1984, says Wikipedia
Literally 1984
Well technically, if it hasn't changed since 1984 it has also not changed since 1985
Ok, but has it changed since 1986?
:P
Costco loses a good amount of money on the food. The CEO has principles.
The food court and samples is a loss leader, also it anchors people to the perception that Costco is cheap.
They loose money on the hotdog, but gain money on the foot traffic. It’s good for business at the end of the day.
Lose. They lose money.
No, no, you misunderstand, see: they spend all their lose change and while that causes them to loose money on the food, they gain in the long run.
Ahhh. This is what an aneurysm feels like.
Another is the rotisserie chicken which they put in the back of the store.
True dat. I always wondered why they don’t put the hotdogs in the back to lure people in - like IKEA.
It will be a sad day when they pass. The next in line almost never carries the same principles, they need to "prove themselves" and ruin so much for the customer in the name of profit :(
Loses.
They did get rid of the Polish option, which is too bad cause that was delicious.
What about the reverse Polish?
The sausage is the operator? Not the bun?
Dog hot beef all polish or soda 20 oz refill with and.
a man's gotta have a code
Changing to Pepsi wasn't worth no raising the price. Make it $2 with a coke.
I'm sure RC Cola would love the business
I'll take the crab juice.
They're both just awful
Wasn't?
Are you saying they raised it?
Theres a no before raising...
That's how that parses? God damn.
It makes more sense if you change the 'no' to a 'not', at least for me.
It sounds better if I read it in a heavy bayou accent
personally i prefer a scottish accent so thick you can headbutt it
Scrummy turn of phrase, that
They changed from Coke to Pepsi outside of Atlanta and did not raise the price. I'm saying it wasn't worth the change from Coke to Pepsi and would rather have a $2 hot dog and soda then a dollar fifty hot dog and toxic waste.
I did not know that. Haven't been to a Costco in a few years.
I feel like the quality will suffer if the price stays the same forever. Maybe not yet, but some day.
I miss the polish dogs so much :(
