Is a Costco one of those citified grocery stores? I have never seen one. Something like the mythical Whole Foods?

The Costco near me has been a resounding success, increasing the tax base so much that we have all this neat shit in town (rec center, new library, new town hall, baseball fields, new fancy signage for town, yes, all that *after* the Costco got built).

Like thedopefishlives says, it’s Sam’s Club for people who don’t shop at Walmart. Membership ($50/yr) required. Just this year (2017) I’ve bought tires for my car, a new phone, groceries, various DVDs, gasoline (cheapest in the valley!), booze, and a big metal rod so I can break the ice that forms on my driveway, all at Costco.
