Costco enjoyer here. The samples are fucking annoying. They always setup at the end of isles and that clogs up the flow. It's always the same type of people waiting with their carts jammed in and blocking shit you're actually trying to buy while they wait for a single sesame cracker or some dumb shit. People don't even look at what's being sampled they're just there for anything free. It's infuriating. They should put all the samples in a line somewhere out of the way so normal folks can get on with it.

Absolutely 100% agree. I get it they want people to try it out and buy but it is just a pain and people don't know how to act in public.

Id like to see Costco raise the membership by 10 bucks and then give a $10 discount to anyone who watches a video on how to act in that store, they could use the money from. The raise in membership to pay for the video cause I'm sure most people wouldn't watch it.
