This isn't the first attempt by Costco to enter this "market." About two years ago they approached SPF about marketing their cars in Arizona Costcos. SPF turned them down.

I, too....er..."WE" are happy Costco customers, as well. But, did you ever notice how Costco seems to be bordering on "cultish" behavior...? I mean in one visit to my local Costco...after first proving I'm a "cult" member...I can buy batteries, digital cameras, TV's, get my film developed, buy kitchenware, buy printer cartridges, tools, motor oil, car care supplies, crab legs, pastries, bread, meats - prepared and fresh cut, produce, any kind of drink - including beers, both import and domestic, furniture, lawn equipment, books, frozen food - of any kind, dishwashing soap, coffee, tea, milk, cleaning products for the home, kitchen, and bathroom, toilet paper, paper towels, paper plates, toothpicks, napkins, t-shirts, toys, bicycles, basketballs, golf clubs, hats, blue jeans, shoes, socks, belts, underwear, dress shirts, coats and sweaters, flip-flops, snack foods, prescriptions, OTC drugs, deodorant, shampoo, cigarettes, cigars, and too many other things I know I've missed....
Then....on the way out you can refinance your house, order a car, buy some tires, make a home loan (first or second mortage, thank you), buy storm windows, siding, or a roof, arrange a cruise, make travel arrangements to any country, buy insurance...home, health, life, and auto, get investment advice, and get a hotdog, Polish sausage, pizza, soft pretzel, ice cream or a smoothie.
Finally, after you've returned to your car from your safari through the Costco jungle, on your way out of the parking lot you can fill up your car, or get your oil changed.
DAAA-YUM...if this isn't a "cult" what is...?  What's next...medical and dental care? Haircuts? Holistic healers? It won't be long until religious ceremonies will be available in the chapel.
I think Jim Jones must be secretly running Costco from the beyond...

Yeah...but they took your fingerprints off your check. Now they're looking for all those who are related to you to recruit them into the "cult".
Ohhhh...they're a devious bunch, John....
Hint....don't ever drink the grape Kool-Aid....never.

They don't have the medical care yet. You'd have to go to 'Sam's Cult' for that. http://money.cnn.com/2006/03/31/news...1706/index.htm

Polish & a soda!
Oh yeah, I always get a polish & a soda for the way home.
The Kirkland Cobra adds a whole new meaning to "Polish & a soda"!

P.S. Sorry David & Tom, I just couldn't resist!

jdog,
Did you get my PM?
I am available at the office.
801.377.8224
Dan,
Every time I go into Costco it is nice and clean--with great products and great deals. The workers are working hard and moving. (As a company owner, I NOTICE those types of things). I have a friend who even bought a grand piano in Costco. I have never been disappointed with them. I can't say the same for some of the other places I have been.
That said, I do not believe Costco could dilute our brand in any way. I'm just happy they called!

Counting nickles!
Yes I did David, thank you very much. I'm still counting up all the spare change I can find!
I hope to be talking with you soon.
