Costco Wholesale

This is a busy location. I enjoy my shopping experience there and haven’t had any bad experiences yet. Go early hours or late hours (early morning or 1 hour before closing) if you want to avoid crowds!

This review is for Jose (Cashier) didn’t greet me or anything and asked for my Costco card which I handed over. While this is happening he tells me to place moré of my items on top which I did , mind you I didn’t want to over fill it because I have bread and other delicate items. So I did my best to place the items for him on top and filled the top till there wasn’t anymore space left. He then proceeds to scan my items and I quote him “this is why we make mistakes because yall don’t wanna help .” I have my family with me so I didn’t want to make it a big deal but now I ask Costco what kind of training do they provide because apparently it’s your clients fault your cashiers make mistakes scanning items. What ever happen to a nice greeting and maybe did u find everything u were looking for today? And maybe a have a good day.

I love going to Costco in different states, sometimes they have things you don’t find in your local Costco. I love Log Cabin syrup, it was in a 3 pack ( more manageable bottles) so I bought a pack to bring back to Wa. The one thing I didn’t like was the food court, it was outside which is fine ( S Cal it’s sunny), but the pick up process is a mess. You order at kiosk, your receipt has a number, but you get into a long line and hand your ticket and they get your order. The number on the receipt is obviously useless. The lines were long, about a 20-25 minute wait to finally make it to the counter to get food.

Welcome to Costco. I love you. That being said, Costco is a great place. Excellent warehouse store to buy quality products at reasonable prices. Plus they supposedly treat their employees well. However, this is probably one of the worst Costco locations by far, due to its location alone. Because of where it's situated, it's pretty much super busy at almost all hours of every day, especially during weekends. It's insane trying to find a parking spot, so you usually have to resort to parking further away. And it's so crowded here that sometimes the customers become super rude. Otherwise, I would highly recommend picking up a hot dog and soda for $1.50 on your way out.

Parking: painful exprience, jammed parking lot. rude people Merchandising: Visually awlful, price and quality not competitive to regular grocry store. Land Cashier: rude and with altitude Horrible shopping exprience!! I don't other costco but this location is off. Every corner is jammed and carts traffic. Somebody carelessly push their carts on my legs without say sorry. RUDE! Everybody was so busy browsing bewteen shelves and dont care if they block other's way or not. RUDE and so selffish! I can't understand why some people being so arrogant and priviledged when they shop in costco with their membership... feel like trashy place with full of junk food. Never like it and will never ...run away from it if you prefer better shopping exprience and being respect.

If you’re heading to the Alhambra Costco on Commonwealth, you need to understand that buying a 30-pound bag of toilet paper is merely the end goal; the actual membership experience is a death-defying, multi-lap parking lot scavenger hunt. This isn't just "no parking," this is a bloodsport where folks circle like vultures for thirty minutes, treating any reversing light like a personal invitation to war. I think I circled the lot so many times I actually burned off the calories of the free sample I was trying to get, and the real cost of my membership isn't the annual fee—it's the hour of my life I spend driving slowly behind a person carrying a single item who might, might, be leaving. It's the best bulk buying in the world, assuming you can survive the pre-game ritual just to get through the door.

Excellent products at excellent prices. Sometimes you have to buy in bulk which can be inconvenient. They have a gas station with the lowest prices but you have to be a member to purchase there. They also have an outdoor food court with delicious food at excellent prices. Everything is for members only.

It is never a pleasant experience here. There are no parking attendants so parking is atrocious. The design of the parking lot sucks. The people that work here are annoying because they all hate being at their job because they seem to hate the people that they serve(customers). They never have chicken cup of noodles in stock. I hate this place. If gas wasn’t a steal, I would cancel my membership today.
