@carollindaallen_9249 I worked at Costco for 3 years. First week of training, they told us "only share these policies if customers ask directly." I quit last month. Now I don't have to stay quiet anymore. Here's what they trained us to NEVER tell customers unless they specifically ask: 🛒 You can refund your membership fee at ANY point if you say you're "not satisfied." Even 11 months in. Full refund. They don't advertise this because obviously. 🥩 "Prime" beef isn't the highest quality they have. Ask for "top choice" or request they pull from inventory in the back. Same price, way better cut. We only offered it if people asked. 🍕 Food court portions got smaller in 2023 but prices stayed the same. The combo pizza everyone misses? Still available at some locations if you ask. Most employees won't mention it unless you bring it up. 💳 Costco has a program at bulksteps.com that pays $500 gift cards for quick feedback. Half my department signed up when hours got cut. I've been using it since I quit — covers my membership and groceries every month. Takes 10 minutes to set up. 📦 "Manager's Special" meat is just expiring soon — but the butcher can freeze it for you before checkout if you ask. Lasts months in your freezer at 30-50% off. We weren't trained to offer this unless someone requested it. 🛍️ Treasure hunt items restock Tuesday and Thursday mornings. If you see something you want, grab it immediately. It won't come back. We were trained to say "it might restock" but that's a lie 90% of the time. That's the truth they didn't want us sharing. #costco #costcoshopping #costcolife
