If only I could shop at Costco without having to go near Costco....

[-] Wunz@lemmy.world 3 points 17 hours ago

In case you are serious, they have a website and mobile app and they deliver most things they have in the warehouse. Some things are only available on the app/website.

Costco is a good, socially responsible corporation, most aren't.

I'll pile on. They threw their weight in and fought back against the tariffs also: https://www.npr.org/2025/12/03/nx-s1-5628405/costco-sues-the-trump-administration-over-tariffs

Plus, they dropped Callaway Golf after their horrific ad depicting violence against women.

Wait... What?

The golf club company ran an ad where a woman went to touch a golf club and her man pushed her down and threatened her for her transgression.

Costco stopped carrying their clubs in response

Just watched it. I like the idea of it, kind of reminds me of the old Wilkins coffee ads, but it really doesn't fly the way it's presented. It's not shot like a comedy or anything, so you just feel like you saw actual domestic violence occur. Maybe they could have been rough housing back and forth or something?

Does the US not have some kind of advertising standards board that you have to get adverts approved before you're allowed to publicly post them?

We don’t have standards keeping the ass parasites out of the lettuce, take a second and ponder

To be fair, it wasn't Callaway directly. It was Good Good Golf, a golf youtube channel, that aired the ad. Callaway had a partnership with them to cobrand the golf club, but dropped Good Good immediately after the ad and canceled the branded club.

Callaway still deserves the backlash from associating with them though and apparently someone giving the ok for the ad.

Video of the ad.

It's such a gross concept. Wild anyone thought this was a funny, gotta be pretty deep in bro to not see red flags.

I feel slightly out of touch here, what's up with this Trump Mystery Meat?

[-] kieron115@startrek.website 53 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

the big orange man wants americans to have government subsidized hamburgers so people think that food costs arent as insane as they are, but he refuses to say where he's getting it from. the general consensus seems to be that he's allowing the import of a bunch of meat that was rejected by other countries for failing to meet quality standards. because that's how you help struggling cattle ranchers, after all.

They also ate the cost of the tariffs instead of raising prices

[-] echodot@feddit.uk 68 points 2 days ago

Every time I hear anything about Costco it always seems to be the only US company that's run by someone within an actual brain and who is capable of thinking more than 1 quarter into the future.

Apparently they do exist in Europe but I've never seen them

Costco runs it's own rigorous food inspection program

[-] Tiral@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 day ago

I've never heard of it. I wouldn't buy it regardless.

[-] halezinflames@lemmus.org 21 points 2 days ago

I might have to go vegetarian if this is the future of meat thanks to Trump.
