Because they are, they pay their workers a fair wage, give them good benefits, and give consumers reasonable prices when nobody else will. Pretty sure the entirety of the rest of the industry wants them to go out of business

Costco also didn't do the "yay we don't have to pretend to care about minorities anymore" rug pull that Target and others did, where they went out of their way to signal the dismantling of whatever DEI stuff they had previously implemented.

And a long-ass hot dog and drink for $1.50, or a slice of pepperoni pizza big enough to be a meal by itself for $2.

Costco is fantastic and I'll die on this hill wearing a Kirkland shirt.
