Crap!! I really love Costco. I don't think I can give it up!! The least I can do is drop a huge glass jar of something every time I go in. :-)

[Minuteman23]

I guess I know where I'm not gonna be shopping anymore. What's good for Soros ....

[anniegetyourgun]

Note to self: put in sell order....

[eureka!]

Based on the reaction on this thread, methinks this could be a Dixie Chicks redux if word gets out--and it will. Hehehehe.....

I purchased an expensive brand name watch as a gift for a Policeman buddy of mine at Costco.

It need service, and my bud took it in to the local "Authorized Service Center," in uniform. They wanted to seize the watch because it had the serial numbers filed off.

We were not amused.

Much of the formerly high quality items offered there have devolved into last year's models and Closeouts you don't know about yet.

The only thing I miss is the deals on coffee, which with my heart I shouldn't be drinking anyway.

Well, ratz...my poor hubby...

Anybody know where to find a good Costco Addicts Annonymous meeting?

[Moby Grape]

Send the torn pcs of your membership card to the chairman of COSTCO.

[diotima]

Time to cut-up the Costco card.

[nutmeg]

Gee, now I'm glad there are no Costco stores in my area! :-)

[nutmeg]

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

Well I'd rip up my membership to Costco .. but I don't have one


But I will say .. to those that have said the Libs want to lose the WH in 2004 to open the door for Hellary in 2008 are WRONG!!

These people are not throwing in MILLIONS of dollars for nothing

[Salvation]

Now I know why all the teachers get courtesy Costco cards.

Never been in one, never intend to go into one!

Here's my letter to Costco:

2/5/2004

To Whom it may concern at Costco,

My wife and I have been loyal Costco customers since 1986. Most of our furniture, electronics, music, videos, medicine, cigarettes (before we quit) and many other things were purchased at either the Northridge CA Costco or The Issaquah store. I would guess that, through the years, we've spent well over $50,000 at Costco.

We've always been amazed at the quality of both the employees and the products in the Costco establishment. We've often commented on our hopes that nothing would ever happen to Costco that would hinder our relationship with them.

Well, dangit, it appears something has happened. The Tacoma News Tribune is reporting that "Costco chairman, CEO give $95,000 each to defeat Bush".

That's just the type of thing we were hoping wouldn't happen. Seeing the way the company was run, we would have believed that Costco management had the same capitalist ideals as we, our families and our friends throughout the western United States do. It appears that we were dreadfully wrong.

If the socialists defeat Bush, our country is in for some rough times.

In the mean time, as much as it's going to hurt us (there's no better toilet paper than Kirkland's) we're going to have to say "so-long" to Costco.

ps: A copy of this letter is going to our families and friends throughout the western United States.

I did not tear up our 17 year continous memership card up, I called membership services, canceled and got a $45.00 refund.

Asked that call be monitored and recorded I explained we do not support nor do business with people whom are fianancially involved in the support of the democratic party's stated Nazi tactics of outright hatred of our President. And that such people as the corporate heads of Costco must also be of the same stripe liars who are actively preaching the politics of hate.

[Paved Paradise]

Really glad you posted this.

[YaYa123]

I sent my local newspaper a link to the report, and asked that they do a column on it, how the local COSTCO management reacts, etc.

[CounterCounterCulture]

So they'd rather cater to the union goons. "Progressive" my arse. Pathetic.

Let's see how progressive they are. They make more money than me so I say they should redistribute their wealth to me. After all, I'm just a working class schmoe. Take from the rich and give to the poor, and all that.

Sorry, I will not give up my Kirkland (costco) Smoked Salmon....NEVER
