Costco is the Answer

Where would you go on a shopping spree?

I would spree shop at Costco, or any similar store in other countries. I could afford to pay the annual membership, and I’d get more value for my money. I agree more with Costco’s business practices than I do with Walmart/Sam’s Club. I currently don’t have a membership with Costco or any other big bulk store. I’d buy in bulk several products, including some new electronics.

Fun fact: I had an encounter with the then Costco CEO James Sinegal years ago. I was working as a temp worker at a newly opened Costco, serving refreshments with other temp workers, and he greeted the temp workers at the serving tables. I recognized him before from a segment on 60 Minutes news show, and he seemed to be a pleasant enough man. American companies could learn from his way of doing business.

It seemed that Sinegal retired soon after that Grand Opening of the Costco, but he’s still alive.

Costco is the easy answer, Sam’s Club my second choice.
