Flu, Carlsbad Costco? That’s the one I go to from work. Or should I say, used to go to before they started construction on their gas pump area. Now the long lines are completely unbearable. In general I agree with the original poster: Costco is not the great deal it once was. I’ve noticed that the meats have all gone up (they’ve gone up everywhere, but more so in Costco) and there aren’t as many deals. And the amount of folks that stand in the middle of the aisle thereby blocking all the other shoppers has gone up considerably. Luckily for them, they still have cheap kitty litter so I’m there for now!
