No, and no. My Cosco card expires this month, and I am not renewing it. For those that
like Costco, that’s great, but they don’t carry anything that I’m interested in. If I ever need something they have, and if the savings will be worth it, I can always renew my membership
at that time.
Happy Saint Patty’s Day!
My card expired decades ago. When I got an account as a perk from the company I worked for I went once to the only one in this part of the BA which was in Martinez (and now a Walmart). Didn’t even buy anything. A few years later a friend was an optometrist at one near Hayward so renewed to get new eyes from him. But it was a bit far away so I didn’t keep going there and let the card expire.

Last I looked I am not a Cone Head and needed things in “mass quantities”. 🤣

I’m not a member but standing in lines that long is stupid crazy. I got better things to do and shop where there are no lines!

yes …its crowded like they all are…. if you seen one you’ve seen them all…once your in its “deja vu”
all over again”
Claude. I’m planning on going there soon, it’s the closest Costco to me.
What time of day did you go & was it a weekday?
How was traffic getting into the parking lot?
I usually go shopping around 2 PM on weekdays when the moms gotta go pick up the kids at school (not on Wed. tho, when they get out early).
@ Dr. Jellyfinger ~ Guessing Brentwood Costco would be the same as Concord. Once the Concord gas station re-opens, it will be crazy after 10 AM.
Any day of the week, … first thing in the morn or late before closing, is the best time to go.

Too bad their stock is constantly in the toilet not worth owning and that about sums it up for me.
There were a lot better stocks to buy in 2018 and hold till now than Costco, like I said it’s been in the toilet forever glad I dont own it or buy it back then I’d be pissed only making that return in 7 years.

Was at Concord Costco today, Brentwood is a ways away.
Waited in checkout line for three minutes,
in and out in less than 25 minutes.

We went two Saturdays mornings ago – really liked the generously spaced gas station bays – filled up the tank and enjoyed the views of Mt. Diablo from the East side. Will go back. Cheers to all.

Nope, but if I ever need a 50 lb bucket of stale pretzel’s
or 10 gallons Hidden Valley Ranch Dressing,
I know where to go.

Wrong,
A long term investor who bought Costco in October 2018
would be up roughly 382%.
