Costco is quietly slashing prices. This feels wrong

I go to costco every week. it's probably the only thing i do consistently. i've been doing it for years, i know how the prices move. lately? everything's discounted. i'm not talking promo tags or little manufacturer markdowns — i mean
whole shelves of items dropped 20-40%. across categories. not seasonal either.

this isn't normal. prices are supposed to be going up with tariffs, inflation, shipping costs, whatever. instead they're dumping inventory. aggressively. either demand is collapsing or something upstream is forcing their hand.

it just doesn't make sense. it feels off. maybe i'm overreacting, but i've never seen price drops like this since i started going. if this is what it looks like at costco - the most stable, boring, buy-in-bulk fortress of consumerism — then i don't really want to know what's coming next.

maybe it's nothing. but probably not.

Costco has a policy of maintaining a sub 15% margin on all their products

Why is reddit the way that they are? I have never seen a group of people who claim so vehemently to be left-wing act like such corporate stooges.

And then one day
for no reason at all

deflation.jpg - 632x394, 66K

Literally see the same thing constantly now. Walmart literally faked ALL of its price increases to drum up Anti Trump supporter in the most openly manipulative way possible because CEOs have the audacity to think some of us are that stupid which has already cost them basically everything already

They are squeezing as much value out of the currency as they can to tank its value before making a new one

Redditors are then end result of whites having it too easy for too long. They have no goals, no life, no challenges or hardships. They simply exist as midwit consumers and econimic units. They unironically should kill themselves.

If Costco's slashing prices why are they still more expensive than other places for most things unless you buy more than you need?

it has bad actors posting on it 24/7 creating and directing narratives in order to divide and conquer

Costco saw a chance to completely obliterate Walmart and decided it was worth the money.

Walmart has been egregiously jacking up prices 50-100% in response to 10% tariffs (which I don’t have time to explain, but never results in a 10% increase in price).

Deportations and govt programs cut means less brown people with gibs buying up all the food meant for honest hard working white people.

you should look up the definition of the word "wholesale"

nigger you've been spamming this shit for TWO YEARS atleast

you wish

Simple mate.
Redditors are nonces.

too stupid to realise that the price slashing is to recover sales, because people stopped spending.....

Home.depot is doing the exact same thing.

Chinks are doing okay though?

Lower prices are bad

Costco starts accepting food stamps

every isle becomes clogged with beaner trash

Costco raises the prices and slashes the quality because who cares beaners aren't paying for it anyway

Trump threatens to cut food stamps to beaners

OYYYYY VEYYYY!!!!!!

QUICK GOLDBERG

CUT THE PRICES

GET THE WHITE PEOPLE BACK IN HERE ASAP

WE ARE SO FUCKED

Yeh fuck Costco. I canceled that when they were letting boomers walk out with 2 carts full of toilet paper during covid. I've heard its gotten significantly worse since the egg shortage too. I used to love that store but it turned into another walmart.

how come retards like OP don't understand moving volume at lower prices generates more profit than moving small quantities at larger. take Dollar store as an example

aieeeeeee why is everything becoming cheaper drumpf was supposed to make everything more expensive nooooooooooo don't make my live better orange maaaan

They are so soft skinned. I once tried to use them just for an audiophile sub, and first off, everything was some shit off Drop or Best Buy, nothing actually good. They don't set up systems well either and care more about RGB than treatment. You can just go to a real hifi store and find out what sound stage really is for free, but no, they would rather deny it and be upvoted by a retarded zeitgeist than actually learn anything. me: "The Audeze LCD-2 run off a SET tube amp will have a much larger sound stage than the Senn 6xx on a Schiit Modi/Magni stack" -5 Faggot redditor: "lol Soundstage is a made up term by snake oil salesmen. You have no power here meme" +12

If you don't follow, that's fine but it was obnoxious at best. I have had both those things and what I said is very true. Most of them, on the other hand, have to save up for a $200 purchase so they have never actually used a good headphone amp before and default to cheapo stuff. It might be good for the money but to deny what a $4k setup offers and call is snake oil is just ignorant and stupid.

I got banned within a month because somebody was asking if X amp would match X speakers, and I said I had Y amp with Y speakers, but the impedance match and efficiency were similar, and driver materials/design the tube type and architecture were similar. I said something along the lines, "Due to the similarity, I expect it will be a great match and sound good as long as you place them symmetrically and treat the first and second reflections, it might even have some holographic depth to them."

I got banned because I mentioned more expensive gear in someone else's post and it might make them feel bad. People with such thin skin shouldn't even be possible. These coddled fucks.

You’re retarded. That’s literally the whole point of costco

OP, do you have any replies?

No proof. Shit just goes on clearance all the time at the place. A dumb simp post.

Families and businesses aren't buying more than they need. Single people (like you) don't shop at costco because you're only feeding yourself. Of course it would be a waste for you to buy from there.

a fun thing to do is to go to r/anticonsumption and watch them twist themselves in knots to come up with reasons why its bad for drumpf to cut off the flow of chinese plastic bullshit

im just going to take some random post from who knows where at face value cause i think it puts skin in my culture war game

look at what you have become

Recessions cause deflation on prices as there are fewer people buying goods and services. Its basic bitch tier economics. But every time a recession hits the feds print to the moon and flood the corporations (not you) with money to generate 'jobs' (like 10% of that money at best) and get companies to stabilize their firing. Which allows things to settle down and corporations stop firing tens of thousands of people at once. Or banks stopping giving small loans to smaller businesses or tightening on them when they can least carry it. Sometimes even they hire a few back.

Thus the recession is... frozen, for a time. This allows inflation to continue up and allow business as usual. Namely wealth extraction and extortion of the population while claiming everything is fine. But its only monetary inflation.

The US has been in a recession since the 70s. With a temporary blip in the late 90's when productivity skyrocketed one thousand percent over a decade and before the financial rent seekers put their claws into it and stole that profit from the workers.

What you are seeing right now is the system recognizing if they keep infusing money into the economy hyperinflation could being. Since they are not, the recession is opening up its deflationary response's due to plebs not having money and not having jobs. Ignoring the problem is fixing the problem according to your elites after all.

The big push to get china and russia back on the dollar plantation is to force them to bend knee to kike inflation and absorb it like good little client states so they can do another round of money printing. Without that money printing the elites have nothing. Theres no real economy in the US and most of the west left. So if it bursts, they lose power. Literally, no oil means the lights turn off.

They REALLY don't want those lights to go off.

they still more expensive than other places

They're usually the cheapest option for solid products unless you get aggressive with coupons and deals. Or go for a race to the bottom like Aldis.

It's mostly bots anon, the idea is to flood actual people with so many posts supporting a given thing that those people start supporting it themselves, and the entire site is set up so that people who disagree with this bot spam have their posts hidden or outright removed. For a while I was on a user list that got mass mailed a new subreddit each time the old one was banned. The topic reddit felt necessary to stamp out completely? Right wing memes.

It's unironically a psyop site.

reddit.png - 1120x390, 57.31K

maybe it's nothing. but probably not.

I fucking love this retarddit film noir script writing !

OP is a stupid fucking bot that literally copy pasta’d a Reddit post with a subsequent screenshot to boot. Fucking spammer cunts just like the twitter spammers.

deflation is a black hole to a debt based economy built on monetization and inflation with no sound industrial backing.

You should look it up. Kinda kino how it'll kill the kike empire. Those sadly if you are not aware of how it will work in your direct life, being enslaved to the jew system. Once deflation has hit and cannot be stopped(on things you don't need only), hyper inflation begins on everything you actually need. So you won't be able to afford any of those lower prices anyway.

Its a blender and your stuck inside it.

how exactly are they planning to make Russia/China back into dollar cage? Russia/China been conducting business between themselves without dollar since 2018

It just feels off

Costco is not a grocery store, its a wholesale shop. Its basically just a warehouse that also happens to sell stuff in bulk directly to end users. Factories and industrial bakeries also tend to have their own shops that sell produce directly to locals and the prices are often much cheaper because the logistics chain is much shorter than a grocery store.

Thats why its cheap, because the price does not have one extra truck expense and one extra shop chain looking for profit.

They sure as hell aren't in Canada.

I mean this with complete seriousness reddit is probably around 50 or 60% bots/political marketing compants posting on sock accounts.

It used to be bad before the whole API thing went down but at that time it was only probably around 30%, a fuck ton of people stopped using the site after that so it is LITERALLY like a majority of the sites traffic are these bots and political activist companys. I never was super active on reddit but it was very easy to tell how bad it became after I decided to check it back out after the whole api thing you could see the dramatic difference in posts basically every single subreddit has dropped down to like 10% of the traffic and posting activity it used to have EXCEPT the askreddit and other subreddits like there where VERY OBVIOUS paid for political posts are made and artifically upvoted

They used to call themselves "fiscal conservatives, but socially liberal" back in the day. Now, we just call them faggots.

Costco is more expensive for everything...people that shop at costco have no idea because they only go to costco. People at costco even wait in line for 2 hours to save 5 cents a gallon on gas.

This. Our entire "economy" (using this word loosely here) is now nothing more than a collection of worthless assets propped up by artificial money-printed hyperinflation. Our economy, and the entire global market, was supposed to collapse for good back in 2008, so to prevent that they came up with the solution known as Quantitative Easing (money printing) and they've been artificially keeping us afloat ever since with money and inflation printed out of thin air. They hid the effects of this well during the 2010's but the latest round of money printing after COVID really exposed the cracks in the system and now the whole scam is starting burst at the seams nearly 20 years later since 2008. Artificially suppressing recessions since 2008, with no release valve to flush the trash out of our markets, has now made our economy unrecognizable from what it once was decades ago- now degraded to nothing more than a circus of Twitch Streamers and OnlyFans models with an army Doordash driver slaves at their disposal.

Trump failed with the tariffs and prices are just going back to normal
this redditor is too retarded to see that he won

I didn't say they would manage to do it. The last ten years is replete with their 'plans' on how to do it and their utter failure at succeeding. I just said that was their goal since they have to do it. The alternative system no reliant on jew dollars means other nations can stop inflating their own dollars away, especially when inflation really hits hard.

And for added bonus, all those deflated items on sale can be bought with their hordes of stored jew dollars, causing even more of an inflationary push in the West for whomever don't join.

It's quite entertaining and people have warned against this coming for decades. But that would stop the jews from enslaving the goy, making a kings ransom each off of extortion and underwriting the flooding of subhumans into white homelands to rape and undermine any future white nations.

My pic is what you should really be thinking about if your stuck in the west. If you don't chase that, glory, you are going to be eaten alive. Or outright enslaved like the serfs in soviet russia when the jews won their civil war and started purging millions of vile whites who didn't rise up to kill them. You either capitalize on whats about to happen, or you are gonna end up in a ditch.

Reddit queers are permanently broken

who claim so vehemently to be left-wing act like such corporate stooges.

That is left wing

I saw choice (equivalent to AAA Canada) strip loin for $21/lb recently in the US. That's much more expensive than what you posted. Maybe some Americans can confirm that they're able to get choice strip loin for less than $14.50 a pound.

Holy crap. So we're all getting fucked.

absurdo reductum

prices are supposed to be going up with tariffs, inflation, shipping costs, whatever. instead they're dumping inventory. aggressively. either demand is collapsing or something upstream is forcing their hand.

that we are made to listen to peabrains attempt and fail to reason in the higher echelons of thought is evidence of a spiritually offensive attack on our psyche. a system which foments this does not arise by mistake. we are being held at gunpoint and locked in a room with flailing, dangerous retards.
the people responsible for this need to be removed from power. democracy is one of the worst ideas ever conceived by man and it MUST end in order for humanity to survive

Seems that way, a few years ago in the US I'd see it for $10 a pound. But I'm on the west coast so it's probably cheaper in other parts of the US. But it has definitely gone up in the US and going there is less of a deal now.

Kamala got $1.5b from corporations and they still don't notice

It's sad I got a membership there and almost everything there is crap and not much cheaper than walmart. I only keep the membership for protein and gas, because walmart near me doesn't have gas or cheap protein. Even the meat and milk is cheaper at walmart. It's SAD.

EVERYBODY START BURDENMAXXING IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS NOT A DRILL

Start stealing and become a burden on society. First thing you should do is quit your worthless wagie job. Don't bother applying for benefits, welfare or any other government assistance unless you really can't help yourself. I personally prefer to also GHOSTMAXX, no properties in my name, no hand outs, no benefits, no taxes, just living in the shadows of society and outside of the system as much as I can, but I digress. Simply take everything you need from big corporations, resell it and enjoy life. Hit their jew warehouses and megastores and become an honest reseller. Make sure to post about it and encourage more people to become burdens like you. Once enough people do this, their system collapses. Also always remember how over half the population got vaxxed and sided with the government? make them pay and enjoy it too. This is how you get back at the jews, the governments, the corporations, the normie cattle and everybody else who wronged you.
youtube.com/watch?v=NTV2S2OtrfM

There is nothing more that jews and their wagie cattle fear than you anon taking a big fat shit on their jewified society, never forget that.

able to get choice strip loin

That's dog food. There's no marbling and just a strip of fat.

for less than $14.50 a pound.

No idea about strip loin but this is the right price for beef that has decent marbling and isn't on sale. Actual steak. Not dog food.

OH NO THE FIAT SYSTEM IS MEETING ITS INTENDED END EVERYONE PANIC

This is a good thing, you fucking spineless germ. Cucked jew faggot nigger

My grocery bill has been decreasing desu senpai.

only people that allow to be enslaved are those that have family kids to worry about. large portion of millenials, zoomies, genas are without family and with nothing to lose. I don't even think there was more than 30% compliance with covid, it only appeared so because businesses demanded you wear cuck mask because gov't told them as we now know. another example is the tranny movement, last year it appeared as if 80% of the country supports trannies but reality is that percentage is under 10 and MSM made it appear wide spread

You absolutely can get cheap shit at Walmart, but for bulk and cost/quality ratio Costco is better

Those are all the good corporations that love BLM and VAX mandates

Deflation is a good thing.

Great for solo too. Prep and freeze

It’s likely more than 50-60%, same as this shithole. There are so many worthless subhuman jews posting here. Get a real job you faggot kikes reading this.

You even downvoted it you stupid reddit fag

Damn, sucks for debt baggies. Couldn't be me.

It's not about what's good or not, it's about comparing the equivalent grade to the image provided in price.

Why are you lying so hard? They've got a lot of high quality kirkland brand stuff, and all around lower prices. $5 for a massive bag of doritos for instance, walmart is probably $4-5 for 1/3 size bag. Often get the Dave's killer bread for $8 / 2 loaves, they're $6+ at walmart.

protein

OH, awesome.. Costco has a great selection of bulk meats that you cannot beat. You can get a 40lb box of Halal chicken thighs for $1/lb or thereabouts. Walmart is $2.75-3.25 /lb avg.

The pizza if far and away better than walmart take & bake stuff... In the US we call this a hot carl.. huge costco pizza + chicken wings for $30? you may as well slap your momma, anon.

I dunno I just don't buy that much regularly. Also costco doesn't have 2L bottles of soda, so I get those at walmart, and they do have cheap energy drinks but they're gay shit like celsius so I put up with it. Better than monster in terms of price.

Quality wise walmart actually has decent ribeye, about as good as Costco, but they really do better for NY strip steak and I'm on a cut so I go for that right now. Maybe when I bulk I'll get a big pack of ribeyes but even then, steak is expensive to be eating every day.

my local store has strip for $12/lb usually and as low as $7/lb on sale

I go to costco every week

Kys nigger

Costco is a big DEI player and refuses to back off of it even with the recent backlash against anti-White, anti-male discrimination.

Since I learned of this, I refuse to buy there. I haven't been all year and I have dissuaded my wife from going several times.

have 2L bottles of soda, so I get those at walmart,

Stop it

Halal chicken thighs

get back to me when I can go into my local Costco and pick up a 3 pack of NY strip loin steaks for $36.00. LIKE BEFORE THE WEF WHO TYRANNICAL LOCKDOWNS.

I hate lower prices. They're harmful to the global economy.

Complaining about things getting cheaper again

Goddamn normies, stop fucking everyone over for once. Prices are supposed to drop.

this thread again

I need to get my tendies though anon what am I supposed to do

Destroying the jew system of control over whites requires a great deal of pain. Since it wasn't done decades ago, the pain only increases. And much of that pain will now come with mass starvation and civil wars. Yes, that is a good thing. Not due to the loss of whites who will surely come at such a thing. But to give opportunity to cleanse our nations of the jewish rot that infects it. If you wanted it to be not painful, you had to fix our system decades ago, likely before the 90's even.

If you hold off on it anymore, the worse it gets once it pops, and ever day more and more whites die out or are pushed out of producing children. There are NO alternate routes available now. You either embrace it and secure an existence for your kin while erasing your enemies who caused this, or you condemn your kin to extinction. Simple as.

Its going to get painful. Moreso than you can imagine. And that is good.

I try not to eat a lot of goyslop so I mainly buy steak and chicken breast (I have too much rice already)

eating bread in 2025

if you must not just making it at home

Yeah sure you can get a lot of processed food in bulk cheap but it's poison, so why get it? By protein I meant protein powder and shakes and to be fair they have good prices.

It's zero caffeine zero sugar, basically carbonated water with food coloring. But 2L is the optimal soda bottle size anyway. Cans are fucking fake and gay.

's zero caffeine zero sugar, basically carbonated water with food coloring.

STOP IT

It's a bad habit I know.
I did get a good reverse osmosis water filter system to get the hormone disruptors and fluoride out of my water but I need the fizzy sweetwater.

At least it's not sugar or corn syrup.

uses an objectively correct image

I went to gas station and it cost me $10 to fill up my motorcycle instead of $20 like it was few months ago. I feel like a fucking poor bum paying $10 and it was embarrassed, kept my head low as I paid and quickly got as far away as possible from gas station before someone recognized me

You know how we have people like Jordan Peterstein on the right who gatekeep and make sure we stay kosher? They did that in the 1960’s with the left. Essentially turned into into cucked activists and shit. It was another CIA gayop.

LOL

IMG_6641.jpg - 500x436, 64.43K

expires within a week. no one buys, meat thrown away. kikes seething because they rather throw away rotten meat than lower prices

cropping the post

Look I love Trump and hate redditors, but this post was from a GME sub where they want a happening so that the hedgies are forced to buy back the shares or whatever. They're not complaining, they're hoping something is HAPPENING.

If that's cheaper than selling more at lower price, that's what they'll do

yeah, I remember it was cheaper for them to dump milk than to deliver it during covid

If they toss it away they get tax cuts on it. If they give it away, no tax cut.

They should, fuck walmart
They might also realize that low prices = less DOJ pressure over dei

what a strange jew reality we're living in. abundance everywhere but can't let people benefit from it because profits come first

One of the founders literally threatened a CEO with murder for coming up with the idea to raise the price of the hot dog so I don’t know what he’s expecting.

Then why has every country that experienced it suffered decades of economic hardship and never recovered from it?

boomers are dying, the US real estate bubble is currently being maintained by hedge funds, we won't see a japan era crash because we already shipped out a lot of our production jobs, so we will ride a deflation wave into prosperity instead of the other way around

Economic hardship is having the same wage while the food you eat and the electronics you buy also stays the same price

Nobody owes you anything

because deflation doesn't happen in a vacuum. japan's deflation happened because they went from producing fucking everything that had 2-4 wheels or an electric cord for 30 years into all that shit being made in china in 10 years
they put all their money into real estate and so when they tried to extract money the entire industry collapsed
that's an example, but deflation is usually preceeded by some massive economic, societal, political or environmental shift

Leftism is a legitimate political view point but Dems basically run their party like a cult so must leftists really aren’t allowed to voice their own opinions even in private
You wonder why there are endless “humiliation rituals” ?? Well Reddit is the answer

I hate to see anyone lose their job but Walmart needs to go out of business

and I don't owe anything to anyone yet jew keeps extracting my life source and my money from me with force

I mean, good luck

Redditors and leftists malding that things are getting less expensive because we no longer have a money-launderer/third worlder importer-in-chief. All but confirms what I've always thought in that they've just been rooting the whole time for this place to fail.

Not the first time walmart has intentionally sold at a loss to pursue a goal either.

Yep. It’s so obvious. Political messaging is now in literally every subreddit

Reddit has only one use case for me and that is for absurdly niche questions and answers relating to niche topics.

The same way old BBS forums are worth searching through. You have a question about a specific problem with a piece of software or a specific glitch/issue with a game released in 2005? Reddit and old BBS forums are the only place you are gonna find a usable answer.

Anything to do with news, politics, or really any non niche hobby/software related question reddit is completely useless.

For example I was recently learning about glitches in the Original God of War game on the Playstation 2 which came out in 2003 I think and reddit was the only place on the internet besides a single thread on gamefaqs that had the answer to my question.

@grok is this true?

trump announces tariffs

prices go up

trump chickens out and removes the tariffs

prices go back to normal

how is this surprising?

Front page is always 95% preplanned there. I'm sure you're aware of the Ghislaine Maxwell suspicions, made even more suspicious given the work of her sisters. Let alone what happened to the cofounder.
Reddit can still be useful for niche expertise topics, but even in many of those corners shills and marketers have an influence.
There's a team of fuckwits who repost various reddit threads of the day on Anon Babble. Every single day. Always with the OP image, usually with the subject slightly modified. Our glorious janitors never touch these threads.

This post is older than that, dummy

Most MIGAtards still believe the tariffs are in effect

Reddit is full of people who will never be happy even if they get what they want. If they ask for a Lamborghini and get it they will complain about the color. Just like the acceptance of transgender people compared to other countries, they complain that straight men don't want to fuck them.

Camille Paglia has more or less touched on this - how she was outcast for not towing the line. More recently Doom Scroll on youtube is a decent source of actual leftist critique of the mainstream left. I keep mentioning them on Anon Babble because there's a general consensus among those leftists that idpol is more a detriment to focus on real class issues. Which is exactly what the mainstream 'left' (liberal, or basically just a branch of neoliberalism) doesn't like.

Don't sweat it anon.
The rise of AI will have all the power in the schizos hands and the manufactured bs on the internet will be made visible in ways you can't even imagine
These types of sites are bot farms and this is a low hanging fruit once someone starts actual analysis on posting patterns.
Its already dead, so many 1M+ boards with <1k active. But its a principle of the thing. Plus wikipedia needs to be put in the ground.

not him but ''russia'' or rather putin and kremlin elites are eager to go back so they can spend their extracted wealth in the west where their $$$, children and houses already are

This, I’m just happy most Whites aren’t having children.

You are simply incorrect.

Egg prices go up

“This is your fault chuds”

Egg prices go down

“This doesn’t feel right, nothing good should ever happen to me”
Fucking KEK, is there a mind more buckbroken than a leftist?

are you implying that Costco figured that out in the past month or two? Or are you even dumber than somone that you just called a retard?

They unironically should kill themselves.

Also, can you explain why Dollar General and Dollar Tree have lower EBITDA margins than Home Depot?

It's weird that Costco's gross margin is half that of Walmart's

ok retard

wait in line for 2 hours

Mine takes not even 5 minutes and that's when it's busy. Then again, I don't live in Jew York or LGay.

5 cents a gallon on gas

I get it at least 20 or 30 cents cheaper than most places around here.

Is "taco" the new "weird"?

Deflate those interest rates please

Aldi's quality is top tier though. Mutton from New Zealand for 4 dollars a pound. Baked goods straight from Germany made with only real butter for 2-4 dollars there. Pork, chicken and dairy is especially cheap there if you are on a budget. All top tier food.

14.99 usually at the local coop.

Walmart fucks over customers because "Tariffs"

Costco doesn't

Guess where the customers are going?

They are really good.

what kinds of items are you buying?

since 2008 crash the left and the corpo have been in an alliance

Its more like the big stores are all competing at like 4% margin, but it doesn't matter since they have scale

Isn’t the answer then to have just let it go boom and pick up the pieces? Is there any bigger picture reason behind not wanting it to go boom at that moment? Not like the system was made healthy by it. Or are feds just cucks who can’t accept getting their hands dirty?
