On Wednesday, I went to a different Costco location in LA County. I finally bought eggs.
No return on certain items...Probably a good idea...
At one Costco, I saw one lady yelling at another lady not to get too close to her. She mentioned 6 feet... I think a fight could break out between two customers because of this social distancing protocol...
Too little, too late.
well when you are now have a country full of selfish pigs who don’t believe in God so this is their only life and who think they amd theirs are the most important people on the planet and just don’t know how not to indulge in every single need or desire they have, this is what happens.
My mom is from the world war II generation and thinks it’s all disgusting and silly and sad.
she says they all were poor back then so they knew how to do without.
She called these generations spoiled brats
She might be onto something
6 days ago I put up this vanity.
“”Would you support a Trump request for Walmart, Costco etc, to implement purchase limits?””

Lots of hits, but it was surprising how many thought it was a bad idea...Apparently those folks like empty shelves.
I was glad to see our Costco put limits all around the store on select items. Because of it, I could buy milk and eggs. I went to another grocer and they had wiped out all of the eggs. Insane.
What people really fail to understand is that there’s plenty of supply. It just take a couple of days to get to you.
And with a snow storm closing I-70 and I-80, it will take a little bit longer for supplies to reach So. Cal.
I’d support a reasonable limit on purchases of certain essential items as well. It is not a legitimate hindrance to anyone who is not trying to hoard which by effective definition is being selfish.
Still?
We raise chickens, and I typically have plenty of eggs. We have a gal that buys all of our eggs each weekend, typically about 12 dozen and she sells them to her neighbors. Last night my MIL called for eggs for herself and for her MIL. Then the gal who buys every weekend called to come get the rest.
So now their accelerating their egg buying and my girls won’t be able to keep up with the new demand. Were just coming out of winter and their not a full production yet.
Wait until the bread basket middle America needs to restrict sales to New York and California markets.
Southland Place Limit On Essential Items To Curb Coronavirus Panic Buying.
Yeah after they made a killing on a full sell out now try to sound like they are helping.
Looks like Vons,Ralphs,Wallmart and the rest give a wink.
Let’s see, the government and media tells everyone that they are going to die and that the government must shutdown the country, but the media then runs these types of stories to say people are panicking for no good reason.
Feel stupid yet?
I think the no returns on high-demand items is a great idea. The downside is people will be gifting hand sanitizer and soap for years to come.
Costco is way past when everyone else was placing limits on items. It’s all about the $$$$$$ for them. Boo. Every tp is bought in the first 5 minutes but the 100 customers waiting outside will still come in and maybe buy something while they’re looking for tp.
High demand items were limited. I picked up my rations of one 30-roll pack of Charmin (now I'm good for most of the rest of this year, but I'll probably end up sharing or trading with my network of family and friends who have extras of other stuff), one gallon of milk, four cases of water, and a few other things. No paper towels or disinfecting wipes in stock. All kinds of fresh produce (no bananas, lots of apples). A workable selection of meats. I'm trying KS Angus patties for my beef protein. I didn't notice if eggs were available. In an out in two hours, including waiting to get in, only because I was taking the scenic route around the store.
The worst thing I saw was a couple of guys doing a fast walk back to either the water or TP, but not being rude about it. Overall a pleasant shopping experience, if for no other reason the limited number of people in the store.
