Take you to visit Costco, a large warehouse-style supermarket in southwestern Sydney
When I was in China, I visited the American-run Costco in Huacao Town, Shanghai. It was extremely popular when it first opened, with huge crowds. Today, I'll take you to see what Costco, a large warehouse-style supermarket in southwestern Sydney, is like.
This is my second visit to Costco Sydney. When I came at the end of last year, I still had to scan a QR code to show my health code, but now it is fully open. You only need to show your membership card to enter. There are not many people in the store, and about half are not wearing masks.
At the entrance, free hand sanitizer is provided.
Costco is an American membership-based chain of warehouse stores, known for offering good quality and affordable prices. Therefore, many families choose to shop at this famous supermarket for daily necessities and groceries.
Staff check membership cards at the entrance.
Costco stores are very large, with items arranged by category.
At Costco, you need to be a member to shop. The annual membership fee can be recouped when purchasing certain essentials.
Since it operates on a membership model, when you have a Costco membership card, you can enjoy cheaper gasoline exclusively for Costco members. Fill up at the Costco gas station.
When shopping at Costco, you need to be aware that Costco focuses on bulk sales. Items that are large and heavy are sold at more reasonable prices. For example, napkins, bottled water, etc.
You can buy these items in very large quantities. Keep this in mind when you are shopping in the store.
Many people choose Costco as one of their supermarkets because its prices are quite cheap compared to other supermarkets. For example, many people buy meat, lemon-flavored drinks, beer, and large quantities of hygiene products there.
