Costco has smart people making wise business decisions. I think they are doing good job.

Different Costco warehouses carry different products according to demographics. I believe Costco will sell Flan at certain locations if plenty of people buy them and make money for Costco. Everything changes, and Costco must adopt to changing demographics. It’s only a business.

I am too ignorant to talk about paper or plastic packagings. I’m a little guy. I pay tax and follow rules. I know it sounds bad, and I am embarrassed about it. 🙁

Thank you for letting us know.

This is interesting. It turns out, if you use instacart, you don’t have to be a Costco member to purchase Costco products.

Instacart is only 2 years old. Not all details are ironed out. There are new loopholes and gray areas.

If seems to me that, if you want 2% rewards, you must log in to Costco.com on your own and use your own credit card. Then Costco will know who’s shopping.

If you use Instacart app, as far as Costco is concerned, you are not shopping, Instacart is. Therefore, you don’t get 2% rewards, and non-members can purchase Costco items.

This bug may get fixed in the future(?) I don’t know.

FYI: I don’t use Instacart, so I may be incorrect.

John
