Saw an article online about Just Bare chicken nuggets tasting almost identical to Chick-fil-A nuggets. Delicious!!!!!! Costco also had some Remolded coolers at around 1/3 to 1/2 cost of comparable.

I love my local Costco and the Costco gas station. First the store is great..I like to buy the super size paper towels and toilet paper. I also like buying the industrial size packages of paper plates. All my dry goods come from here. I also like the all the meats, veggies and fruit selection. The 4.99 rotis chxn hard to beat. Sometimes I buy a new 20 pack of socks for the heck of it and I want to treat myself.Also enjoy all the random stuff that may or not incrementally make your life better like swimming goggles or an umbrella that is wind proof for 14.99.Their cheaper gas saves me a ton of money every year, the only thing that annoys me for some reason are the peeps who pull the gas nozzle across their car to fill it.

The BAKERY manager Curtis is so rude over the phone.I had called in for my husband to get a update on his application.The tone of his voice and questions as to why I called not my husband,refused to speak to me.It was as easy as passing phone to husband just to be told its only seasonal.Fix your attitude sir.I would not even want my worst enemy to work with you and I can imagine how you treat your employees as well..Pathetic

One of the things that no one ever talks about is the parking lot at Costco. Driving a large truck, it is usually a pain to find a space that will fit without getting your doors all banged up. They took that into account when they designed their lot. Little things like that make life so much easier. The store itself, its Costco, you are gonna everything you want and a bunch of stuff you didnt know you needed.

Location is off a weird intersection... Other than that, service and selection pretty great here!Also, great service staff on the floor, checkout, and Deli 🤓👍

If Walmart and an organic food market combined it would be an ALMOST perfectly replicated form of Costco but still wouldnt amount to Costco itself. Theres everything you would possibly ever need there from fresh fruit to bulk baking soda. Im not sure if this is all Costcos but the pizza is mouthwatering!

It was my first time in a Costco store. It was clean and seemed well organized. The produce looked fresh. Layout wise, the entry way there was mostly household goods and electronics. Along the back wall started the produce and meats and and along the left wall was the rest of the food. At the exit there was the restaurant, customer service, and I believe I saw a car service center here (didnt check to see what they do this time).

Excellent service here at this Costco store #645. Not only was manager Andrew very accommodating, but he also listens and looks at evidence of professional merchandisers in an open and non-defensive way. As a merchandiser myself who has worked alongside the companies Survey as well as Proctor & Gamble (P&G) for nearly a year now, I must say that manager Andrew was very understanding of my company’s need for me to take pictures of (conduct an audit of) various toiletry items in the store. Was a great experience and I am thankful for manager Andrew’s leadership and understanding.

I mean it’s Costco. They are doing their best. But it is always super crowded and the gas lines are always super long. Just plan for some extra time for your visit.

Costco always has want you want/need . Be prepared to walk out with more then you planned on purchasing. Best place to fill up your gas tank. Employees are wearing masks and all are very helpful!

Costco Tire Service was outstanding today. I had a nail in my tire and my tires were close to needing replacement so we decided to go ahead and replace all 4 tires. Mike the Manager answered my questions, confirmed the available Bridgestone tires (also on a big sale!), and confirmed that they could work me in immediately and have me out the door within an hour.They were true to their word -- I arrived, was processed, and they were able to replace the tires within 40 minutes. When I went to pick up my keys, they answered all my many questions cheerfully.Many thanks for a job well-done. No regrets. (And note that they did not try to upsell me or assume that as a woman I knew nothing about my vehicle/tires. That, too, goes far in my book!)

Horribly experience purchasing a stove. They deal with a 3rd party delivery and install. They scheduled two people one for delivery and one for install. Install appt was never made and now they cant get someone here for weeks. No acceptable. Took over an hour being transferred from one person to another to figure this out. The simplest thing is to return the stove and shop else where. Very disappointed in Costco dealing with an inferior 3rd party.Tip: Dont buy any appliances from Costco that needs separate installation.

Love Costco, always clean, bright and friendly. Only thing that could use a little more attention is the food court. They need someone assigned directly to wiping the tables and soda area.

Everybody loves costco, you go there to buy a few things and by the end of it return home with a cart full of items that you might need someday. Great pricing always and the staff is very helpful and cheerful which makes one want to return often.Before I had the Membership i thought costco had everything but after sometime I have come to realize that they carry limited items but have a lot of brand selection for those items which does get you the full range experience - cheapest to most expensive.

Good people dont get enough credit sometimes

Review №24

After asking directions several times to the location of the Keurig coffee maker on sale, I was told there were none in stock or expected. I had to ask for a search of what warehouse might have one. It seemed to be an inconvenience to for an associate to call the Durham store to hold one for me. I am not well versed in using the app.I was given the number to call which led to a tail chasing event. I decided if I want this Keurig for my husbands bday I better drive over to Durham so off I went never to return to this store again.Durham had me covered and an associate that took me directly to the product. I travel a lot and this was my only disappointment in all the Costcos I have visited in all the many years of membership.

I enjoyed walking through this Costco, it was not crowded and I could easily find a spot to park comfortably while not having to be so vigilant of being hit by a customer who decided to suddenly cross the road way and not care to look both ways first.

Once up a time.. people used to benefit from being a paid member of Costco due to their special price.. but these days..due to competition.. many stores offer better price.. I believe that Costco should really work on their price or other benefits in order to stay in business... free advice.. take it or leave it...

Welcome to Costco, I love you. Definitely the best place for gas, groceries, electronics, jewelry, pharmaceuticals, ect. They sell almost everything between the stores and their online sotre. Costco is in a different league than BJ and Sams. They dont even compare. Costco is the pinnacle of warehouse membership stores. They sell almost everything and you can find some good deals too! I snagged a good deal on a $1200 watch for $294!

Review №32

You may or not feel fuzzy about this, but they handed out masks to each member entering showing that they care. My issue was with a return, that may or may not be the locations issue. Bought products and paid for it using my Mastercard debit card, yet when returning the unopened products, Im being told that I cant have my money returned to the said Mastercard debit card. That makes no sense at all to me. I have never made a return anywhere and was told that the means by which I paid, that I am unable to get the funds returned to that source.

I went on a weekend morning and it was not that crowded. Its kinda warehouse feel. Huge selection, and finding an item is a bit difficult. I havent seen any floor plan, that would be a help for new person like me. But everything was kept neatly. I liked the chocolate and fruit selections.

If you need bulk this is the place. However, the gas lines are long and gas attendants do not do a good job at directing traffic. There has to be a better way to control the lines and help people move through the gas pumps quicker.

Dishonest Tire Department. The Costco store is itself is great and I have enjoyed my experience and membership. Steer clear of the tire department, they do not honor their warranty and have broken my trust with their dishonest practices. I went to Sam’s club and had a much better experience and will be going there for tires from now on.

I came here intending to cancel my membership because we just don’t think to shop here (and usually end up at Walmart). That intention quickly changed when I noticed how much the store had changed since my last visit and how low the prices were for the winter clothes we currently need. I left with some socks for my wife, an interesting book to read, and a plan to shop here more often.

I love Costco. I am a fanboy. The meat department is stocked with fantastic meat and fish and the butchers there are always very helpful. There is a decent selection of seasonal items for sale and if you are careful you can always find good price reductions on already reduced prices at the end of the season. Everyone who works there seams to enjoy their job and this shows in their helpful attitude. Cannot recommend Costco more over other big box club stores.

Review №56

Costco Tire service should consider better training for technicians. I came yesterday to install new tires: first whoever did it, put wrong pressure into the tires (see the pic), second they put dirty old tires into my SUV without any bags. I had to ask associate to remove it and put it in bags that they have specifically for this purpose. Now I have to clean the interior. Also, now, I have to put air into the tires to set correct pressure, but that defeats the hole Nitrogen idea Costco advertises. Hope store manager will assure that corrective action is taken.

Costco is a very busy store. sign for wearing mask is a must. People and staff all are following social distancing and wearing masks. I did not see any hand sanitizer anywhere, But at the cart area, there was a container to wipe the carts. But Everybody did not wipe their cart for shopping. You shop at your own risk. Store closes early due to virus. It is safe to shop here.

This is a well-established Costco in a very convenient spot off the Beltway. The food is pretty good for what it is. The gas is so you may have to wait a few minutes but it does not take long and worth it due to price. Dont hesitate to join and go to this location.

My Costco visits are always enjoyable. The gasoline is usually cheaper by .10 to .30 cents than local convenience stores and I usually leave with more than I initially go to get. Ill be glad when they start to give free samples again. Its was like getting a free lunch 😋

I love Costco. I used to work there. I miss Costco. Costco is the only place I would rather work if I could. Pay is great. Benefits are extra special. Costco is ahead of America. Every business should be run like Costco. They care for their employees. They consider them to be valuable human beings. No one is left out. Costco CEO should run for president. They would really make America a great nation.Costco For President.You have my vote.

What can I say, its Costco, I just wish it was closer to Fuquay. I have been shopping at Costco since about 1998. Loved it then, love it still. Costco is a little pricier than Sams but it also has a bit higher quality of productd include produce, bakery items electronics, and other goods. Im really glad I found the one in Cary because otherwise I would have had to go to Raleigh. And, as usual, its a 5-star store just like all the others.

The only thing that would make this costco better was if they catered to women a little more like Sams does. They definitely need to expand their feminine products outside of the pathetic corner theyre relegated to now. Also, Monkfruit white sugar substitute sweetener is nowhere to be found.

I was visiting apex for sometime. Recently I started going here as I find lidl,ALDI, traders joes, and more at close by. Gas prices are cheaper compare to apex store. I couldn’t find panneer (Indian cheese) here where apex has it. There may be some differences but typical Costco. Overall good.

I came to this store to do an order for a customer. The staff were very friendly. The long line to wait to get inside moves QUICKLY! Do not be alarmed when pulling in. They did a great job to space people apart and to maintain social distancing safely. They were allowing two people per membership card inside. Great variety of items as well as stock!

The worst experience for shopping for new tires made several calls to make sure that I would able to have tires install on that Saturday but when I got there I waited in line for someone to come to the rescue for more than 20 minutes then I was told they didnt have the tires there I would have to make an appointment and it was 4 weeks away when I just had the person front of me have one < 4 days away Not sure whats going on but I would not ever recommend going to Costco for tires anything else for that matter very very poore manager skills
