There is a Costco just opened in France!

Best thing is their stock. Bought after 9/11 in mid 30s,now over 150. Figured since the wife was going there loading up and parking lot always crowded,might be a good play.

I have looked for their Chicken Pot Pie since I got back from my mother in laws in early May and have yet to find it.

I go every two weeks for the staples like milk, coffee creamer, almond milk and their meats. In the summer I buy the 1/3 lb. burgers for the kids and I'll eat salmon or turkey burgers. They have great pork chops.

Wife does a ton of shopping at Costco. We like the Kirkland brand coffee. I suspect she buys at least 70% of our household needs at costco. Altho she has been buying more from aldi, too. We now have 3 of them within 6-7 miles.

Costco's hotdogs are great, and for the "dog" and all you want soda you pay only $1.50.

Mrs. does virtually all the shopping so my knowledge of deals anywhere is pretty limited. I think the last time I actually did any shopping was for Christmas "stollen" from Aldi's. Bought them by the half dozen.

No fooling!

If I had spent on their stock what I had spent on their products, all the way back to when Price Club went public, I don't want to know what that would be worth today.

I was an investor in Price Club REIT back in the '90's. Price Club office was a block away from ours, so I walked down there to get some financial info. What I took to be Mr. Price's office looked like it was furnished at Price Club. I figured Price Club could pay rent forever.

My wife and I spend about $150 a week at Costco on garden stuff, outdoor stuff, clothing stuff, household stuff, electronic stuff, paper supply stuff, toiletry stuff, office stuff, automotive stuff, gasoline and maybe even a few groceries.

Yep, I'm a Costco whore.

Their hot dogs! I'm not a member, but one of my former coworkers is (I'm now retired) and he'd take me to a nearby Costco for dogs occasionally.

Well, this thread and all the praise on their hearing aids has sold me. I have two Sam's Clubs closer to me than Costco but I let my membership there expire a couple of years ago. It sounds like the hearing aids themselves would be worth the membership but the other things mentioned here are icing on the cake.
