It’s easy to call to complain. Take a minute & make the call to thank them. Today I saw a post from a friend in Ohio. She called Costco corporate to let them know that she fully supported their stance on DEI hires. The operator thanked her & told her they’re receiving lots of negative calls. 1/2 - ThreadSky

I support COSTCO,,, in fact I’m gonna stop and get milk, bread and $600 bucks of other shit I probably don’t need to show my support!

bbkayaker.bsky.social•21 days ago

So, milk, bread and 10 cartons of eggs....bring a little xtr$ for TP. 😁

choppermurman.bsky.social•21 days ago

😂😂😂

wittman98.bsky.social•22 days ago

You just described every visit to Costco 😂

choppermurman.bsky.social•22 days ago

That actually describes my very first visit to a COSTCO in Jersey with my brother.. his mission was milk and bread,,, when we left his bill was $740 and two carts full of “ stuff”

wittman98.bsky.social•22 days ago

Lol.. seems about right 😂

thankfulthinker.bsky.social•22 days ago

I usually take my sister for a "few" things. I inevitably spend more than she does. Together, we're spending on average $600 to $700 per trip. She appreciates that they have vegan choices.

choppermurman.bsky.social•22 days ago

There are loads of choices, and now that they have taken a stand on the side of human rights and not the side of that Prick’s administration. They have my business. If there are less MAGAs and Maple MAGA’s in the store,,, even better!

thankfulthinker.bsky.social•22 days ago

For those who diss vegan, my sister became vegan because her son pressured her. She was in her 60s & struggled with obesity all her life. She's steadily lost weigh: over 150 lbs at this point. She went from 4X to XL & is still shrinking! She doesn't need any medications, either.

0effs2give.bsky.social•22 days ago

Maybe for you because you can't control your spending. 🙄 Joint shopping with other households (family, friends) and then split up the bulk stuff. That's one way to do it. JS

wittman98.bsky.social•22 days ago

Learn how to recognize a joke before jumping in with meaningless insight.
If you can't, then maybe you're better off sticking to Facebook. JS 🤷‍♂️

I spent so much money at Costco this week and all the employees were happy and smiling. It was actually fun to shop there.

endora-laduce.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thank you. We will call.

delcavallo.bsky.social•22 days ago

I've done this numerous times over the years. People are usually floored, which means it's important to do.

When we went in to get our cards after signing up, we loudly exclaimed how happy we are being new members, and why. :) but I will call, too!

lisachambers55.bsky.social•22 days ago

I’m not really a bulk shopper but my mom likes to go so I’ve joined Costco to support their efforts.

sharoncarbine.bsky.social•22 days ago

If you eat chicken, you'll love Costco's rotisserie chicken.

lisachambers55.bsky.social•22 days ago

I know their cakes are popular too. And with higher prices, bulk shopping and freezing is going to be the way I need to start thinking about anyway

gaigreat.bsky.social•22 days ago

Me too

nancybcincy.bsky.social•21 days ago

Split things with family/friends. They’ll even subtotal items or you can pay for items separately. Easy to do and works great for ppl.

healingnation.bsky.social•22 days ago

We save our annual fee on buying their coffee alone.

sjsue.bsky.social•22 days ago

We buy gas at Costco whenever we are on the other side of town. We save at least $.25/gallon over other gas stations. That definitely saves us the cost of membership and then some!!

jovialstarfish.bsky.social•22 days ago

And random stuff like batteries and dish soap.

fmias.bsky.social•22 days ago

For me, it's the gas. My baby sips premium. I can make the membership back in a month sometimes.

sfshlv.bsky.social•22 days ago

Our household is small. But I can manage with bulk packages from Costco. I bought vacuum sealer and use it to divide into smaller and manageable portions. Then freeze those packages. I have been doing this since we became members.

alicechamber.bsky.social•22 days ago

Easier to shop there if you only bring in $100.0 cash.

farrahlostit.bsky.social•22 days ago

hangsolonm.bsky.social•22 days ago

I received a gift membership years ago, but never got around to activating it. Now that I'm boycotting Target, I went in yesterday to get started. It took a hot minute, but the support desk folks were super patient. I'm not a bulk shopper either, but they do have a lot of neat stuff there.

mcatherinel.bsky.social•21 days ago

We who have called have begun to turn things to the positive!!! HURRAH!!!!!!!!! #power2US

joycemillman.bsky.social•22 days ago

We joined Costco yesterday. When the clerk asked what made us decide to join, I told her that we liked Costco’s politics. She said that this is a common theme among folks signing up in the past few days.

clibourne.org•21 days ago

my fiance and i usually go to costco on friday nights because it's less crowded. today the line to sign up for membership was out the door so it seems like it's a working strategy for them

joycemillman.bsky.social•21 days ago

There was a line to sign up when we went on a midweek afternoon. Good to hear. I hope Costco doesn’t turn around and cave. I cancelled my Amazon Prime membership and am boycotting Target. I’m running out of places to shop.

djblue.bsky.social•22 days ago

Calling them today. I swear maggots are so hateful. How will it affect them for a company to have DEI. I cannot fathom the type of person that would complain about DEI when there are so many issues more important.

marie-atl.bsky.social•22 days ago

I am a 20+ year member who shops at Costco __Because__ they are fair to their employees. And 20+ years ago, I decided my household will Never shop at Wally World because of their employment practices.

Now Costco has reaffirmed my loyalty. So, I bought a few shares in the company. 😊

memamastergardener.bsky.social•22 days ago

I did one step better. I went to our new location and bought a membership and thanked them. I told them I was holding off but now I am here and thank you!

janepositively.bsky.social•21 days ago

Can't wait to call. I love thanking people.

momgnew4rtg56.bsky.social•22 days ago

i disagree, blindly supporting corporate dei policies without scrutiny can be misguided, and negative calls may be warranted if such policies are implemented unfairly or with bias.

hegelian1.bsky.social•22 days ago

Why is it that MAGA is so keen to show off their hatred and bigotry of those that are not like them, but we are so slow to show off our support?

We should be making every company that opposes DEI regret that decision.

And we should vocally support those that embrace DEI.

cupecoy4me.bsky.social•22 days ago

Can’t fix MAGA Moron. Stewing in their hatred because they are too lazy, too stupid or too inadequate to make their own lives better. Narrow minded and weak people who deserve nothing and demand everything.

We canceled Sam’s and moved our business to Costco even though (until 2026) we have to drive well out of our way to get there. Not everything’s about the money.

suzdes.bsky.social•22 days ago

I went to Costco today. Got up at 4:30 am, drove for 30 min to catch a ferry for a 90-min sailing, then drove for another 25 min to arrive at the closest location to me. I usually make this trek 1-2 times/month. No complaints. 😊

plusverb.bsky.social•22 days ago

I'm in the same boat. I will not have a Costco near me until at least the end of this year and the nearest one is 20+ mins away. The nearest Sam's is 8 minutes away. The nearest Target is a mile down the road. Doesn't matter - canceled my Target RedCard & Sam's membership. We're a Costco family now!

the0belisk.bsky.social•22 days ago

Controlling what we can control, right?? And that means not supporting bootlicking sycophant corporations and celebrities among many others! Great job everyone!!

bluefairyva.bsky.social•22 days ago

Exactly. I have several jaded family members who love to tell me, “you’re not gonna make any difference”. Yeah, we are!

xtine67.bsky.social•21 days ago

I just blew up at my son (whom I love very much) for the same “we’re not going to make a difference” comment. Grrrrrrrr

the0belisk.bsky.social•21 days ago

It’s understandable to feel that way. I think we all have those moments. Just remind your boy that it’s what they want us to think! Sometimes we’re the support & sometimes we need supportING. Sounds like you have a close relationship and you should be proud of that. It’s something none of them have!

plusverb.bsky.social•21 days ago

A lot of Gen Z feels that way and it's by design - the media keeps telling them they can't make a difference for a reason. It's because they CAN make a difference and that's terrifying to the status quo. I always say, no one can change everything, but everyone can change something.

pam88.bsky.social•22 days ago

cantse.bsky.social•22 days ago

I used to live 10 minutes drive away from 2 different Costcos. One we call the Indian Costco, the other Italian. CostSO has always had a diverse customer base and their products reflect the areas they serve. Why shouldn't their workers also reflect diversity. THANK YOU COSTCO!!

djewkes.bsky.social•22 days ago

I hope Costco's lawyers are calling those states attorney generals trying to pressure them into cancelling their DEI, and telling them if they want as large an employer as Costco, with all of their revenue and taxes paid to the states to leave, then they'll close up and leave the state. Or SFU!

mmanire.bsky.social•22 days ago

Regardless, they’re getting calls and it’s being reported. If people are calling threatening them and they’re not hearing from those who are thankful, it will have an adverse impact. Calling to thank them goes a long way. I hope you reconsider.

ohioblues.bsky.social•22 days ago

If you read my post I said I will gladly call. I was just in there yesterday and had words with the manager about how I support them 100% concerning their DEIA policies. I shop there at least once a week.

brambling2.bsky.social•22 days ago

It's in reference to the 'they'll be ok' part; sweetie, there is NO guarantee of that for ANYTHING anymore. We need to share every grain of gratitude we can

I showed my support for Costco by becoming a member this week for the first time every. A basic annual membership is only $65. We don't have a Costco super-near to us but they seem to have a good delivery program so I look forward to trying that out.

goseahox.bsky.social•22 days ago

While the executive membership is more expensive, the gift certificate they send you every year for 2% of your purchases makes it worth it. I've never paid out of pocket to renew since upgrading

autobot-tom91.bsky.social•22 days ago

I don't know where you live or if this is possible, but Costco delivers. I didn't know that until last year. Every few months, we get 3 or 4 huge boxes of stuff delivered to our home. It's made shopping so much easier.

unidentifiedburner.bsky.social•21 days ago

this is a great idea thank you!

autobot-tom91.bsky.social•21 days ago

Years ago I was working on my kids school auction and solicited Costco. I received a letter from Jim Senegal stating they don’t donate to auctions but enclosed was his personal donation of a $100 gift certificate. They’ve always been a great company and I’ve belonged since 1987.

mldoyle.bsky.social•22 days ago

I went to Costco yesterday, a Thursday at 1:30pm. For the middle of a week day, I wondered why it was so crowded. I'd had a hard time finding a parking spot. When I finally checked out, I noticed the member sign up desk had a line and the food court was completely full. Now I get it!

ellesbietta.bsky.social•21 days ago

I wish Costco wouldn't keep raising their yearly fee. It's almost unaffordable.

hollybcars.bsky.social•22 days ago

I’m sure they are getting a lot of negative calls. Complainers are always more vocal. The important numbers to watch are sales and membership growth.
I was already a member but I can tell you I’m already spending more at Costco and nothing at Target. And I was a weekly Target shopper.

mztexblu.bsky.social•22 days ago

Ya know, the nearest Costco is 2 hours away, but I think I will buy a membership ANYWAY!!

hollybcars.bsky.social•22 days ago

You can order from their website and they also sell travel on line which has great rates. So take one vacation and what you save pays for your membership.

gimmeesun.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thanks for this suggestion. I call in the morning.

lincolnlamb.bsky.social•21 days ago

Meijer sent me a survey after my grocery trip today. I told them I loved their inclusive hiring practices and would recommend them to everyone I know.

mythotica.bsky.social•22 days ago

Waiting through the silence right now to let them know how I'm glad they have stuck to their guns on this. I've had a membership here for a long time and glad to keep renewing.

lv4the1.bsky.social•22 days ago

Doing that right now

lizmattphilly.bsky.social•22 days ago

On my last trip to Costco I stopped at the management office to thank them.

kathy37k.bsky.social•22 days ago

I’ll call tomorrow! Much more fun than calling my senator’s office.

I do a lot of my shopping at Costco. I also get my prescriptions there and it’s also where I get my eyeglasses. Excellent service! Plus: free samples and the food court!

minkpie.bsky.social•22 days ago

made my call. they were so nice. they will ask your name to add to a positive comment list.

vatrueandblue.bsky.social•22 days ago

Please note times are Pacific take a minute to call today if you can ***be extra kind to person who answers (you know the red hats are trying to overwhelm them now!). If I were in that job and RWNJ called I would do my best perky voice and say “Today a case of Bud Light is on special on aisle 6”

vatrueandblue.bsky.social•22 days ago

Great idea I also submitted something on website

garyandover.bsky.social•22 days ago

We're doing the majority of our shopping at Costco now. Happy to hear they support DEI.

dawnsokol.bsky.social•22 days ago

Even better than calling Costco would be to go shopping at Costco. Heading there tomorrow. Will say thanks in person.

rhondaleep.bsky.social•22 days ago

Signed up last night and on our way there right now. It's about an hour and a half away, but I figure quarterly trips will be more than worth it.

mmanire.bsky.social•22 days ago

This is time for us all to call them with our support. I did. The operator thanked me for calling and took my name to give to their CEO. PLEASE take a minute to call: 425-313-8100. Press 0 for operator. Do not be put off by silence. Someone will pick up!! 2/2

squeevening.bsky.social•22 days ago

malibukitty.bsky.social•22 days ago

Just called to thank them. No hold music, just quiet, but an operator picked up in less than a minute, took my name, and thanked me. Easy experience 😁

mcatherinel.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thank you for including the contact information. I'll be calling tomorrow!

islandicies.bsky.social•21 days ago

Who boy they need some on hold elevator music! But done.

Honestly think I'm going to go try to get a job at Costco.

lalaisto.bsky.social•21 days ago

It’s a great job. Time and a half on Sundays. I believe they even get Labor Day off(as they should) I’m 53 and have many friends who have had that job since high school. Back when you could get a job at 16. They are still there and one is even a VP!

dickritchie.bsky.social•21 days ago

It'll be a far cry from my background - computer software sales - but I'm sick of working for shitty billionaires and I’d rather support a good company that will give back to my local community. ✊🏼

jenaihuff.bsky.social•21 days ago

My nephew in law works for Costco and has for years. They are a great company with really good benefits. Right now they are paying for his schooling to become a teacher.

dickritchie.bsky.social•21 days ago

That's awesome! Great to hear about the benefits as well. Any health insurance is better than the crap I have now.

nanasass.bsky.social•22 days ago

Called! Thanks for sharing this, I'm passing it on to all my pro-democracy groups!💙

rattgirl.bsky.social•22 days ago

Just called. The lady sounded very emotional and said "we stand by what we believe in."
So proud to be a member.

ladyrebellion2025.bsky.social•22 days ago

Calling tomorrow

tamawalker.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thank you for the number

heidiehaaland.bsky.social•22 days ago

Copied to my phone directory- thank you for the information

frickenchris.bsky.social•21 days ago

Just tried, just silence on the line. They must be getting inundated with calls.

rachahacha.bsky.social•21 days ago

The silence is normal! Just keep waiting and I promise someone will answer 🖤 You can also email the CEO at Deb Nielsen [email protected]. He’s personally responding!

nonnasjf.bsky.social•22 days ago

Done!!

nonnasjf.bsky.social•22 days ago

Calling tomorrow!

magmar40.bsky.social•21 days ago

I spoke with them by phone AND went to join today. Told the guy behind the counter too.
Couldn’t believe how busy they were on a cold rainy New England day.

veganelle.bsky.social•21 days ago

Just had an uplifting call with one of their corporate campus receptionists. She was lovely and appreciative. She said they’re getting more positive encouragement and encounters- it’s been brutal earlier this week. Please call!! And yes, long silence. I hit a few other digits after 3 mins. Worked!

stayscathed.bsky.social•22 days ago

I will call tomorrow.

roseyroseamund.bsky.social•22 days ago

Same.

occamsnailclippers.bsky.social•22 days ago

The only reason I ever set foot in Target is my CVS is inside. I never buy anything else.

vote4kindness.bsky.social•21 days ago

Done! And they were so appreciative and assured me they are going to keep fighting for what’s right!

Thank you for the contact info. I joined Costco specifically to support their DEI position... Will gladly let them know

rn-deb.bsky.social•22 days ago

We just joined on Sunday for the same reason and told the person helping us that. He also thanked us. I will call corporate too.

ritapeas1.bsky.social•22 days ago

My husband and I have been members for 20 years. It's a great place to shop! You won't regret it.

rn-deb.bsky.social•22 days ago

We have to drive 30 miles to shop there, but we will☺️

jeannewins.bsky.social•22 days ago

We are going to join Costco too. So disappointed in Target.

bluesgirl.bsky.social•22 days ago

We should also call Target and let them know that.

time4sanity.bsky.social•22 days ago

Excellent idea!!!! Target Corporate is 612-304-6073!!!

katiewhittemore22.bsky.social•22 days ago

itsfrenchy.bsky.social•22 days ago

The failed when they pulled pride products a few years ago over criticism. It was litmus test. You cower once they know they can get you to fold from the right angle. Standing on business is hellish work but it’s what has to be done. Or we stop feeding them our money. Longterm. Takes a longtime to

jeannewins.bsky.social•22 days ago

Have you seen this app yet? They've made it easy to reach out to the companies and tell them how you feel, too.

itsfrenchy.bsky.social•22 days ago

Kill big companies but I won’t eat Chik-Fil-A. Used to spend a fortune at Hobby Lobby. Not a penny in ten years. Target benefited immensely from that from me alone. No longer. Something else will spring up. You’ll find individuals & independents. Even if they don’t go bankrupt, they never bounce

clairfraser.bsky.social•21 days ago

Agree. Same here. These 47 supporting companies do not get my money.

time4sanity.bsky.social•22 days ago

Never had a Chik-Fil-A, also used to spend a lot at Hobby Lobby...not a penny now for well over a decade. Love Target...now they're on my "hell, no" list, and Home Depot is dead to me.

americalost.bsky.social•22 days ago

Yup. Same. Amazon. MSM too. I will only buy necessities and 2nd hand if I need to replace something. Not participating in this bullshit.

itsfrenchy.bsky.social•22 days ago

Back completely. CEO’s get fired. It takes a long time for new businesses to level up but they do & make money & oust old staples because those staples refused progress. Evolve or die. Their mistakes start snowballing into really bad reputations. The final cost for them will be bankruptcy lawyers.

yermomsez.bsky.social•22 days ago

I freakin LOVE Costco!!

norskymom.bsky.social•21 days ago

magmar40.bsky.social•22 days ago

Me too! Canceled Prime last week, joining Costco today.

itsahaulout.bsky.social•21 days ago

Thank you for posting this - you're right about making calls to say thank you when something's done right. I pressed 0 and waited for an operator who was helpful. I made my statement and named the specific store I shop at.
Bonus: the hold music is Opus No. 1!!

hooaharmy.bsky.social•22 days ago

Yesterday, in CT, at 1:00 pm, I could not find one parking space at my local Costco. We know the assignment.

rattgirl.bsky.social•22 days ago

Same here, shockingly enough in Texas, 2:30pm yesterday. And the Target lot was 3/4 empty.

We still have some good folks here.

bluecarcharodon.bsky.social•22 days ago

I talked to them. Shared my appreciation. Not currently a member and so had them transfer me to membership. Shared appreciation again. They were polite :)

resistanceck.bsky.social•22 days ago

I was in Costco and asked to speak with a manager, with a smile on my face but I still think they thought I was going to complain but instead I personally thanked them and asked to share with the CEO. We chatted awhile,they truly appreciated each encouraging message. Make a call! Small actions!

sfshlv.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thank you for the contact information. I am not only a member but also a shareholder. I will call them and show appreciation for their policies. I will keep supporting the company.

vikingkim5.bsky.social•21 days ago

Oh my gosh! They were so appreciative! I visited the Albuquerque Costco last weekend with my daughter and plan to join! Thanks for the number. It took less than a minute.

reginafelangee.bsky.social•21 days ago

Called today to let them know how much I appreciate their stance and that I have never been more proud to be a Costco member. They are taking names (with your permission) to give to the CEO.

hangsolonm.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thank you for posting this! Just gave them a call; I think they're fielding quite a lot at this time. I told them that I sold my (measley) Target stock, bought theirs, and a membership yesterday now that I'm boycotting Target and Walmart. Operator was very happy to add me to their support list.

skybluern.bsky.social•22 days ago

Thanks for the contract info 💙

genxgen.bsky.social•21 days ago

Done, thank you for sharing this info!

itsfrenchy.bsky.social•22 days ago

I didn’t think of this, wouldn’t have. Everything is so dizzying but it’s so blatantly brilliant. While we’re criticizing the wrong harder we’ve got to take the time to thank those that are taking the right stand. Membership isn’t enough. Thank you’s go a long way in the feedback & for the employees

mercime.bsky.social•22 days ago

It makes a HUGE difference. Positive feedback & support makes others want to do right.

lindawarner.bsky.social•21 days ago

You mean the place Trump just said he wants to level? Good job, moron.

gayfesh.com•21 days ago

i voted harris, but i abhor people who glaze the biden administration while he actively funded and supplied a genocide. you can recognize the democrats are better than the republicans without saying they're good.

lindawarner.bsky.social•21 days ago

Again, good job, moron for perpetuating the misguided disdain for the Biden administration while we're mired in the horrors of 47. Willing to bet you spoke out like against the Biden administration, which included Harris, just like you did here. How many agreed w/ those comments & voted Stein?

gayfesh.com•21 days ago

i cant believe me criticizing the biden administration had more of an impact than a billion dollar presidential campaign run by the democrats. it is their job as a political party to convince people to vote for their candidate and they failed to do that.

PLEASE have higher standards.

kanelawless420.bsky.social•21 days ago

So you say you "voted harris."

kanelawless420.bsky.social•21 days ago
