I’m a unicorn! But you knew that already, didn’t you?"Costco is not a store.
It’s a high stakes casino where your chips are made of Kirkland brand dreams and you lose big every single time.
I walked in for eggs and milk, walked out with a hot tub, a 20lb bag of Colombian coffee, a chainsaw, and a cruise to a tropical island that doesn’t even exist on Google Maps.
I blacked out somewhere between the rotisserie chicken and the giant teddy bears.
Next thing I knew, I was financing a pizza oven and emotionally attached to a 4 pack of mayonnaise.
And don’t act like this is just me.
If you’ve ever left Costco spending less than $400, I want your name, your secrets, and probably a drug test.
You’re a unicorn.
The rest of us are in the parking lot questioning our life choices with 32 AA batteries and enough beef jerky to supply a bunker.
Everyone there is suspiciously happy.
Too happy.
You ever notice that?
These employees are glowing.
It’s like Costco is hiding a motivational speaker in the breakroom pumping them full of affirmations and essential oils.
Tina rings you up with a smile that says “I’ve been here since 1984” but she looks like she’s barely 30.
WHAT ARE THEY FEEDING TINA?
This woman has been thriving in fluorescent lighting and frozen aisles longer than I’ve been paying taxes.
Then there’s the exit security, and don’t even lie, they’ve got tighter operations than the White House.
I just bought $947 of legally scanned merchandise but Larry wants to match each item to my receipt like
I’m trying to smuggle out a pallet of illegal Cheez-Its.
Sir.
Tina just watched me pay.
Why is this now an episode of Narcos: Bulk Edition?
And let’s not forget the $1.50 hot dog combo.
How in the name of common sense can you feed me a hot dog the size of a baguette and a drink with unlimited refills… for $1.50?!
Where are these cows being raised?
Wakanda?
Mars?
Are they even cows?!
At this point I’m not eating lunch, I’m participating in a culinary conspiracy.
Bottom line?
Costco is a vortex of financial destruction wrapped in happiness and hot dog juice.
It’s cheaper to not go to Costco.
It’s safer to stay home.
But will I go back next week for laundry detergent and accidentally adopt a 12-person tent?"
My last two times in Costco I was able to exit without having a $5 rotisserie chicken in my cart. I consider that a small victory. Still, seeing the aged gouda got me buying something that was off my list.I’m a unicorn! But you knew that already, didn’t you?
A loss leader, much like the $1.50 hot dog and soda.The chickens are priced at a loss and placed at the back to cause more shopping with more walking. When I have only a chicken in my cart, the free samples are usually worth the walk.
