About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, while loading groceries into his car, a regular noticed something odd in the Costco parking lot—a mysterious box wrapped in brown paper and tied with string. Curious, he picked it up and found that it contained an old, dusty calendar from 2019. But every day had been crossed out except for one: November 15th. A few days later, on November 15th, everyone who saw the calendar rushed back to Costco. To their surprise, there was a special sale—all items priced exactly like numbers on the calendar! A delivery driver joked, ‘Guess they forgot to cross out today.’ And so, our regular learned that sometimes life at Costco is just as unpredictable—and fun—as those mystery boxes.

2. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to unload pallets of paper towels, he heard an eerie humming sound coming from inside Costco’s warehouse. Curious but cautious, he peered through the open door and saw rows upon rows of shelves glowing softly—like some surreal light show. As he watched, each aisle seemed to pulse with its own rhythm, like a giant neon heartbeat. Startled, he called out, ‘Is anyone else seeing this?’ A voice from behind replied, ‘No, I just thought it was my stomach growling.’ They both laughed, realizing they were the only ones awake in that sleepy warehouse.

3. Late one night, as a delivery driver pulled up to unload pallets of toilet paper, he heard an ominous voice over the intercom: ‘Please be advised—your order contains extra-long rolls.’ The delivery driver shrugged and said, 'Sure thing!' He drove off, only to return moments later with a forklift and a confused look on his face. The next morning, everyone in the neighborhood found themselves holding extra-long rolls of toilet paper—except for Costco, who never mentioned it again.

4. Early one Sunday morning, as a delivery driver pulled up to unload pallets of pet food, he heard an unusual sound coming from inside Costco’s loading bay. Curious, he leaned in closer and saw something wiggling among the boxes—a tiny kitten, its eyes wide with fear. The delivery driver scooped it up gently, and soon the whole neighborhood was buzzing about the ‘Costco cat.’ Turned out, she’d been abandoned there weeks ago, but now had found her forever home with a kindhearted family.
