Many boomers who had chickenpox as a kid are being encouraged to get a new shingles shot, particularly the two-shot Shingrix vaccine because of its effectiveness. When I agreed to it at my recent physical, my doctor wrote a prescription. Enter Costco, which has an in-store pharmacy where you can get the shingles shot (or shots), as well as other immunizations including flu shots that are recommended for older folks. For people paying out of pocket, Consumer Reports found that vaccinations cost less at Costco than at drug stores such as CVS or Walgreens.
One drawback: Costco pharmacies (at least the two near me in Northern Virginia) are closed on Sundays.

We are retirees. Love ya Costco. We are thankfully very active right now (ages 79), but are happy to see we can order groceries when the ol shopping days are over......(hopefully not until we meet the speed limit of 100mph)!!! Love, Lil ol lady from Escondido, CA
Can Costco make my prescribed eyeglasses dark?
If you have AAA road insurance, any office takes passport pics free!
Wonderful to see everything
Costco sells. Do they deliver groceries??
Yes and they are fantastic. It’s called ‘sameday Costco’. We use them all the time. If the menu doesn’t show what you know they carry, describe it the best you can and if they have it the shopper will get it for you. We have had nothing but the greatest shoppers and service.
How about getting a Cosco in Northeast PA.
Maybe in Scranton
One more item that should be on the list - TRAVEL. Past few years we have saved thousands of dollars booking Cruises (12), Travel Packages (4) and car rentals (7).
The iTunes card for Apple was a huge eye opener for me. I’m going to use this, so the charges won’t be on my CC.
Thank you; Every dollar saved is very important to be able to maintain a decent standard of
living .
Question: Where are your locations in middle TN, beside West Nashville?
I love Costco but there is not one near me in Savannah GA.
Supposedly, there will be one soon near the Tanger Outlets or in Pooler!
