They still do not seem to be able to get there s..t together. Went there Saturday PM and had the "usual" terrible service. There were at least 30 people in line to get out the door with one person at the door. Person in front of us(in his 70's) bought alcohol and there was nobody there to check his ID. He waited(and held up customers) for at least 5 minutes.

About 5 years ago, I went to a new Costco store and noted there were not any self check outs. Per a cashier they did not have self check outs. She claimed that store could make more money with real cashiers due to fact that they could turnover customers at higher rate. What a novel idea.

Keep going to Sam's due to convenience. Left store and "Stairway to Heaven" started on radio and still not done when we pulled into driveway. Life goes on.
Costco does have self check outs now.
