Engaging read. The COST magic is to make everyone buy more than they need due to alluring prices - it must work when other retailers suffer during an economic downturn and it must work when everyone is cash surplus. We bought a membership for A$60 but never ended up buying enough to earn discounts sufficient to recover the membership cost during the year! If I were any wise, I would rather buy the stock than shop there.
Thanks for your comment. I am surprised by what you say. We find (In UK) the membership savings pay for its cost if we fill up the car at Costco about 7 times a year. So the membership easily pays for itself.
