Really wish the closest Costco to me wasn't almost an hour away. 😪

Can you order delivery? Mine is only 10 mins away but the parking lot drives me insane so I just order 2 day delivery.

Nope. When I tried, it's said that it was too far away.

Which is weird to me because of the whole two day delivery thing.

That’s really weird because my aunt in LA (CA) sends Costco stuff to my Nana in AZ and there’s no Costco in the small town she lives in. Maybe the nearest one is closer than yours though. 🤷🏽‍♀️

It's legitimately only an hour away, I don't know why the website said it couldn't do it. 😭 I understood the cold stuff cause those typically have a safety time of about 45 minutes outside of the coolers.

The rest, I dunno.

Wait, Costco has delivery? That and no curbside pickup are what’s stopping me from joining

They'll ship nonperishable items.

I know folks that travel over two hours to get to the closest Costco, they bring a cooler for the frozen items.

I mainly just get frozen meats and shelf stable items in bulk, then shop at local groceries for the produce.

Costco delivers :)

I tried once, and they won't do it. Website said it's too far away or smth

What about just their regular online shipment? Rather than the same day delivery. You won't be able to get everything, but you can usually get the staples.

I can promise you it's better than having one 10 minutes away. I swear I'm there 2-3 times a week and every time it's a few hundred dollars.

Mine is on my route home from work. That can be a curse. 🤣 I love it, though. And am getting impulse buying under control.

I am honestly super jealous. 😭

The whole reason I even looked it up to begin with was because I wanted to possibly apply for a job there. And then later figured I would save money if I could get delivery from them.
