Costco shame

The feeling you get when you’ve already picked up everything you need from Costco but continue shopping and your bill is three times what you expected.

The feeling you get when you unload your car after a Costco run and you hope noone sees the excessive amount of bulk merchandise you’ve purchased for a family of two.

costco gorging

Tasha went to Costco to buy her veggies and tampons. It took her so long because every aisle was over run with old people and turban wearing Indians Costco gorging. She almost got trampled by three old ladies.

Costco Privilege

Coscto Privilege is like White Privilege but it involves people who back up traffic at a Costco Parking lot in order to save walking 10 extra feet. People who exercise this privilege, instead of getting a bit more actual exercise by walking a few feet, usually drive large SUV's with "My Kid's an Honor Student" bumper stickers.
Dammit, you see that soccer mom in her SUV. There's 10 cars behind her that have to wait because of her Costco Privilege.

I went in to Costco with 5 items on my list. I walked out with 15 items and spend $200 more than I should have spent after Costco whispered to me - buy me!

Costco Syndrome

Psychological syndrome where you buy things you've never used, will never use or never use the amount you purchased before it goes bad but are completely happy about it.
"Why are you doing a new room addition?" "It is for the new spice rack because the 4 pound curry and turmeric jars I bought while suffering from Costco Syndrome won't fit in my kitchen. If I ever start enjoying the taste of either of those spices it will be great, got them at a phenomenal price!"
