5 reasons why the new Costco Rocks! (and stinks)
It Rocks Because:
1. They have everything. They had a wall of Chuck Taylors, 21 bucks, awesome food, electronics galore and even furniture!
2. I got 200 blank CDs for $20 bucks. Woo Hoo!
3. Wide aisles. You know the biggest problem with shopping in a large store is aisles that are too narrow. Not at Costco. You can fit plenty of people in the aisles.
4. Buying in bulk. My personal belief is buying in bulk is better for the environment, so this is a good thing.
5. Big Parking lot. Plenty of places to park.
It Stinks Because:
1. While they had an entire wall of Chuck Taylors, not one pair was in my size. And they had Levis too, but they were 505s.
2. It's 50 bucks to join, and they don't take VISA. This is the 21st century. Even McDonalds takes VISA!
3. People. It doesn't matter how wide the aisles are, there are going to be people in them. Confused, awestruck people. People who walk at a normal rate and then just stop...for no reason, dead in their tracks, with you behind them going 'hey, goober, why'd ya stop? I got somewhere to go, and you're not helping.' Or something louder with more swears.
4. Buying in bulk. I love ketchup, but do you need 5 gallons of it? I'd need to get another fridge...but they do sell those at Costco, probably.
5. Big Parking lot. Where did I park? Crap, I'm pretty sure it was this way. No, that car only looks like my car...d'oh!
Seriously, Costco has just opened in Grafton. I took a tour, it was pretty cool. If you have a lot of money, and time, check it out!

The parking spaces are a nice size.
The meat looks great.
More cons -
It takes too long to shop there. Who wants to spend hours in a warehouse?

Cons outweigh the pros for me. Its a retarded business concept and local eye sores. Costco awesomely stinks.
