Especially while carrying all the shit I buy at Costco.

That's what wagon bikes are for

Ah yes, I will spend a bunch of money n a cargo bike, and then try and cycle 9 km through my cities horrible streets with very few bike lanes, in the cold of winter, just to save a few dollars at Costco.

Great idea.

Or better idea, I can walk 3 blocks to the massive grocery store by my condo.

You seem really dedicated to shooting down solutions people are giving you. You're giving reasons people would have had no way to know (because you didn't mention it) and acting like they should have known. Ebikes are a great solution to a lot of people. Maybe not you though -- you can still appreciate the advice even if it doesn't apply to your specific situation. I hope in life you don't take this attitude towards helpful people.

Good luck with your groceries.

Well if that was a solution I would have mentioned it myself. Costco is not an option for everyone, myself included. That was the only point I was trying to make with my original comment.

The cargo bike would also help at the closest grocery store (:

But is entirely unnecessary for such a thing.
