AverageBen10Enjoyer's Saddest Subreddit of the Week: /r/Costco

As requested by @Wieoaka, /r/Costco is a sad subreddit. Everyone in it is a self-professed fan of Costco, either posting Costco memes or showing off their 5 litre tubs of mayo.

https://old.reddit.com/r/Costco/top/?sort=top&t=all contains the same generic barely-linked-to-the-subreddit current affairs stuff that you see at the top of every subreddit. You can trace modern American history through /r/Costco's top all time posts:

  • Celebrations about people being unable to return hoarded potty paper,

  • complaints about people not wearing masks 18 months into the coof,

  • "The morning after pill is $6 at costco pharmacy".

Here are some good posts that are a bit less topical:


Our Costco Baby Announcement! First pic was our announcement. Second pic was how I initially told my husband that we were expecting!

We decided to wear our Kirkland hoodies today and the manager loved our outfits so much we got name tags!

Some people REALLY like Costco.

The other commenters make me want to delete my Reddit account:

WHOA! HOLโ€™ UP!!!

Are those embroidered? Darn might have to get one.

2020 just got a little bit better, thanks for uploading this pic. I am waiting on 4 to be delivered, 3 of which will be christmas gifts for my wolf pack, the 3 best friends that anyone could have.


We got the idea from the Reddit. Brought our own onions to the food court.

Can't handle Super Bowl crowds (February 2021)

In which a Costco employee is angry that people are buying food to eat at home a year after the Coof.

We are in a pandemic, and Costco hasn't been regulating foot traffic in the store. We've had door counts yesterday over 500 people entering the store every 30 minutes. Whole families shopping together at once.

And they all are buying full carts of party supplies. Pork shoulders, multiple packs of drumsticks, carts full of beer and wine.

The denial is unreal. The apathy is ridiculous. This whole situation has restructured my views on people.

I work for Costco, and now I know for the first time that the majority of the people around me just do not care about my well-being.

I hate my country. I hate my state. I hate the ignorance of our members.

Enjoy your fricking parties


To whoever the sad troll is that just downvotes every single post, I will be making a point to offset your negativity from now on.

Old man shouts at cloud:

Not that karma means anything, but it just bugs me. I just sorted this sub by new, and basically all the new posts that hadn't been upvoted had a score of 0. Because the troll always downvotes.

Be better.


Oh and the memes are even worse than /r/IKEA's:

If I had a relative who was into Costco I'd buy one as a gag gift, wearing it in public is :marseycringe2:

Alienation and a lack of religion / spirituality has made people seek brotherhood and unity wherever they can. Costco provides a sense of belonging that those people need. May God forgive them :marseyimmaculate:

You clearly don't understand what it means to be spiritual. Religion is not the only way to connect with the divine. Some of us choose to connect with nature, or our ancestors, or the universe itself. And some of us don't believe in anything supernatural at all. We can still experience a sense of community and brotherhood without Costco. In fact, we don't need forgiveness from anyone, because we haven't done anything wrong.

I saw one in Public at a brewery yesterday. It blew my mind that they even existed, let alone had people wearing them. I even commented on it to my foid when we left.
