Elsewhere, it is not always permitted to use a family member’s card.

Some subscriptions only allow a maximum of two users per card.

Never mind: for some, Costco’s prices are too competitive to forgo grocery shopping there, even though entering the store is particularly stressful.

A woman has posted a TikTok video that has since gone viral where she films herself having just walked into a Costco branch.

“Using your mother’s card to get into Costco is more stressful than using a fake card to get into a bar,” she explains, looking annoyed.

Her heart was pounding when the employee looked at her card, which was actually her mother’s.

“It’s literally like I’m trying to get into a bar when I’m underage, this kind of thing stresses me out every time,” she says.

“I am not my mother,” she then clarifies. “They didn’t look at the map too closely, but this kind of situation makes me so anxious.”

The comments of many Internet users have shown that the young woman is not the only one to circumvent the rules of Costco.

“I use the self-checkouts to avoid them because my anxiety can’t stand it.”

“Yeah, they took my card away from Costco because my dad’s card looked too old for me.”

“Once I was with my mum at the cash desk, but she had to go to the bathroom and gave me her card, and the lady refused to let me through the cash desk until she came back. »

“One day I was asked who was on the back of my card…it was me.”

Customers who break the rules actually have good reason to be anxious.

At the beginning of July, the company indeed took severe measures with regard to non-member buyers, then reported the New York Post.

Recall that the company also announced in July the end of the sharing of its membership cards.
