The only subscriptions I am willing to pay for:
Phone bill - no choice
Internet bill - no choice
Insurance - no choice
World of Warcraft - sue me
Costco membership - worth it
VPN - worth it
I don't pay for any others. Paid for lifetime Plex for the convenience of not needing to pay for a website domain like I would for jellyfin, and self host my own music, tv, and movies
Just got my Executive Membership rebate. It more than paid for the membership. We're basically shopping at Costco for free.
Furthermore, Costco employees will never push you to get the executive membership, if your previous year did not have enough spending on it to at least pay back the difference.
We actually had the Costco customer service Tell us to cancel our executive membership, because we didn't earn enough over the year
If somebody doesn't shop at Costco enough to justify the executive membership, I'm not sure the regular membership would be justified either.
That's kind of what we were thinking, too, which is why we went with it. We are a family of six, which means that we're always going to buy big quantities of stuff somewhere; might as well be at Costco.
But you could get so many hotdogs!!??!!
Actually I understand you can get the Hot Dogs without the membership. Which also blows my mind. Thry should just compete with Weinerschnitzel.
