The direction of this thread seemed strange at first glance but now it is getting clearer.

Trying to tie this all together, are we to expect that in the future we have to buy 80-pack cases of CPAP masks at Costco?
I'm down for that, probably cost about 1.25 each by the time costco gets done with 'em.

I understand that and was simply pointing out what some may not realize - with a "Guest Pass" they are paying Price +Plus which is more than you can buy things for at a Non-Member store, that's all.

Things aren't always what they seem to be.

You need your card to buy gas.

True.

But if I understand the website correctly a Costco Cash card can also be used at the pumps. However someone with a member card would have to purchase the cash card. I am not willing to go thru that kind of trouble esp. when I can get gas cheaper thru the grocery store.

I found this on Amazon for $13.32 and if you are buying $35 worth of products you get FREE shipping. It will come right to the house (I like this feature) and YOU can avoid the dreaded Hot Dog temptation.
Will have to check for other OTC meds.

Kirkland Signature Non Drowsy Allerclear Loratadine Tablets, Antihistamine, 10mg, 365-Count by Kirkland Signature

$37.64 $13.32 ($0.04/count)
Get it by Tuesday, Sep 9

Thanks for the idea to use Amazon. The next time I will buy my antihistamines from them and I can add to the order Omaha 16 (3 oz.) Gourmet Jumbo Franks for just $21.
