Some Costco members have had bad experiences with employees when they try to exit, even if they didn’t purchase anything. One Redditor said they didn’t find what they were looking for, so they walked out through the entrance instead of the exit. Here’s the conversation that followed:
“The door lady: Are you getting a cart?
Me: no.
The door lady: Well you are supposed to exit through the exit.
Me: Oh I’m sorry, I will next time.
The door lady: Please go back and exit that way.
Me: You would like me to reenter the store and go around and exit through the exit?
The door lady: Yes.
Me: No.”
The real kicker to this silly exchange? “This entire conversation occurred while I was outside of the store.”
