That's not really the same thing as a friend stocking up on personal items and groceries. If everyone thought as you did, there'd be no need for the majority of Costco memberships. They'd all be "cheating."

Doesn’t Costco only take its own Costco credit card?
They accept any Visa.

It’s not even close to the same thing. Your family is going to benefit from those purchases. OP’s friend is mooching and too cheap to buy her own membership. OP isn’t picking up a few things and getting reimbursement. She is full on taking her friend TO Costco to shop with her membership privileges. You’re an idiot

Here’s a tip. Have your “friend” get a Costco membership of her own.

Just have your friend put their items separately on the belt and tell the cashier you would like two receipts. And unless you are paying for your friend they will need cash. I see this all the time at the Wheaton store.

Just have them subtotal it after your friends items are rung up and then have your friend reimburse you outside of the store. No sense in trying to do this in front of the cashier and flaunting the fact that you're blatantly disregarding their policies.

Can your friend bring cash to cover transaction?
I often go alone, but have two separate receipts... one for work and one for personal.

Is your friend not a costco member?
They won't accept your friend's check bc shopping at costco is a paid/member privilege.
Just have your friend reimburse you. You'll be in for a bigger rebate at the end if the year.
