How does Sweden feel about being culturally enriched by an American big box store chain?

Canada, Mexico, UK, Japan, S Korea, Taiwan, Australia, and Spain have already tasted the Costco and can never go back.

Can you buy BBCs at Costco?

Paying money to save money.

America.

Wtf is a costco
>>
>>66683352
It's a membership-based discount grocery store chain specialising in bulk retail purchases
>>
>>66683352
Basically a Walmart, but with less choice and larger quantities. Think of buying a case of things at a time.

You pay an annual membership fee for the privilege of buying shit in bulk at a small savings.

Do Euros have room to store 144 rolls of toilet paper? How about 12 gallons of milk?

Costcos outside US/Canada have smaller packaging.

>>66683427
This basically. Costco also has the distinction of not treating its employees like absolute shit like Walmart does.
>>
>>66683457
This
Yanks pretend they invented most business ideas when in reality there's nothing new under the sun
>>
>>66683427
No, in britain most wouldnt have room anyway. We'd be lucky to have a patch of grass out the front of our house
>>
>>66683427
We have something similar which is already well established, maybe that's why we don't have many american stores
>>
We had something called SMART Club.
Its almost the same concept, except that Costco is membership only.

Its not that culturally enriching. The only thing that makes Costco special is that it tries to cater to both private consumers and enterprises.
I am not sure if their main enterprise gain is by not stocking wares with too shit quality, or extreme bulk shopping.
>>
swedes generally don't buy in bulk. still, will be interesting to see if they can compete with the almighty ICA.
>>
>>66683676
Costco won over other membership warehouse type chains because of their Kirkland Signature in-house brand.

They're almost always above average to very good quality at low to average-low prices.
>>
Never heard anything about it but it's too retarded for you to have made it up

What city?

>>
>>66683773

>>66683732
Doesn't sound too bad.
Less choice against higher quality? Its basically always better
>>
I want a publix.

>>66683897
Commie bullshit

I've never seen one of this in Catalonia.

>>66684527
There's only two in Spain: Madrid and Seville.
>>
>>66684527
It's nothing. They just opened another one just down the road from me. Everyone excited... and now 1 month later it's meh.

$60 every year to maybe, just maybe save that much by buying in bulk?

Nah.
