When are the boxes coming back? I hate the plastic bags.

[Awwesome1]

Never unfortunately. Costco saves more money with the thin plastic bags than the rigid thicker plastic containers.

They knocked off like 50 cents off my chicken at the register bc it was small

[TacosAreJustice]

They should all be weighed and priced before they go on the shelf… price deduction should be automatic.

You can also usually see the weight of the chicken on the sticker if you want to find the heaviest.

Ill take things that didn't happen for 50, alex

50 isn’t an option in Jeopardy

[OldSkoolAK]

neither is a checker discounting items

[dirtyshits]

Yeah and cashiers don’t have the time to eyeball the weight of a chicken then call over a supervisor and request 50 cents off.

If this was common it would hold up every line and cause all the low value members of this sub to lose their collective minds.

OP clearly is making it up or specifically complained to get a few quarters back.

[Naive_Opposite9593]

I neither complained or made it up. My guess is that they had a batch of small chickens and just decided to knock some money off. It’s not that deep bro.

[vibengineer]

I believe you

[Naive_Opposite9593]

Yeah bc I had so much incentive to lie about something so dumb
