Where else can you get a huge Hot Dog and unlimited soda refills for $1.50??? while walking out with your new 80" LED TV. Costco Rules! read more

My fiancé and I come all the time! They sometimes have good deals, you just have to look for them. We get the rotisserie chicken at least once a week. We also routinely buy chicken breasts and chicken nuggets. The greeters are always friendly, but the checkout lines are always long. They gas is usually a decent price in comparison to other places in the area. read more

Having been to Costco a lot, this location upholds it's cleanliness and organization. There's enough room to browse through the aisles and find things you questionably need. One of my favorite things are getting an açaí bowl for only $5 or an açaí swirl for $3. They changed the recipe recently but it's still really good read more

If you've been to Costco the 5 stars are self explanatory! The employees are nice and the store is always clean. They have excellent customer service especially when you have a return. read more

I have been a big fan of Costco since I lived in Indiana and they gave out free memberships to college students (it was promo when the opened). This Costco in Brandon now offers gas. You've got two options...87 octane & 93 octane for those folks with the German cars like myself. The gas is super high quality and the price is better than anywhere else. Plus...I kid you not, this is the cleanest gas station/pump you've ever seen. I has to do with a guy always being there cleaning up and making sure everyone is being smart and not smoking while leaving their car on and pumping gas...you get the idea. Once you've inside the store...wow...it's a great one as far as Costco stores go. I've been to Costco's all over the US & Canada and this one is one of the best I've seen. The items inside the store are high quality and of course you can return something if it doesn't perform as expected for you. Shoot...I returned some luggage that broke down on me I bought in Vancouver, BC and the took it no questions asked. Ok, I'll be a snob and say the clientele here at Costco is *ahem* different than you'll find at Sam's Club. Is that a reason to shop here? No...probably not. But I didn't see a screaming kid fest like you'd normally see in Sam's. Keep in mind...you can only use DEBIT & AMERICAN EXPRESS here. If you have a membership...you already know this, but I thought I'd mention it. read more

Another company that chose to get political and refuse a donation from the NRA a hefty donation for a children's charity because they decided they have enough donations and didn't want to associate with the NRA, so since they must be rolling in $$ they no longer need mine. Goodbye! read more

Great wholesale "buy in bulk" store. Way better than SAMS-anything that isn't affiliated with Walmart is much better. Meats are tender, customer service is good, variety of items sold... read more

Absolutely love Costco that have everything I need for the right price. Don't think this is Sam's club because it isn't....Sam's club sucks compared to this place.. Anything you need check Costco first. We get our groceries, car insurance, car buying, travel, furniture, and everything else from Costco. read more

not everything in Costco offers the best value for your dollar. don't be delusional people! if you do enough research you will see. Then why do I shop here and gave 4 stars? well : I do like organic section, household items they sell ... best brands and quality. I do fill out my car with gas at this location as well. And here is what many people don't know is that if you go to gold or platinum membership you get money back for every purchase at Costco and at the end of the year you get a check. it pays itself off for my family! almost like free membership ! read more

My husband dropped some cash, literally, on the floor, the other night at Costco. He didn't realize it. It was a goodly amount of cash. They called us after poring over security camera footage to make sure it was him that dropped it, and he went in right away and claimed it. This was so good of Costco and the kind person who picked up the money from the floor where it had been dropped in the checkout line. We just felt extra loved and cared for by Costco and humanity that night. Thanks for going the extra mile for your customers. read more

I love Costco and prefer it over Sam's and BJ's. This review is only about the Tire Department in the Brandon, FL location. The customer service sucks - waited forever for someone to assist me but it is only one person trying to run out to the shop for info and answer constantly ringing phones - I was the only one there for about 10 minutes and had to wait over 20 minutes for assistance. Once I got waited on the person was very professional. I actually blame the department manager for poor scheduling of that department. read more

This feedback is given to the Costco Tire shop only, and after Victoria Karr sales auditor sent me a letter asking for my experience. This was my reply: ****************** Dear Victoria Karr, Approximately a month ago I started shopping for new tires for my car. Specific to buy only the front tires (245/40ZR/18) since the ones in the back still had a lot of mileage on them left. I have purchase tires from Costco before for my other cars so this was my first option. Note that the car is a 2017 Chevy Stingray which has staggered tires front and back and with Michelin Super Sports run-flats at the moment. On 4/5/2021 I called Brandon tire shop to ensure the tires I was looking in the Costco website were the correct ones, to which the associate confirmed and even recommend another model (Michelin Pilot Sport AS4 XL) which seems to be better from the ones I was looking over the website. 4/8/2021 I made an internet order () for the two tires to be delivered to the Brandon shop. Only attestations that was needed to buy the tires is and quote "To ensure the correct tires for your vehicle are successfully delivered and installed, confirm your vehicle's tire size and load index. This information is listed on the Vehicle Information Placard. The placard is are permanently attached to the vehicle door edge, door post, glove-box door, or inside of the trunk lid. For your safety, Costco Tire Center technicians will only install tires with a load index equal to or greater to the information listed on placard." NO other warning or comments during the conversation on 4/5 and when completing the order. 4/13/2021 received a confirmation (5days after the order) that the tires arrived to the shop, and that I needed to make an appointment for installation. Which I did with an appointment for 4/20/2021 (7 days) at 10:00am at the Brandon Tire shop. 4/20/2021 I went to the tire shop to get the tires installed. Check-in with Daniel and left the car for them to call me when ready. 10 minutes later Daniel is calling me that they can't install the tire since they are different from the ones in the rear; for which I replied that it is obvious since they are different size tires from factory; but that I'll return to the shop to discuss further in person. Went back to the shop 10-15 mins later and Daniel again tried to explain that it can't be done unless I buy another set of tires for the back, or run-flats type for the front, which I stated is not what I wanted and that there is absolutely no issues for having that set-up in the car, and no one no were it advise me against it. He completely refuse to install alleging that they can't not do it since it is a "different tire compound". I explain to him this is not an issue and that I verified before making the order, and that even my other cars (I mentioned my Highlander) which he can look up in the system had different tires front and back and installed before in Costco. At the end, after waiting 12 days between the order and installation appointment, I left the shop very disappointed without the tires installed and money refunded. Later on that day, I contacted Michelin Tech support and asked if there is anything against this set-up with non run-flats type in the front and run-flats type in the back, and they confirmed that there is no issue with that type of installation. Likewise I contacted the GM dealership with the same question and also confirmed that there is no constraint to do the set-up. Same day went to a Local tire shop which is Michelin Certified, and was able to buy and install the tires as I wanted in 2 days, for less price than Costco. In summary: The service and how the technician handled this situations was very poor and disappointing. This is not what is expected from Costco, were I'm a big sponsor/client of the brand. Ask for the appropriate executive to take action for this to not happen again, and to train the technician accordingly, both in service and technical knowledge. Will not buy any other tire in the future from Costco, so Costco tire is losing our business. Will not sponsor and provide the feedback of my situation, so no other customer endure such a bad experience. Hope this gives you an good sense of the facts, and let you know to take actions to have better service or not provide the service at all to the customers. Best regards, Miguel Lebron ******************** Now to makes the experience WORST, I received a call from the same guy who refused to do the service stating that what he was trying to say is that it is not " recommended" which is not the conversation we had. The service here is a joke, just wanting to up sale things not required or needed. Still waiting for someone to tell me were to send a formal corporate complaint. read more

Came here to reach out to costco's marketing department for ad space which in fact is a tax deduction for me which i found awesome. Found the store to be very clean and orderly. I do not necessarily buy in bulk but if you crave something, this is the place to be. One interesting note is the Snack bar... where i found all the senior citizens from 33511/33578 eating very affordable pizza/hotdogs and ice cream. read more

By far and away the best wholesale club of them all. I've been to a few different Costco warehouses and a few of their competitors stores and it's an easy decision on who is best. They always have the friendliest staff at the front door and throughout the store. The store is also super clean. The clothes section which is the most likely to get messed up is always in perfect order. My favorite part is the multitude of samples they always offer on a given day. The gas prices are pretty decent. All over recently gas has dropped so it's not as good of a deal as it usually it is. But it's still a good price. I've only had the food there once but it was really good when I had it. The food court is always full so it must be good! I really love shopping there. For the most part I got to costco before I go to the grocery store. I really enjoy shopping here. read more

Our local neighborhood Costco, can get a little crazy but my bf picked our townhouse because if it's proximity to their front door. We may have Publix just up the street but I go to Costco for most of our grocery needs. I use Costco's pharmacy too, which can be a little slow and they're only open until 7 PM during the week and not open on Sundays. The savings here are worth the membership fee and my boyfriend and I make up our membership fee by paying for the executive membership and receiving cash back. However, you do not earn cash back on gasoline which kinda stinks for us since we only get gas at Costco. This location is great, plenty of parking and very nice employees. Next up, I'm planning to buy tires after doing a lot of research on their quality. read more

The best run wholesale club in town. No comparison to the Sam's Club in Riverview. It is often crowded on weekends but plan accordingly. For the deals the waits are worth it. Selection is good, service is excellent. Return policies are fair. The hot dog/ drink deal is still the best. Other snack bar items are also good if you want food in a hurry. read more

This Costco always has the best items for sale and makes sure that everyone is well taken care of. Make sure to renew your membership. I always enjoy coming here. read more

Nice costco, but unlike the West Coast, not a lot of samples. Cheap gas is always nice, and they have that!

Great prices... Nice clean store and variety of things... Nice people...

Costco is always a good stop twice a month for us. They are located kinda of out of site but if you follow the directions you should drive right up. The stock is always kept up and on Saturdays they always have the samples out and running. They samples have help us find things we like and purchase every visit. The produce at this location last allot longer then some Costcos we have visited. The lines are not bad and parking is always easy to find. read more

LOVE how they keep distancing and lines running smoothly as you get ready to check out ...Fully stocked and many specials which helps your budget. Thanks for the great fresh fruit and veggies in a supper cooled room. read more

I love Costco! We've been members here for four years. I love that they always have different samples to try-- I always end up trying them and buying them! Their meats are a fantastic quality for a reasonable price. The clothes are a steal! Name brands at great prices. Lucky jeans, champion workout clothes, billabong shorts, dockers, Gloria Vanderbilt! If you want to buy in bulk or just shop for unique items come here! It's always busy on the weekends but the lines move fast. Gas prices are the best in town. Liquor store has the cheapest prices I've ever seen but the selection is limited. We will continue to be members here. read more

First of all we have used optical department for many years. They are fantastic and probably are the main reason we remain a customer as I do not need bulk items like I did years ago. The only hiccup is there tire department and it is not a reflection on the employees. I waited three and one half hours to get a flat fixed on a off day for them. The employee was very nice but he said they do not have enough employees and Costco has been unable to fill the positions. One of the good things about the Tire Warranty is that they can fix the tire for free but actually it would be better at a local tire shop. Next time I buy tires if the tire shop price is close I will go there. read more

I have register card from here with my old co worker. After i left that job and her take me out from account. When I come back shopping in Costco they are take my card away when i check out and don't say anything for me. And they don't get me check out when i have a full car stub. They don't seen me any letter for take me away from my acc. And another time when i come shopping in here. When i check out with 2 difference payment. The lady check out for me she be mad with that. They have a very good food and good price but customer service is very bad read more

Love getting their sliced mangoes and shrimp cocktail here. Friendly people. Great prices. There's an area to get food if you get hungry while shopping. read more

If Trader Joes' my pride, Costco would be my joy. Living in SoCal for most of my life, I grew up on Costco. Everything from the giant cheese pizzas to walking around asking for samples after samples to buying too much paper towel for one family to even their $1.50 hot dogs was a staple in my upbringing. Of course, this Costco follows suit and doesn't disappoint. For all you Costco noobies, here are my 10 commandments to Costco shopping: 1. Limit how much you want to spend before you go in. You can easily rack up a $200 without even noticing. 2. When you walk in, go to the Customer Service counter to grab a coupon book. 3. Come with a half empty stomach. You probably won't get full off a Costco sample meal, but you'll regret it if you come stuffed. 4. Go down every aisle and get oriented with where things are! Some things are randomly placed so you don't want to miss anything. Plus, sometimes you find things you didn't know you needed. 5. Check the fruits carefully. Sometimes the fruits can have a variety of overly ripe and completely under ripe ones mixed in so pay attention! 6. Come for the holidays! They have MAJOR deals on holiday decorations and holiday gifts. They even have holiday only sales! This is the same for seasonal items as well (hiking gear for summer, winter coats for winter, etc.) 7. Don't ever go in the check out lanes on the side. Find yourself a good middle spot because they tend to overcrowd on the sides. 8. Ask for a box at check out! At this Costco, for some reason, you have to request for a box for your items. This will save you major time lugging everything you bought back to your fridge and home. 9. Fill your gas here! Gas is ALWAYS $0.10-$0.15 cents cheaper at Costco. You can even get new tires, car washes, and the whole shebang here. 10. If you want to return anything, they have a VERY lax return policy. I've literally seen someone return a half eaten cake. I literally sound like a Costco addict, but that's not too far from the truth. You're welcome Costco. tl;dr - Friendly people, low prices, and all-around amazingness. If you're still with Sam's Club, you might want to rethink some of those life choices and pick up a Costco membership. read more

Clean, spacious, convenient location, and good selection that obviously varies from location to location throughout the nation. Has some of the friendliest employees. Probably one of the best Costco locations I've been to. Depending on the cashier, they'll even scan a coupon for you on a sale item if you forget to bring it. read more

Recently moved to the brandon area from wesley chapel and it's crazy to me how much this store sucks compared to the one in wesley. Now I know to just make the 45 minute drive if I really have to shop at Costco because this one isn't worth taking two steps in. Absolutely terrible. read more

Unacceptable Customer Service. I wrote the following review: "Never receive any paperwork or e-mail I purchased a camera in April 2018. At check out I received the instructions to wait for the information via e-mail or mail. Nothing came in the mail. I only received the receipt from Costco in the e-mail. As of May 28, 2018, more than 30 days from the date of my purchase, I did not receive anything for my 2 Years of Drops and Spills Protection Camera. I would like the customer service to mail me the proof with the registration instructions." The Costco customer service wrote the following: "Your opinion is very important to us and the Costco Wholesale community.

I am not a member yet, I am a sams member but checked out this store tonight, the products are more original, it's a huge store very nice, and reminds me of the old bulk stores that made them all famous. Great job. read more

Costco is where it's at! Literally I hate grocery shopping so I come to Costco once or twice a month and get everything I need. Veggies and such we get at a local market so it doesn't go bad but everything else we need is at Costco and gas is always cheaper! I like trying new things and Costco seems to do a really good job at having a variety of good products for a better price. Also, the wine is totally worth it. We always get wine when we come and it's usually at least 5dollars less than anywhere else read more

Costco is to SAMs what Target is to Walmart. Well before Target started to let guys pee in the ladies room. With two growing kids, we shop here a lot. I love the ever changing selection they have and their return policy is outstanding. Be sure and try the rotisserie chicken and don't forget sample days on most weekends. read more

Hey, it's Costco; they have everything you need and you know what you are getting. No frills, no gimmicks, and everything is transparent. Food court is a good spot to fill hungry bellies at a fraction of eating out at a restaurant. read more

Everything thing I said before still applies, but I wanted to update my review. We continue to shop here 2 times a week at least. One of the best things is the Gas Station! The quality is great and the prices meet or beat everyone in the area. It is sometimes difficult to get there which is a downside. The selection of meats, seafood and vegetables keeps us stocked. I occasionally go to a local Publix to pick up the other things I may need, but normally Costco takes care of us. I still highly recommend this company to everyone. read more

I like eating clean and Costco has a variety of organic options at affordable prices. I'm here at least once a week. Weekends are awesome because of all the samples. There's always something to try around every corner and many are new organic products. Everything is always fresh and delicious. read more
