I have a Sam's Club membership. I do agree; a lot of stuff there is just plain ridiculous to buy unless you have a family of 12 or something like that. Most stuff will spoil or you don't really get much savings unless you go through entire boxes of it a week.
Most of my savings come from drinks. You can get the gigantic bottles of gatorade/powerade for like less than $.75 each. You can also get the giant $4 redbulls for like $2 each. Or the $2-3 starbucks frappachinos for $1.25 each. I spend like $150 every few months and always have a fridge full of any drink I want.
But yeah, 5 pack of jumbo crest toothpaste lol...
Anyway, I agree with your message ^_^ stereotypes do exist because it's part of how we organize things neatly into our brain. To me, stereotyping is just the negative connotation of "organizing."
Now they have Business costco...for small businesses...and then executive platinum memberships there....Eventually costco will be "Baby Costco" and everyone will shop at business costco and then there will be super business costco for businesses

Be open to exceptions.
Really liked this sentence for some reason. Well written and I agree for the most part. First one of your blogs I've read, but after this I'll definitely go back and read some others.

I kind of like costco. The free samples are pretty chill. You can buy enough toilet paper to fill an outdoor shed, and then a shed to store it in.
I once bought Kirkland Brand Medium black t-shirts. They didn't fit very well though. It was like wearing a giant tube sock. I brought them back.
Kirkland Brand boxer briefs are pretty great though.
I guess the only thing I really hate about Costco is the people that shop there. You got that part pretty right.

LOL. Yeah their clothes are weird. Middle-aged women always ask my girlfriend for her opinion on whether the fur coat they're trying on looks "cute"

Wow. They don't sell furs at my Costco. I also find it weird that people would try stuff on in the middle of the chaos. I just bought those packs of 3 underwear things.
Actually the weirdest part is the food at the end. They have these huge hot dogs, pizzas, sodas, etc.. It's a little depressing. Its like they're congratulating people for their gluttony, their overconsumption, and on making it through the horrible shopping experience
"You bought 8L of hot sauce? Geez buddy... Better scoff down a few 'dogs before you try to haul that thing out to the truck"
I guess I have a love/hate thing going on with Costco.

I know man, that food court has become some bizarre right of passage between the check stand and the disabled person that swipes a highlighter across your receipt to make sure you didn't steal anything. I guarantee you 90% of those people dumping onions and relish onto a hot dog feel obligated in a ritualistic way.

Idk man, Costco is pretty awesome. My family shops there all the time. We get like jumbo packs of fruit, you know, 12-24 oranges a week in the winter, 12 packs of fuji apples per week, watermelon, grapes, peaches, cherries, giant cartons of strawberries in the summer. Not to mention they have good quality, cheap meat. Toothpaste and toilet paper are also nice as we buy it like once every, what, 6 months, a year, and they last forever. Oh, and stuff like 4 packs of 1/2 gallon tropicana orange juice, packs of popsicles for the summer, gallons of milk, and like 24 packs of gigantic eggs. I mean, sure, you can be a fatass at Costco, or you can buy fresh, healthy stuff to cook with really cheaply. :D

Thank you, my brother.

I like this blog and its concept.
So here is a comment for you.

Toilet paper and water is cheap. You could probably reap a profit if you bought for a family that takes 100 shits a day.
