Not positive but most decisions have to do with money. They probably found it wasn’t paying off.Does anyone know why Costco did away with the early opening for business and executive members?

Hmm...I have only eaten there once, The only I see a problem with would be the one off Cal expo, it is located outside. I haven't been there in a long time.
Sam’s Club, but they’re competing with Costco. When I had a membership and was working in a town with a Sam’s Club I’d sometimes just go there. Less crowded and I preferred their hot dog, plus they had Coke drinks. I’d usually get Cherry Coke.I don’t think you can buy a large hotdog and soda with unlimited refills for $1.50 anywhere else, plus you can walk around after and nibble on the free samples that are being given out by the vendors. So it’s almost free food.
Also, like others have said the price of the food is subsidized by the members who pay to shop there.
There's actually a Costco in my NYC neighborhood. I've never been in because who has space to store anything you can buy there in an NYC apartment (clearly someone does since it's always packed, but it's not me!). Now I'm tempted to go and see if a. there is a food court and b. if I can eat it and c. how good this hotdog must be.
Not everything is large quantity. We buy clothing, books, backpacks, lunchbags, food. Nothing we actually buy is in bulk.I'm fascinated by people who hold memberships for just home use- what do you buy? Where do you put it? I remember my dad having a card long ago, but we were only a family of 3 living in a small house so really there was no point buying anything in that large a quantity LOL
I just bought a shirt today (I find a good amount of their appearal to be good), we buy toilet paper (just did that today) which is Costco's number 1 selling item. It's great because they come in individually packaged 6 packs so I can put one in one bathroom then another in another bathroom and so on. Just bought Kleenex today too. Bottled water is another great deal there bought that the last time we were there, oh an Crystal Light packs for water bottles, K-cups. Oh and their chicken breasts. We buy them then freeze them. They come in vacuumed sealed pouches 2 per pouches so it's great there.I'm fascinated by people who hold memberships for just home use- what do you buy? Where do you put it?

I used to buy page a day calendars, their book selections is usually pretty good, I've seen some Disney stuff too. We've bought Christmas decor too there, the last time my husband got tires he got them at Costco, oh and we do Costco rental cars which usually can't be beat on pricing (got a trip next week with a rental booked through Costco).Not everything is large quantity.

We got an amazing deal on snow tires and garage doors in the past. The price we pay for our card more then pays for itself, and we only go maybe 3 or 4 times a year.

I haven't then again I'm buying Kirkland brand.I have found a better deal than Costco on toilet paper, napkins and paper towels at my supermarket sale.

I don't think it's pool hoppers much anymore just people playing the "towel game". When I stayed at Fiji, it was funny watching resort guests lay towels on the chairs they anticipate using before leaving for the parks. At least half never returned until late in the day. The locking gates really seem to make a difference in pool hopping.
No.
Sam's, BJ's, and Costco are extremely similar.
There will be items one carries that the other does not.
