Bad news if you’re mooching off of someone else’s Costco membership: The retail giant is cracking down.
When you enter Costco, you need to show your membership card to an employee to shop. Costco membership cards are non-transferable, but the company allows members to give a second household card to one other person in their home. Anyone with a card can bring up to two guests to the club during each visit, the company stipulates.
But Costco has noticed that non-members have been sneaking in with membership cards that don’t belong to them — particularly since Costco expanded self-checkout.
Costco recently started asking for shoppers’ membership cards along with a photo ID at the self-checkout registers, the same policy as regular checkout lanes, to crack down. “We don’t feel it’s right that non-members receive the same benefits and pricing as our members,” Costco said in announcing the change.
And now, Costco is testing out a system that requires members to scan their membership cards at the store entrance — instead of just flashing the card to employees. Shoppers have spotted the new scanners at a store in Washington State and posted photos on Reddit.
If you read my comment you’ll see I mention they don’t offer free trials. This is my 0th free trial.
I wouldn’t have to manage that for a few reasons, here are 2.
1.they don’t offer it
2.I don’t work there
Uh. … Hmmm. OK. No you didn’t. You said I quote “No free trials? I literally don’t know what I’m missing and if they’re fine with that so am i.” That’s a question followed by a statement.
Meaning by the way you wrote it.
1 you didn’t know
2 you seem to be OK without so why care they don’t?
Anyway they seem to be doing OK without you.
