Saturday at Noon is the best time to come shopping here. Come with an empty belly since they have tons of free samples at this time of day.

Michelle Hermark

It's not on the menu , but hot dogs and polish sausages come with free sauerkraut . (It's not a big deal, just ask for it and they'll give it to you.)

Conrad Hametner

You don't need a membership to purchase wine , beer , liquor or from the pharmacy . It is regulated by Texas law.

Gregory Anderson

Two words LIVING WAGE. LOVE THIS PLACE. THEY PAY ENOUGH TO GET KNOWLEDGEABLE EMPLOYEES.

Dianey Sandoval

Go during the week…. This place gets packed on the weekend….

Chris Rose

Kind of a necessary evil. Get there when it opens if you don't enjoy crowds or lines--it's never not busy.

Jeff Bobula

The only time you can go and not have it be a madhouse is 30 minutes before they close on a Thursday night. But then you're that guy. Or gal.

Kevin V.

Saturday afternoons are the best time to go!

Conrad Hametner

The Costco down South is never as crowded as this one. Shop there if you are in the area. Only downside is they don't sell gas.

Tony Lee

If you actually watch the prices, many of the things are just slightly more expensive than HEB...which makes one question the value of the membership.

I feel like I should get an award each time I go to Costco without pushing down free sample munchers that get in my way.

Paul Michael Bloodgood

Costco has the most affordable quality food court - anywhere.

Billy Joe Cain

Their med prices are fantastic. Saved me thousands.

Cindy Lo

If u need something from the customer service counter, recommend NOT coming an hr before closing or right when they open

KeepR RUnusual

Costco coupons all have the same bar code, any coupon will get you all the discounts on your purchase.

Emily Adams

Churros and hand dipped ice cream bars are the best desserts here. Super cheap too!

indiana adams

They now have gelato at the Costco cafe . For $1.50 and a smile you can get a giant triple scoop cone !

Rose B

How is this place ALWAYS so busy?! Yet so efficient, courteous, and helpful.

Katy Thompson

Don't forget to check for their cheap bread .

Colin

Good luck finding parking on the weekend. This place is a madhouse .

David Grant

You can't beat the hot dogs at Cosco - for flavor and for value!

Justin Ong

The equation for how much you will spend here is roughly $75 + ($25 x 20 minutes)

Bryan Goodson

Free samples

Bug the store manager to be open later than 6pm on Saturday night! They turn away streams of cars! Stupid!

Cash or check only at the food court .

Cash only at the lunch counter

Worst service in town . Very expensive compared to even Walmart or HEB and when you bring it up they get ugly. I cancelled my membership over the way their management acted.

KeepR RUnusual
