It’s a shame that they don’t have Group 24 auto batteries in stock, considering that’s what the gas Yamahas take.

They had a few when they first opened. Must have underestimated the demand, but they’ll figure it out and adjust.

Been gone for the month of August, but I see Costco has opened and yet the Villages does not appear to have become a Mad Max wasteland due to all the horrendous traffic that was repeatedly predicted by some. Guess we missed that bullet.

All ready to shop at Costco but will have to research about what will be practical for our situation. Some of the stuff made be have an urge to feed a horse some beefaroni. The Rye - Wikipedia


I did look around the store quickly but it will take me a while to get my bearings. Do these stores have maps?

Joined yesterday. Very impressive store. First time as member.

Disappointed in the rotisserie chicken. Overcooked with a kind of strange taste. Packaging in Sams but better than the plastic bag costco uses.

Also surprised did not have different flavors of coffee flavorings.

Will be back and expect to be a regular customer.

No maps or aisle listings. Part of the store strategy is to keep you walking around looking for something. Chances are you will see something and do an impulse buy. They also switch stuff from aisle to aisle on a regular basis.
