55. I bet COSTCO

Tue Oct 3, 2023, 11:43 AM

Oct 2023

My neighbor works at one and early on COVID was getting to the employees one by one. I have not been in a COSTCO since 2019 and no plans to go in one. If I did, only with a mask, but it is one of my sacrifices. The last time I was in one, I could not believe how crowded. I couldn’t imagine getting out of their disease free these days.
