Really? I know Costco has a great return policy but that is out of this world.

Yes, there's no time limit for returns, except for certain electronics products. And they sell high priced jewelry up to $80 to $100K.

Most jewelry stores will never give you a refund, only an exchange within a few weeks after purchase.

We like the $4.99 rotisserie chicken. My wife brought a whole chicken home from Publix for me to cook on the smoker. The price was $13.00. I asked her never to do that again. lol

Depends upon where you live. We are in the Spanish Springs area and closest/fastest time Costco is about 1 hour away near the Millenial Mall(1-4 and Turnpike). Closest, but not fastest is Altamonte Springs.

Costco about 1 hour away… do you have Mapquest or one of many GPS options? The DMV should consider testing Senior cognitive skills

Sams and BJs also sell the same chicken but we think Sams tastes better.

Supposedly they are a loss leader for all three big box stores

I submitted feedback on Costco's site asking for a Costco in the Villages. They'll probably ignore it, but I figured it can't hurt to ask.

Clermont location is almost finished.

It is not even listed as a future store, and it is not on their schedule to open within the the next 6 months.

No kidding. Have been to Sam's and Costco. Basically the same, and there's one in Lady Lake.

This would suggest that construction hasn’t even started.

Costco / Clermont

Sams and BJ's questions

So far our choices are Sams and BJ's and have membership to both. When it is open will look at Waze and see how we can get there by planes, trains and auto's.

Never been to Sams or BJ's. Do you do weekly shopping there? Is that how it pays for the price of membership?... and if so why be a member of TWO discount places? Thanks
