seven eight on this Wednesday, Januarytenth, ninety seven point one wash fm
're Toby and Chilli in the morning, come out up in just a few
minutes. Shop at Costco there's somethingyou need to be aware of. They're
making a change. This will affectyou if you shop there. What's the
change you'll find out coming seven twoat ninety seven point one watch FM with

(15:24):
Tobey you'r Chilli in the morning onthis Wednesday, January tenth. Costco shoppers
people who love their rotisserie chicken.There's a change that's being tested which has
hit Reddit, which has got somepeople feeling some sort of way over at
Costco today. Yeah, it's abouthow they check your membership. So right
now, when you go to mostcostcos, you just sort of flash your

(15:46):
car. There's somebody standing there,they click you in. No big deal,
now, there, I got thesescanners where you would potentially put your
card underneath the scanner to make surethat your membership is valid, and then
you go in. You can goin and then you can scan it again
when you check out. Now,Costco made some waves and kind of angered

(16:06):
some people recently when they started crackingdown on membership cards sharing. Yes,
like you know, one person buysa Costco membership, which becomes the community
family Costco membership, which is kindof you know, Costco is losing some
money, so the people on Renditthat you talk about were saying, like,
when you have these scanners, ifyou bring these scanners on board,

(16:26):
it's going to cause a huge bottleneckbecause everyone's going to try to line up,
just like try to get their thingsscanned, and half the time it
may not work. And they're justannoyed by this. But at the same
point in times, some people thinkit's a good thing. I personally think
it's a good thing. Create thebottleneck on the way in, you know
what I mean, Just make itmore seamless on the way out. Well,

(16:47):
because the biggest thing that is mybeef at Costco is how long it
takes to check out. Well,okay, but you're still gonna have to
show your card when you check out. How about we get rid of the
receipt dude, person, you knowwhat I'm talking about, Like, when
you're right about to roll your cardout, they ask to see your receipt
as if they can really do mathin their head that well, like you

(17:08):
may have it and then prove thatyou were, like you know, actually
purchased what you have in the cartthat I might you know, feel worse.
I'm done. I want to getout of here. I mean,
you know, but still I don'tknow if we'll ever solve the problems that
face us during these troubled times.But at least we can debate costco changes

(17:30):
