showing your card.

Around here, Walmart makes you wear a mask before they let you in, and gets some of the same bitching. Hasn't been as loud lately though, and the grumblers get little sympathy.

No Mask, No entering the store and they also only allow a limited number of people inside at a time. I saw some guy outside Lowes yesterday fighting with the employee because he didn't want to keep 6 feet apart from the others in line. I didn't stick around until the police arrived.

In the town I am in right now there is a 1000$ fine for not wearing a mask in public.

He wouldn't have gotten in without it, and his partner had one on. He was looking for a fight and a video. He ended up with a video that made him look like a fucking bozo.

as it's taken away, while a bunch of people look on blankly, and his girlfriend/partner gives him a "You jackass" look.

It's a bad loss.

Saw this first hand two weeks ago today. The Store Manager told the Guy,we make the rules and if you want a refund for your card,I can arrange that. The Slug turned and walked away.

I ordered things I would normally go inside to pick up. You must have at least $75.00 for free delivery, and the items I chose were nonperishable. My order will be delivered by UPS tomorrow. 😁
They do have a perishable plan delivered through Instacart (I think), but I didn't need that service this go round.

2. You are on private property prick
3. You are free to shop elsewhere
4. If no store is open to people without masks TS

They treat their employees well and pay them a living wage, unlike Sam's Club.

I wasn't saving enough on what I bought to warrant the annual fee. I live alone and bulk buying wasn't always practical.

But I always admired that they were basically a progressive company that paid well and took care of their employees.

to shop at the moment. The mask policy, they keep carts clean and keep customers apart. I even have a few shares of Costco in my retirement portfolio.

They actually pay their employees a relatively decent wage compared to other places like awful Wal-Mart and Sam's. This makes me feel even more positive about Costco to see that they don't entertain bullshit that will endanger their customers and employees.
