[quote=Anonymous]I have been a Costco member since basically birth, save a 4 year hiatus when I was in college. I absolutely save money overall on my list of ~ 15 things I buy regularly from there, plus the occasional Christmas present on which I save a lot more. Could I probably find the same items for less if I comparison shopped? Yes, of course I could -- but that takes time. The prices on those 15 items I buy consistently are, well, consistent and I know exactly what I'm getting. Furthermore, Costco is just a pleasant place to me. It reminds me of childhood, I like checking out the book table and scoping out the fish counter, I enjoy trying some of the new items that come and go. Even the smell of Costco just makes me happy, so there's definitely a nostalgia element here. You also can get good savings on tires, car rentals, and even loans. The DC/MD/VA Costcos are often zoos, but I live elsewhere now and can go during the workweek and that makes it much more pleasant. [/quote]
