Anyone want to start a petition to cancel their Costco membership if they capitulate?
Hell yeah
Yes please someone start one. I hardly go since grocery prices are too damn high to be able to afford to bulk buy. I can either get a weeks groceries or I can get 3 months of TP and a few other items.
But bulk buying is cheaper per unit normally?
Bulk prices are generally cheaper per unit but it's very, very possible to not be able to bear the upfront cost of a large number of units and be forced by that to spend more money in smaller chunks over a longer time
That sounds like single with no kids lol
I digress, I do now shop at a local store for most things. Cost the same as Costco for less groceries, but there’s less waste
Nope married with 2 kids. Shits expensive yo.
Sorry to hear that. Your area must be more expensive than mine :(
Count me in
