Costco has a huge, store wide QC /quality control problem: they put out scores of boxes of very green bananas on the floor , and let them sit there, ON THE SALES FLOOR, to ripen! Most people, other than my odd mother, don't eat or buy! very green bananas.
Hell-o Costco management !!
I bought some of their cheap $19 and 50ft hoses, but they kinked so bad even when new, that i took them all back, but one. It's my "wife can drive over hose"! Hoses that tend to kink,,, and Costco wants to sell lots,,, and not fix the problem,,, and sell more of a better product? I don't get it.
They introduce products they obviously have not eaten themselves! Do you remember the frozen , microwavable eggplant parmesan entree that , even if you microwaved them 3xs the recommended time, still tasted like shoe leather? The chili-corn bread entree by the same mfg was tasty, but they got rid of that one too. Yikes!!
And now they change a good , years and years of use, ok designed standard garbage bag liner,,, and MAKE IT WORSE !! What the heck are they doing in Corporate,,, taking long lunches?? The old version of the garbage pail plastic liner worked fine. But they added "tear stop technology", which is ok. And then they made the opening of #50787 kitchen bag HARDER TO STRETCH OVER THE RIM of the garbage pail/can/receptacle, whatever you want to call it !!
ok,,,OK,,, I know Costco is super-profitable and can have all these managers just standing around, shirking, at most of their stores. But making a popular product LESS USEFUL !? I called , emailed, no "yes, we are fixing this mistake."
Don't tell Steve Jobs.
