@SharkELots of people are of the mistaken belief that Amazon always has the best prices.   And they do have an addicted clientele!

I check all places before a major purchase like SMEG's, etc.

I like Sam's they discount magazines, check out their jewelry, buy nuts there.

Pecans are sky high, Sam's has the best deal on them. Also, buy that coarse pepper and dried onion there. 

 

Gonna start buying Vidalia onions there this yr. Those I've been paying a fortune for straight from Ga. aren't as good quality as used to be. those at

Sam's is just as good.

Re: Wow who would pay

I don't think anyone really thinks that Amazon has the best prices on everything because that isn't even possible.  They have  millions of items but Amazon is a platform where thousands of sellers sell their merchandise and those sellers set their own prices.  So, it is totally impossible for Amazon to have the lowest  prices on everything.

I went to a Costco 100 miles away in Lubbock, Tx and went in to look around on a 'guest' pass. Wasn't impressed with that one at all. Sure wouldn't pay 65 a yr to belong to it if one ever came to Amarillo.

Mainly men stuff. Maybe it was just that one.

They're building a new Costco up where I moved from in Evansville, In

Told my sister I would split the cost with her if it was any good. We drive

up there once a yr. I could load up on vacation and she would have the use

of the card rest of the yr.

 

Won't open till Fall or later , though.

Never heard of them closing any stores !

Guess people aren't willing to pay 45 to shop at a store
