One major trick employed by the retailing giant is a conspicuous lack of express lines, says clinical psychologist Julie Gurner. “Given that people have to stand in significant lines, people will tend to psychologically purchase more to make it worth their while,” she explains. Makes sense, right?
So, if you have to stand in line for a half-hour or more, you’re probably thinking that it’s best to make another tour in the supermarket just to be sure you haven’t missed anything. Well, when you do that, you will probably end up putting 2 or 3 items more in the cart.

It sounds like Costco have a good business plan. Plus, all of the employees are friendly and helpful. Also most customers are the same.
I love Costco we shop there quite often
I love Costco we shop there quite often good food and great service prices are great also
I absolutely love COSTCO, I have a membership and I don’t even live near a COSTCO. I wish they would put one in Buffalo N.Y. . Our closest Costco is in Rochester, NY. I would be there 3 times a week if it were here.
I love Costco cause I hate to shop and since there is only me. I can go to Costco once a month get all my paper goods laundry supplies and fresh fruit and vegetables and be done. Also their meat is delicious and priced well.
I love Costco,they have great marketing strategies. Always enjoy the samples and buy what I enjoy.
Thank you Costco.
I live 4 miles from a Costco and I'm there almost every week! Brilliant marketing!!
Until the Corona Virus is stopped, Costco should stop the free sample food.
That is just plain stupid.
They stopped free samples at the myrtle beach Costco 2 weeks ago
I've been a member of Costco since 1982 and has always had great service, good return policy, items that I really need, variety and overall haven't found another service to match. always look for Costco on our trips as that is where the deals are.
Costco is a great bricks and mortar store! I can see it, feel it, buy it. You pointed many reasons people like to shop there. Plus, Costco doesn't just buy stuff and put it on the shelves; they test those products! And, if the product has "Kirkland" brand on it, I know it is a good one.
We're getting one in 2022, can't wait. I don't eat samples and let people with a couple of items go in front of me.
