgame. So I signed up. The gas alone is worth having a membership. I paid $1.91 vs $2.10 at the other stations. I also stock the coolers at the nursery and if I catch a good deal I can get a can of Coke for $31 cents. Costco $.25. The size of the store is also much larger. Just so many more items.
I do see one area that Sam’s is doing better. Items for resale. Costco is made for individuals and a lot of their packaging is made to open at home in larger quantities. Sam’s has individually wrapped products that the local convenience stores and restaurants can resell. Costco does have some of that but not as much as Sam’s. I went in both places and of course ,Costco was packed because it just opened, but Sam’s was still full of people loading up food and resell chips and cookies. My feeling is the restaurant people will soon be switching because the meat and food selection was soooo much better and cheaper. But the convenience store people will probably have memberships to both.
So my question is this. Does your town have a Sam’s AND a Costco? What do you like or dislike about each. Just curious.

Have a name at auction and need more exposure? Send me an email. We Charge $10 per name per day. We may be able to help. If you have an auction you want to promote, email us for details.*All names chosen by us, Shane and Josh . (ie you click through and purchase a name you like) or an occasional paid listing. Everything we say is based on our own research or is opinion. Do your own due diligence. That means look it up yourself if you don’t think the stats or our opinion is correct. We hand choose the names but we are paid to make this list by both the auction houses, individuals that are auctioning names, and Godaddy affiliate links. Keep that in mind and only buy names that YOU think are good.
We don’t have a Sam’s Club here in the UK Shane, but we do have Costco, I have visited both whiles on vacation in the USA and found Costco to offer the better value of the two, however they don’t have any competition over here…Plus Walmart is pulling out of the UK and selling ASDA there grocery store chain based here too so don’t see a Sam’s coming to us anytime soon.
I didn’t realize Costco was International. Thanks for sharing Robbie
Yes, they have stores across the globe and domains to match too – We covered this in Domain Names Owned by Costco – http://robbiesblog.com/domain-names-owned-by-costco/6683
Sams here has better fresh fruit.
Costco much better. The employer treats the employees well. Some of the name tags you will say since 2005. Good sign of a company treating employees well. The best thing is if the shit breaks after a year you take it back with no receipt in hand and hand them your member ID they look it up and they give you credit, easy hassle free. Then you have the optical which is like 50% less. Any company that ends in mart or club sucks . Plus the stock wins in either great or shitty economy.
