Some deals are still much better than the others, but...if we planned accordingly there would not be be a need to chase deals. I am still a member of this chain because my wife insists...A happy wife means husband does the Costco shopping ;). If you buy more than a pound or 2 of fruit in the same package you should still check it thoroughly as moldy/mushy fruits are pretty common whether you buy mandarin oranges or lemons. Some aftermarket car items and water and beverages like Gatorade or V8 are decently priced. Still no scan guns for self-check outs though. Entering annoying thing is to check in and to scan your card 7 times till it gets recognized. God forbid Costco invaders will enter with the Costco cards belonging to their relatives and accidentally spend extra few hundred dollars at Costco. Would not want this happening, would you? Latest disappointment was when I and kids decided we would like to grab a hotdog. I do not do this often, but I remember grabbing one with a friend few months ago. What's a big deal? Kids had a long day at medical appointments then helped me locating items at Costco, they do deserve some reward, right? Ladies at the counter tried their best to ignore me for quiet a while. They excelled in it better than a bartender or a waiter in Las Vegas who somehow perceives that he/she was not being tipped generously enough for their unceasing efforts if there is still such a thing. When one lady finally acknowledged my presence she only asked if it will be cash or card and referred me to self-serve kiosk. I can also go home and fry my own hotdog it is not a science or as we all decided on our way home better hotdogs and even condiments to go with them are sold at the local Maverik. Not cheaper, but so much better tasting and all we have to do is to pick up hot dog, bun and condiments and let the CLERK process the transaction before sliding the card. Last, but not least there were still no curbside pickup options last time I checked. Fred Meyer has their items much better systematized in their store and yet curbside pick up is offered. Wal-mart in Chubbuck also offers curbside pick up even though it is usually fairly slow ( 6-7 times slower on average compared to Fred Meyer). Yet it is offered and if you are disabled or can't move too fast or are unsure where the desired items are located it still makes sense. Sam's club offers curbside pick up. Costco does not :( . read more

I was recently laid off and was forced to downgrade my 20 year executive membership to gold. I was denied entry at 9:27am this morning because I was not an executive member. I had a very small window of time today to get my hearing aids serviced. Now I will have to wait a few days. This might sound petty to some, but I'm really pissed off that they would deny me entry 1/2 hour early because I no-longer have their executive membership due to being laid off. read more

This Costco is very cool. They got stuff that they don't have where I live. We didn't get much service but I'm hoping it is great. There was tons options to choose from all sorts of candy to even clothes! The value of all the things here is crazy. I would highly recommend this Costco if you have not been. read more

The worst Costco I have ever been in. Checker was rude and even though I am 75 years young, refused to sell me wine without an ID stating it was Idaho law. I wend down the road and bought wine at WinCo and Fred Meyer without any ID and without the rude hassle. I wish now I hadn't shopped there at all which included $113.00 gas. Loads of people clogging the lanes while feeding lunch to their families. Way too many samplers and few filled carts. Not for me and I spend a lot of money in Costco. Tires, car, furniture, plants/shrubs and lots of food. I won't shop your stinking Pocatello location again. I'm sure your wine sales will drop...since corporate is so proud of those sales. Also the worst thing was that as I was leaving the parking lot to continue down Yellowstone, the little dormant and stiff trees scraped holes all along my motorhomes awning and damaged it so badly I will have to replace it. The road was very narrow and with traffic, it was impossible to avoid them, had I even noticed them. I shop Costco in several states and cities but I will never go back to this one. Got my return gas and groceries somewhere else this time. read more

I love Costco. Sure, they don't carry everything, but the quality of what the have is great. Also, they will allow returns without question. So glad they moved into Idaho Falls! read more

Costco is a really good store. All the sales people are nice It has a wide array goods and it's good competition for the other stores in the area read more

Overall a quality Costco experience aside from some snarky comments to my wife and I from a dinosaur named Connie. Great hotdogs.

With hopes of securing better deals on wine in Idaho rather than pay all the extra tax in Utah, we detoured into the Pocatello Costco while on a road trip. Although the wine selection is smaller than many of the other Costco locations we've shopped in the surrounding area, it's certainly met our needs. There are a few practical choices that we keep in our cellar. The most popular for us is the 2013 Coppola Cabernet. We picked up a case of the Coppola and then sampled a few other bottles to see if we like them for a future purchase at Costco. Imagine being in Idaho and having a large selection of fresh seafood. This location excels in their seafood offerings. If I wasn't traveling that day, I would've picked up the scallops. The large sea scallops looked delicious. As an advocate for good wine at fair prices and a nice selection of seafood, give this Costco a try. Salute! read more

I'm sorry I am a Costco addict! I'm sure many of the employees know my husband as the crazy Vikings waffle guy! The employees have always gone above and beyond for us! Including searching all over the store for waffles the computer said they had! Yep we will be lifetime members! read more

Shout out to Drew (The Blind Guy)! Drew offered excellent customer service. He was informative at his kiosk in Costco, Poccatello. He came to our home for a consultation and quote. We called him back ONE YEAR after, when we had finally decided to do it. Drew graciously came back to give us a new quote on our final decisions. He came back to install, Drew is gracious and knowledgeable. When we did have follow up concerns he returned and made everything right. Excellent Customer Service. Excellent Representative of Costco services. read more

This Costco has one thing no Costco has in Utah. Wine! Yes, that evil drink of the devil. The selection is appropriate for Pocatello, meaning not some of the higher end wines in California. However, the price is pretty darn good. So, when I find myself going through here, I pick up a couple cases to drink at home. When you are in the line, either the cashier, or the person next to you in line says the obvious. Utah? Yup. Obviously I'm not the only one doing this. Other than that, it's got all the pluses of the Costco's local to me. read more

Driving in from the small driveway is a little hectic, but it's worth it to enter the world of COSTCO. Of course, all Costcos have a similar layout with the double pull down doors and carts off to the side, but I think it's nice that here in this snowy area that they have a spacious, enclosed foyer to shake the chill and snow off before entering the store :) maybe it's just that I'm a California girl, but I appreciate any attempts at keeping me warm! Service here is standard. Funny story though--I noticed that I was one of the only Asian patrons in the area (literally, the entire shopping center). So I was really surprised when I saw that this Costco sold authentic Korean brand dumplings!!!! Bibigo for the win ;) they even had roasted seaweed which is a must for my stress snacking. When I checked out, coincidentally there was a Korean checkstand helper as well. I thought it was pretty amusing that HE TOO freaked out that I was buying Asian dumplings too. In any case, I am really relieved that my temporary home Costco carries the things I love most. Definitely makes being away from home a little easier!!! read more

I'm just here for the booze. While it is probably the smallest Costco I have ever been to they do have the basics. And by basics I mean beer and wine. I picked up 4 bottles of various wines and all were around $10. They also have a medium size selection of beer. Price is not bad but not the cheapest in town. I did pick up a kirkland brand case of micro beer to try. read more

I love shopping at Costco. I especially love shopping at Costco outside the state where I live. They always provide a consistent shopping experience no matter where I travel to. I can always count on getting exactly what I want at every single Costco I'm shopping at. read more

I have been waiting for over 3 weeks to receive my delivery from Costco. I specifically asked them to mail to a specif address and they did not. I have been trying to get a hold of the optical department all day just to find out where my package is. There is no voicemail set up and no one is answering the phone. SO unprofessional and frustrating. I will not be ordering from Costco again. read more

HEARING AID DEPARTMENT Review: My mother and I were referred to Dr. Myers by a close friend. Glad we went to see her. We were hesitant to go due to other experiences we had with audiologist around town worrying about their bottom dollar and not the patient. Dr. Myers is a very friendly and knowledgeable audiologist. She explained everything to my mother and I, and answered all our difficult questions we had. No pressure was felt by the doctor to buy, only to be helpful. I notice when our appointment was over, her next patient drove from Utah to see her. Which I'm sure they passed several Costco's on there way to Pocatello. My mother walked out with a new pair of hearing aids that worked and a huge smile on her face. If Dr. Myers leaves Costco, we will be happily to follow her. read more

My last day here and just before getting dropped off to the airport we had to make a stop for the churros. I kept jocking the churros all week long, so it was about time we made the stop. It's the usual Costco that you know and love but the eatery where they make their pizzas, hot dogs, and churros, is located in the inside of the building itself. I've never seen that sort of layout, because out here in L.A. every Costco that I have ever been to has their eateries outside. In any event, the churros were legit and they're only $1 here, as opposed to the $1.35 - $1.50 in L.A. No complaints with Costco's churros ever! read more

Costco - Can't go wrong with pepperoni! - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Pocatello, Idaho

Rude, rude, RUDE!! This Costco is subpar at best. The staff are always rude and condescending. This is the most ridiculous location I've ever shopped at, and I've been to Costco locations in probably a dozen states including locations on two of the Hawaiian islands! I will never shop here again! read more

Costco in Pocatello Idaho is one of the better cost goes I've been to its clean the staff is friendly and all in all it's just a good experience. Their food court is awesome we buy pizza there all the time and my kids love their dogs and the chicken bakes churros frozen ice cream's and smoothies or slushy's the prices are phenomenal and the staff at the food court treat you very well. My favorite thing to get there is a pizza with pepperoni and sausage and no sauce it's like eating a giant meaty cheesy breadstick! read more

I hate to like something I dread as a pro locally owned business advocate, but I can't complain, they treat their employees well and give fair wages. I can't really say anything bad about it. I'm only giving it 4 stars because I dislike to buy food and other things from a giant wear house. Also, FYI the food court purposely loses money to get you to buy things. You can eat there without a membership read more

You can't go wrong with Costco. Great deals, great produce. Wish they would build one in Idaho Falls, we need one.

I ordered a set of Bridgestone Blizzak DM-V2 tires online for my wife's suv from Costco because I wanted to try that model and my usual tire dealers didn't handle them. I had never been in a Costco, but have friends who are members and have suggested I join, though none had bought tires there. This seemed a good time to join and give it a try. On the day they arrived at the Pocatello, ID store, we drove to the store from our home 2 1/2 hours away to have them installed, arriving at the store at about 12:30 pm. They were busy, and we were told by the sharp young lady at the counter that we would have around a 3 hour wait. It took nearly 6. The installers finally drove our car out of the work bay at about 6:15, but the installer had failed to put our tires in the back of the car, so we had to wait an additional 10 minutes for the tires to be put in bags, then in the car. Followed by the long drive home. Bad day. I restore vehicles for a living and have many sets of tires installed each year, so I'm familiar with tire stores and procedures. Periodically watching the installation activity through the window, I was astonished that there were not only too few installers, but the ones there were working extremely inefficiently. On top of which, after the young lady left at 3, one of the installers would have to stop what he was doing to come to the counter and answer the phone or talk with customers. I can't blame the installers, they weren't sitting around, but Costco tire management, if there is such a thing, is simply incompetent. At what level, I don't know; probably all the way to the top. It was as if someone were given the nice facility then didn't know quite how to run it. I do know that while we were waiting, numerous people came in, waited a while for someone to give them attention and when it didn't happen, left. I thought of a ship without a rudder. My recommendation? Buy your tires from a local, real, tire store. The savings I found at Costco were negligible and certainly not worth my time. read more

Thank you Costco for your calm friendly staff. With everyone stocking up because of the COVID-19 it was really busy at Costco this morning. The checkout lines went faster than expected though. Thank you for your great employees who did everything they could to make a bad situation bearable. read more

Joined the Price Club in 1983 ... have shopped in many units in Southern California and Central Texas before moving to Pocatello, idaho. Without a doubt the lowest volume Costco I have been in. Great for a quick check out. Love the Pocatello Costco. read more

Did my Christmas cards at a Kiosk here... machines were slow and I had to switch to a new machine all together to finally get the order to go through. I prepaid for the photos and went on my way. I was told I would receive an email in 5-10 days letting me know my order was complete. 10 Days go by, no email and no phone call. So I decided to go in myself. I walk up to the photo desk and am asked, "What do you need?" I told them I was picking up my Christmas photos. He pointed to a tiny unorganized shelf on the side of the photo desk. I went over there and before I could say anything a very rude associate that is scrambling through all the orders barks at me, "What do you need?" I told her I was here to pick up my Christmas cards and she immediately responds sharply, "What size???" I repeated myself, "They're christmas cards." She said, "Were they shipped?" I told her that I had to wait 10 Days for them so they probably were. She found my order and said, "Looks like you haven't paid for them yet!" I told her that's funny because I had prepaid and had the receipt. She said no you haven't paid at all. But I'll go look to see if you have. She came back 5 minutes later and said, "You didn't tell me that you did them at a Kiosk and not online!" I felt like she was making her problem mine, that it was my fault. I kind of gave her a "I told you so" look and went on my way. Never doing my photos at Costco again. Overpriced and waited a long time for them with bad service. Walmart is much cheaper and you get the same day and more bang for your buck! Sorry Costco, you lost this customer. read more

The only Costco in the nation I would run into just for milk eggs and bread. Hard not to fill the cart with all the other great deals, but no matter what's on your list, Costco has the best quality for the price. I'm here at least a couple times a week. Thanks for giving Poky some great options! read more

Produce department. Have shopped 3 times at this store and all 3 times a large majority of the produce was already out of date or 1-2 days left before the items were not to be sold. A pallet of cherry tomatoes were wrinkled up most were out of date up to 3 weeks. 1/2 clam shells of salad out of date or 2 days left until the package said "do not eat after this date." Check the dates we do not need to shop where they don't care about there produce. Could also use more checkers. read more

Stopped here for "supplies" heading back to Utah. One of the nicer and cleaner Costco's I have been in (probably been to a dozen fwiw). Good selection of produce, meat and wine. Best part was I went on a Saturday afternoon and it wasn't a freakin zoo like most of them are on Saturday's. read more

Love Costco,but wish sometimes they did sell in some smaller packages since there is just the two of us. Nevertheless ... love it! Thanks for bringing on more organic and gluten free products. You have my support! And to Gerard about eatery being inside, out in Idaho we have something called winter Ha! We would be serving frozen hotdogs and churros if we kept it outside, hence inside eatery. Come and visit us during the winter and enjoy our great outdoor activities. read more

I love Costco in general! The quality of the products, the samples, The bulk goods etc. my problem with the Cosco here in Pocatello is the staff is not as friendly as the Cosco's in other places. read more

We've been on this Costco location twice before and everything else is fine with us EXCEPT the gas station. Although it is slightly cheaper than the cost of gas per gallon outside costco, the thing that gets me is the OCTANE number they sell. They only sell 85 and 91... Who uses 85 octane?!!! With the newer cars 96 and later prefer ATLEAST 87 octane to prevent our cars from pinging and knocking thus preventing it from throwing a CEL (check engine light) SES (svc engine soon) or SEL (svc engine light) At first, I perceived it as a way for them to make me spend more money on gas that is UNNECESSARY for my vehicle. My van calls for 87 Octane and as long as I use 87 Octane my vehicle is fine with it. And NO, my van will not benefit to my advantage from using 91 Octane (The Master Auto Tech Confirmed it) Anyway, if you must stop at this costco location and needed gas all you have to do is guess how much you need and put half 91 and Half 85. I've done it twice before and our 2015 Toyota Sienna and 2008 Nissan Quest had no issues with pinging or knocking at all. Other than that, we love this costco location and Pocatello, and we will stop by this city again if we have to go through this state!!! read more

Long lines, poor cashiers, subpar management: If you buy in bulk and don't mind the rotten service, then this place is for you.

It's a smaller Costco than what I'm used to but the people are way friendly and because it's in a smaller town it's never really too busy to go shopping, except for maybe Saturday's. As always the cheap but yummy food court gets us every time! read more
