Costco membership, only eat from the food court.
No, its not the healthiest, but you could do worse, and uh... yeah, do the math on if you just only ate costco hot dogs and pizzas and such, 365 days a year, and that alone is well worth the yearly membership fee.
Maybe also buy some vegetables.
Frankly I'll be amazed if Costco can maintain their food court prices, I am pretty sure more and more people are just going to actually do something like this.
You don’t need a membership to eat at the food court
This used to be more true than it is now. More centers are requiring folks to enter through the main entrance and scan a membership card to enter.
Not all locations, but more are moving this direction. The two nearest me did within the last year.
Massachusetts costcos are required to allow liquor sales to the general public, you just walk in through the exit door, past the membership/cust service desks, and you hit the food court before the liquor area. They only check memberships cards at the entrance door.
I don’t remember if they make you scan your membership card at the food court or not; if not, I imagine than that’s also available to non-members.
This is why a lot of them have completely separate entrances. Local laws.
You can still do it with the pharmacy. Usually that's embedded in the 'health' (because almost none of it is really healthy) section.
