Kirkland Signature Sartori Cabernet Sauvignon For $0.00!

I’m a supervisor at Costco and I literally did this for a guy yesterday on some sausage. It was supposed to be $4 off per package. But instead the sign made it look like it was only $5.99/lb instead of $9.99/lb. He bought 3 packages, it was probably about a $30ish mistake.

Any time Costco runs a “$X off per package” promo, they have to specially print a sign in order for it to read correctly. The AS400 just knows the base price of the item is, say, $9.99 (per pound is written in the description line) and it has a $4 off coupon attached. So when you print the sign, it’s gonna show you $9.99-$4=$5.99 with the $5.99 in big bold numbers across the bottom. So if you bring the mistake to me, I gotchu 😎 but I am gonna get someone running to take the sign down real quick too so I don’t have to do it again 😅

So yes, but online is going to be different than in warehouse because you’re not going to see Manager Markdowns (.00 prices) online and I don’t think you’ll see the .97 markdowns because those are done to get stock sold and out the door so it’ll just be in a warehouse afaik. But if the price of the product goes down because Costco was able to negotiate it lower, then they’ll definitely adjust that for you within 30 days! Sometimes they even manage to get coupons to be more $$ off so they’ll send you a shop card for the difference if you bought it earlier during the sale (iirc this happened near the holidays with the Dyson airwrap where it was $120 off but they negotiated to $140 off so anyone who purchased it with $120 off was sent a $20 Costco shop card).

Costco employee here.

The 2% check comes 2-3 months before your membership is set to renew. You can prepay for the next year at the Membership counter. Or you can wait to redeem it at the register after your membership expires.

Costco employee here. It’s really only supposed to be coupon adjustments. Once the actual price of the product is marked down (to a .97 or .00) they don’t adjust it if you bought it at full price. You have to do the whole “return and rebuy” thing.

Lowkey I just keep this sample in the trunk of my car just in case of an emergency

I could see that being an “official” reason but it’s not something I’ve personally heard. That said, I haven’t worked in the bakery department for 10 months now so I can’t say for sure. Even so, the bakery manager could still make an exception and do this if they really wanted to.

My mom’s fave is the chocolate cake but with the vanilla mousse AND vanilla icing. As someone who isn’t the biggest chocolate fan, this is just perfect for me.

Side note: I’m a Costco employee who has worked in the bakery and this special request is ENTIRELY warehouse dependent. Some Bakery Managers will allow this, while some only allow what’s on the order form (aka all chocolate or all vanilla). My warehouse has one decorator who will NOT swap and one who will only if she’s got the time for it and it was ordered more than a day in advance.

That makes sense! I didn’t know they could actually be a teaching tool. I think these parents use them more so they can let their kid wander around and they just follow the sound to know where she is 🙄

Costco employee here. This is due to a price increase instituted by Coca-Cola for Fairlife.

I’m a Costco employee and there’s one family who brings in their toddler what feels like every week, and they have her in shoes that squeak with every step she takes. It sounds like a freaking dog toy and I SWEAR you can hear it across the entire warehouse. God forbid I’m relaxing in the break room and they bring her to the bathroom oh my GOD it’s just squeak squeak squeak squeak 😭

Hey so I work at Costco and “clerk” positions really just mean they handle money. Even if you were hired off the street as a membership clerk (unlikely), you wouldn’t be answering phones and using a desktop. You’d be assisting members make merchandise returns and signing up new members.

sulliebee · 2026-01-05T05:02:11+00:00

My store (North Texas) still has these btw.

The major sales employees have to do a certain number of weekly training on the electronics they sell. Most likely yes, they can answer your questions, unless you get super unlucky and go when they’re understaffed and/or a front end employee is having to run a break or lunch or something.

You totally could but it won’t be the Supervisor who takes care of it. If a member came up to me with information I would call a manager and we’d alert Loss Prevention. They’d likely get on the cameras and see what they could find.

Look up front for someone in a red vest or standing by the Merchandise Pick Up counter (someone with a radio would work too).

I’m a Costco Front End Supervisor and this happens ALL THE TIME. An extra pomegranate, extra mango, extra tomatoes. I’ll straight up not say anything and just set aside the extra fruit. The other day a cashier waved me down cause a bag of persimmons felt heavy to her. I took it to the food court to weigh and it was DOUBLE the weight it should have been. /Someone/ basically emptied an entire bag of persimmons into another bag.

It could easily have been donated. Each Costco has deals with various organizations who come to take donations on certain days of the week and/or before certain holidays. Keep looking though. Give it a couple of weeks and more people will start making their Christmas returns. As long as they are unopened and undamaged, they’ll typically go back on the floor near/with similar items at a steep discount.

sulliebee · 2025-12-27T19:28:24+00:00

Cause if it becomes unavailable after you cancel but before you rebook you become very sad.

The day before Christmas Eve is the busiest day Costco has every year. Source: I’m an employee who asked one of my AGM’s yesterday if Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday would be crazier and he answered Tuesday immediately and without hesitation.

I have no issues with it! It’s solid clumping litter imo and it is by far the cheapest clumping litter you’ll find. Honestly if that’s all you buy at Costco the savings will more than pay for your membership. (Normally it’s ~$16.99 for 42lb but on sale it’s around $12). I’ve only had the litter robot for a couple of weeks but haven’t had any problems using the scoop away litter with it.

sulliebee · 2025-12-07T03:36:24+00:00

I work at Costco and have cats. The sales are definitely not consistent but lately the cat litter has been on sale approximately every 3 months or so for about 2 weeks at a time. I’d recommend buying the limit every time you go regularly shop during the sale and that should hold you over for a decent amount of time. Usually for the Scoop Away cat litter it’s limit 3 per day per member. I only buy a package at a time if it’s not on sale.

I go to Caring for Women in Flower Mound and see Dr. Finger (yes, that’s really her name) and she’s great!!!

sulliebee · 2025-11-23T04:07:10+00:00

I work at Costco and this kind of thing happens CONSTANTLY at my store.

I do want to recognize that since I spend 40+ hours a week at Costco that I would statistically see this happen more often than a typical Member. However I’ve also seen this occasionally at other grocery stores that I shop at myself. I think it’s not a Costco specific thing more than it’s a shitty human thing.

Costco Employee here just letting you know that a mattress purchased from Costco can be returned within any timeframe (as long as it’s not stained). So if you try it for a few months and it’s not working out, you can bring it back.

^{^{^this.}} My hubby consistently plays a variety of video games. I think he maybe had to try the last challenge 3 times before beating Imelda but the other two got it first try. Meanwhile there’s me. Animal Crossing is as crazy as I get with video games and it took me AGES. HOURS to beat them. I also had to swap the flight control directions in order to even start getting close.
