Re: Costco Food Court Secrets From An Employee

AOL link is a garbage link in my opinion.  Costco hands down for everything.  The Sam's by us is dirty and I would never eat anything there.

Re: Costco Food Court Secrets From An Employee

We don't have a Costo for 60 miles, in Orlando.  There is a BJs about 15 miles away and a Sams.  I am a widow and have no reason to use any of the stores. I guess if you buy in bulk they are a deal.   Aldi is every bit as reasonable for anything I need that I forgot at the Commissary at Patrick Air Base.  Publix for fresh seafood.  I use coupons and shop bargains.

Small Costco and Small Sams.  Ours COURT in both stores is one counter a few chairs/tables.  Nothing much.

I thought this was interesting if you have Costco.  Here, we have Sams.

 

If anyone has ever experienced both stores, I'd like to know which you prefer and why.  Thanks!

The pizza at Costco is GROSS, just like their hot dogs. I'm amazed when I see so many people eating this ******, which is full of fat.

@sol_luna,I know.  Many, many people always answer good nutritian with "but this TASTES good!!!".   They never made the changes, or even recognized them.  Sad in terms of being "heart healthy".

Re: Costco Food Court Secrets From An Employee

I've had memberships at both.  Once Costco came to town, there was no choice.  The Sam's here had horrible customer service.  The line was always long with one person working and the store didn't appear very clean.  Costco is the total opposite, plus they have a better selection of products.

Re: Costco Food Court Secrets From An Employee

Thank goodness we have Costco. I was a member of Szm's and never went there often. I love Costco and go there several times a month. Also order on line and that is where I buy Rapid Lash. 

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

I would call that click-bait, to be honest with you. It didn't tell us anything and it certainly wasn't "shocking".

 

Costco wins by a mile over Sams Club.

That’s exactly what I was thinking, Click Bait!   Weird about the oil, I haven’t eaten it but the photo of it on a paper plate does not show any oil on the plate.  It also doesn’t make sense.  Overusing oil would not be cost effective.

There's only 1 Costco near me and there's always a traffic jam getting in & out so I've never been interested in Costco.

 

There's a Sam's wherever there's a Walmart.

 

I've never eaten at a Costco but I almost always get a hot pretzel when I shop at Sam's, it's so good & fresh.  $.99


 

That's not true.  There are at least 3 Walmarts that I know of that do not have a Sam's anywhere even close to being nearby.

Re: Costco Food Court Secrets From An Employee

I’m a Sam’s Club girl. Tried Costco for a year and hated it! The shoppers in Costco were always so rude because they were ALWAYS in a hurry. The aisles were crowded and the whole place was so much smaller than Sam’s. My Sam’s is huge and clean. The shoppers are a lot less stressed out for some reason.
