Woman stopped from using hospitalized mom\u2019s Costco card and TikTok is furious TikTok: @briannellingtonA woman revealed that she was stopped by a Costco employee as a result of the store\u2019s strict policies regarding membership cards. The whole fiasco left TikTok in a state of fury. Costco is renowned for its incredible discounts, as well as a wide selection of quirky products that customers can explore. One woman, however, had a less than perfect visit on her most recent trip to the store. She explains that the kerfuffle that occurred when she tried to use her hospitalized mom\u2019s card. \u201cY\u2019all I did not know Costco was that serious. I really didn\u2019t,\u201d she begins. \u201cSo my mom\u2019s in the hospital, right? She gives me the Costco card. I go to the Costco, I get on my s**t and I get to the self-checkout. The lady says can I see your card? I give her the card she flips it around and she sees a picture of my mom.\u201d \u201cShe\u2019s like, is she here with you today?\u201d \u201cI said no, she\u2019s in the hospital. She looks at me, she looks at the stuff in my cart she goes, you can\u2019t buy that.\u201d To which the TikToker comments on the employee\u2019s lack of sympathy, saying that the situation is \u201cmessed up.\u201d She points out that with her mother in hospital, she\u2019s unable to go to the store herself to pick up her groceries, and so depends on her daughter to do so. People furious by employee\u2019s refusal of hospitalized mom\u2019s Costco card After the TikToker posted the video to social media, people were quick to comment, voicing their outrage at the situation. \u201cI think it\u2019s ridiculous that one family can\u2019t use one Costco card. We can\u2019t go with my dad because it has his picture and I\u2019m like we\u2019re literally related.\u201d Another shared a bad experience they\u2019d had at the store, similar to the video\u2019s poster: \u201cThey yelled at me for paying with my card because we used my husband\u2019s Costco card as if we don\u2019t have the same membership and bank account.\u201d One joked that Costco was \u201cThe Netflix of shopping.\u201d Many advised the TikToker to forgo their family\u2019s Costco membership entirely, and head over to Sam\u2019s Club instead: \u201cAnd that\u2019s why I shop at Sam\u2019s Club.\u201d \u201cSam\u2019s Club would never. They\u2019ve never checked my card since I\u2019ve had my account for 5 years now.\u201d Perhaps what\u2019s most amusing is that Sam\u2019s Club themselves commented on the video, urging her: \u201cYikes..sounds like you need a Sam\u2019s Club Membership! Send us a DM.\u201d Another woman was reeling after a visit to their local Walmart, when she was made to check out and bag all of her own items.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
