Heading to Costco for your first shopping trip? Keep these points in mind for a smooth experience.
The first time I walked into Costco, I was a bit overwhelmed by the size of the store and the range of inventory it housed. It's important to know that Costco's shopping carts are huge, which can lead to overspending and storage issues.
- Resist the urge to grab sale items at the front of the store to avoid overspending.
- Make a shopping list and limit impulse buys to manage your credit card tab.
Prepare for potentially long checkout lines and take advantage of the abundant free samples offered.
- Avoid peak times to enjoy a more pleasant shopping experience.
- Feel free to sample multiple items to make confident purchasing decisions.
Reassure that the receipt inspection is for your benefit, not to deter theft. Correcting any errors ensures a smooth post-purchase experience.
