Gas is often cheaper here than Gemini. BUT if you use the app to search if something is in this store, THAT HAS NOT BEEN ACCURATE FOR 3 VISITS. Today it was the delicious broccoli crunch salad. Yesterday it was low stock. Today, it was in stock but a little after 10am, when we arrived, there was nothing. Prices are not the same between the 2 stores on non clearance items. The delicious apple berry pie was $4 cheaper at Gemini. Last week, watermelon was $1 cheaper here. I know clearance prices can differ between the two stores but I expect everything else, within this radius, to be priced the same. I would like more accuracy and consistency. And I don't understand why the appleberry' pie was $4 off everywhere but here. Same thing in Pittsburgh where there were 2 different prices????!!!! Still Costco in general offers quality products at affordable prices. read more

Compared to other reviews I had a much better experience. I needed the tires in my car rotated and balanced, and wanted to swap for nitrogen upgrade. I did not buy my tires from Costco but from the dealership. I went online and made an appointment. Went in was a little early, they were cool with that. An hour later it was all done. Their service was excellent waiting. I only paid $40.00. You won't get a better deal than this anywhere. Only draw back is there is no waiting room. I wouldn't suggest coming in on a Saturday. It was a madhouse in the evening. read more

I love Costco and we come here all the time. Today I had a particularly disappointing experience, we were in line waiting on our food at 10:48 am. The food sample booth people started to come out and we didn't see them. The First Lady with a sample cart yelled at us to move out of her way and was extremely rude. It was very embarrassing and also another customer looked at us wondering why she approached my husband, baby daughter and I in that way. Very unprofessional. read more

Great store, nice selection! Some organic produce, it seems like what is in stock may rotate.

Absolutely worse phone service from the tire department. If I hadn't already purchase the tires (which I'm waiting for an update which I'm calling for a status update) I would for sure take my business ELSEWHERE. I am a new member and will NOT be renewing. read more

This was one of the worst retail experiences I have had, and it has permanently changed how I view Costco specifically the Easton location. At 9:55 a.m., my family and I attempted to enter the store. We were turned away and told to stand outside in freezing temperatures because non-Executive members cannot enter until 10:00. We were five minutes early. We had a baby with us. The employee at the door was rude, cold, and completely unwelcoming. No empathy. No flexibility. No basic human decency. Being told to stand outside in the cold with an infant is not "policy enforcement" it's poor judgment and terrible customer service. The experience only deteriorated from there. At checkout, I was shopping with my mother. I was paying for her groceries. The cashier, Kim N, refused to allow me to pay for her items. This was handled with zero tact and resulted in an incredibly embarrassing situation for my mom during Christmas, no less. There was no attempt to handle this privately, respectfully, or reasonably. Just rigid, robotic enforcement with no regard for the people standing in front of her. After getting home, I contacted Costco administration and spoke with the Guest Experience Manager, Anthony M. This conversation confirmed that Costco simply does not care. Anthony was unapologetic, showed no sympathy, and explicitly stated that Costco has "100,000 members," making it abundantly clear that a single member does not matter. That statement perfectly summarizes the problem: there is a massive disconnect between Costco's brand and how members are actually treated. Between the freezing cold dismissal at the door, the humiliating checkout experience, and the completely indifferent response from management, it is clear that this location--and frankly Costco as a whole has lost sight of what customer service is supposed to be. My mother will be canceling her membership. I will never spend another dollar at Costco again. There are better options in this area that treat customers with dignity and respect. I highly recommend BJ's to anyone considering where to shop at least there, you are treated like a human being, not an inconvenience. Costco Easton should be embarrassed. This is not how loyal, paying members should ever be treated. read more

AWFUL CUSTOMER SERVICE IVE EVER EXPERIENCED IN MY LIFE. I'm stuck 30 minutes away from home with a flat tire and my car on E. They left me with a flat tire, laughed in my face that they can't do anything for me without a membership. Understandable, WHY CAN I NOT GET GAS WITHOUT A MEMBERSHIP?? And no one could inform me of that? read more

Busy on Christmas Eve but very efficient. Self check was moving quickly and they had associates helping with their handheld scanner. read more

I never have anything negative to say about any Costco. For the most part, they are all the same-- busy, busy, busy. They have excellent return policy. They have delicious, reasonably priced Kirkland prosecco and other wines. Always excellent customer service. The only thing I do not like is the rotisserie chicken---rarely completely done inside---some are not even browned on the skin. read more

This was my first time going to Costco. I usually shop at Sam's and of course conceptually they are the same. However I noticed the prices are higher here but the checkout lines moved faster than at Sam's. They do have a lot of healthier options snacks and produce. The staff seemed happy and they were helpful. U would def recommend this place for organic produce the price is good for the quantity. Im not completely sold on leaving Sam's but I have to go back a few more times to decide read more

I felt very safe and secure shopping at Costco, especially at Christmas time. The prices were outstanding in quality and variety and on in demand items, like TVs, electronics, furniture, decorative accessories, appliances, kitchen products, and even shoes and clothing (although not as complete as a department store). The grocery produce was very fresh, the rotisserie chicken was huge, juicy, and a great bargain at $4.99 for a large chicken, and the bakery was exceptional in its variety and deliciousness. Most definitely shop their refrigerated and frozen food sections. Plus, you could buy a monstrously large pumpkin pie for $4.99 and the cheese danish was the best that I have ever eaten! You can't beat the prices on gasoline at the pump too. Check out was splendid: they unload and pack your purchases carefully, and the checkout employees were courteous, swift, and professional. The restaurant food had good prices, a nice variety for everybody, and the prices were really good, especially on the enormous all beef hot dog and fountain drink ($1.49!) and large pizza ($9.99). We always save a ton of money going to Costco. I didn't even touch on the optical, travel, auto department (tires), home remodeling-type services, and vitamins or bulk packaged items. Plus, during the pandemic ordering and delivery was worry-free and life saving for our family. You can save much more than you spend on your membership price on your very first visit alone. Thank you Costco - overall I give shopping you five stars, and we are so happy we joined your membership. read more

*Review for Optical Department* After struggling to find glasses that were cheap and petite enough for my face, I went to Costco. I had heard a lot of good things about their glasses, but I honestly expected lower quality products. I couldn't have been more wrong! If you're just looking for frames, all you need is a current prescription and they'll get you taken care of! You can also schedule an appointment to get an eye exam. From the moment I started looking at frames, someone was helping me and answering any questions. I found a frame in the junior section, took it to the desk, and was sat down to start filling out the forms. The woman who helped me was wonderful. So nice! She told me about their deal in which you get $40 off a second pair of frames when you buy the first pair. So, I decided to buy an additional set and make those prescription sunglasses! My insurance was being a little confusing, but the employee was ridiculously kind and patient. Her shift ended in the middle of my purchase, so another employee finished the process. He was also super kind! I can't say enough good things about their mannerisms. The regular glasses frames cost $49.99 and the sunglasses frames cost $129.99. After insurance, the total for both pairs was $150. I'm very happy with that price, especially considering my old glasses cost $225 alone!! It took less than a week for both glasses to be ready. I had them bend the arms back a little bit and then I was on my way! I can't believe I haven't gone to Costco sooner. I would have saved so much money. They also provide contacts. Definitely give Costco a chance when shopping for eyewear! read more

The store is clean. Have everything we need and the people who work there are nice and helpful.

What can you say about Costco? You go in for one or two items and you come out with 8 to 10 items or more. Unless of course you're my husband and you go in for one or two items and come out with maybe three or four. The only problem we have with our Costco is that it's too crowded. They need another one. The staff is always great. I'm not a sampler, but even I will sample one or two items at times and has been good because then I do try new things. The parking does leave a bit to be desired, but then where it doesn't. The gas still seems to be the best in town and the price is still seem to be mostly the best too so for value, I think overall you can't beat it. Like anywhere you just have to be cognizant of prices. read more

They always have an amazing selection and appreciate the consistent customer service!! Love this place

One of my go-to stations. Costco is always among the cheapest gas in town, and this and the Plain City ones are on my way to work. The gas discount alone covers the cost of the basic annual fee for me. This location is easy to get to, and in and out of. Plenty of room. Not far from the highway. read more

I'm a college student in Columbus, I do not live here regularly. My mom had given me one out of our three Costco cards so I could buy cheap food while here at school. Today I was not only rejected from purchasing my items but our Costco card was confiscated and I was accused of being a liar and a thief. Fuck the Costco police, acab, I want my card back. Fuck you, Xoxo, -Momo read more

Costco Wholesale - The police - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

This Costco is located in a great location near Easton. The parking area is big, and there is a gas station out front for those who swear by Costco gas. This particular store is set up opposite of the Polaris location. This means you enter on the left, a bit strange to me. Anyway, it's big, it's a warehouse. On my last visit I tried to eat the famous Costco beef hotdog. I got to the ketchup stand and gnats were all over it. Nasty!! The gnats were around all of the tables, and on every trash can. The hot dog was okay, but I won't need to order it again. read more

I'm just going to run into Costco quickly to grab one thing; I know exactly what I need. One hour later I exit pushing a cart full of wonderful things I never knew I needed. Two dozen eggs? They're such a bargain, though! Five tubes of toothpaste? I'll be stocked up for a year! Enormous box of garbage bags? I'll never run out! That's the Costco curse! It's reasonable at times, though, since you will sometimes find something amazing you really do need and want at a fantastic price, but then it disappears and is never seen again. This is a great Costco warehouse with their great gas station in front as well which is always a great deal compared with other gas stations. The warehouse is always clean and orderly. Although none of the aisles are labeled (standard for Costco), you do get the feel for things after a visit or two with foodstuffs on one side and other stuffs on the other side and miscellaneous stuffs in the middle. At the back you'll find the bakery, fresh produce, and meats. The checkout staff have always been very friendly in my experience. They have a pharmacy and an optical shop with eye exams available (though not every day). They have their own Costco brand (Kirkland) which consistently rates very highly (according to Consumer Reports) when compared with name brands. Check out their gift card selection; they usually have some incredible deals here. The membership is definitely worth the small annual fee (about $65 for the standard membership I think). Their food court is also a great stop for their classic foot long hot dog and soda for less than $2, and it's actually tasty. Overall, this is a great warehouse and Costco itself is a membership worth having! read more

Best value for your money! Great selection of fresh produce and rotisserie chicken that I've ever tasted, along with there rack of lamb!

Went for senior hours today from 8-9am and was surprised how many people were in line and how quickly the line went (20min. on a beautiful morning). Checkout went quickly with no wait and most items we wanted were available. Employees were friendly and organized handing out wipes and efficient checking us out. read more

I like Costco overall but this one is a very good one. Associates always trying to make it easier for you at the end and with the self checkout it just became way easier and faster. Also this Costco is always clean Tips: -always go 1 hour before closing or very early to avoid the crowds - get the pizza on your way out just because (it's great) - use the self checkout if you are buying few items (way faster) read more

We just signed up for Costco. So far I'm very impressed. The store is very clean and lots of bulk items to choose from. I especially like they sell Wild salmon. We never buy the farm raised salmon. I do recommend they have a self check out like Sams Club. I am keeping my membership at Sams too until I figure out which I like best! read more

A few years if you asked me what Costco was I would pretty refer to something close to Sam's Club or giant Wal-Mart supermarket, but even though it's comparable to that it's a different brand. This brand is also known for the products it sells in bulk with the top notch names, products and it's on brand name of Kirkland used throughout the store. Kirkland is more than just clothing, it can be household items as well. It's products that the everyday customer is really looking for when shopping at a bulk store. The customer wants clothes that will last throughout the year, so they cater to that need with the items of nice apparel. The customer may also need something specific like bed sheets, they also make that as well. Everything Costco sells are split up. Each side of the store is specific category. For instance, the produce section, then the meat and seafood is in another section, followed by the frozen food, bulk dry goods, and household supplies needed. I can always find everything I need at this Costco and more. Sometimes I even get that temptation to buy more than whats on my list, but know my limits where to stop as well. There's no doubt, Costco is the most sensible decision for bulk household items. It saves time and money to shop here for some of my family's household items. read more

Even though it's crazy busy, we always end up with all we need and then some. My favorite thing about this store is when BeBe is checking receipts! Too bad all Costco's can't have a BeBe, she always brightens my day with her friendly and joyful personality. read more

I will go to Costco and not Sam's Club. It's better prices and quality here. This is another place I must stop if at Easton. It's highly recommended to be a member. You receive a humongous coupon book each month. I can find most of the basic stuff I need. The essential things like toilet paper. I won't need any more for a few months. It also has a surprisingly good organic section in this store. They seem to change prices all the time so you should look online for what's on sale. I like that it also has a gas station here. Members of course get discounts with how much they have purchased. A Gold Star membership is $55. This is recommended for most individuals. An Executive membership is $110. This is recommended for households that have a lot to shop for. It's better shopping here than at Sam's Club. That is owned by the same family as Wal-Mart you know. I'm not a fan of chain stores but can shop at Costco. It has all the basic stuff you'll need. The membership is worth the cost if you come here each month and use the coupons they send to you. read more

I love this Costco, pretty surprised to see negative reviews. I'm guessing those unfortunate events were flukes. This location is awesome, always well staffed and stocked. Some gold finds here: organic half and half $5, French champagne (Kirkland brand through a French winery) $20 which is delicious/similar to moët, and Kirkland toilet paper and paper towels. Only downfall of Costco in general is the sales people sometimes there trying to sell me extra stuff, go away I'm on a mission. read more

5 ***** 100% top services, great values and selections. Great optometrist, tire department, fresh produces, deli prepared entrees...everything is great here! read more

Had a tire blow and went to the tire shop. They did not have the tire so they had to order it. Left the rim there so they could put the tire one. They got the tire in that day and said it was ready. I asked if they could put it on that night and they said I had to make an appointment for the next day. Considering that they don't even open up until 10 am that doesn't really help with people's work schedule. I already missed work the first day to order the tire. Ended up having to sit in the parking lot and put it on myself. read more

This is a great location where you can find everything from groceries, electronics, to clothing. The deals are always better than what you can find online or at other retailers. Our checkout experience was very efficient and we were out just in time to get some pizza and gasoline. read more

I like the outside design of this Costco! I still love the one in Plains City more but this was closer to campus as I picked up a friend. I was a little disoriented by the layout and had to ask someone for help. The women giving out free samples were talkative and so nice!! Wow! And some of the customers spoke to me randomly too. So nice as well!! Love this place!! Parking isn't awful either. Great place!! read more

There is nothing bad about Costco. I have been a member at Sam's for nearly 2 decades and finally swapped over the Costco and I cannot believe I waited so long to do so. The food and clothing is superb in quality to Sam's and the service is ON POINT. The cheap gas and affordable eyewear is icing on the cake. If you never been to Costco, make a day to check it out! read more

They got great stuff. Some managers are nice some others are not depending on the state but overall the store has a great selection of things! read more

The selection is great, and it's always an adventure to see what new item they have, but the staff make all the difference. I don't know much about their culture, but I can tell you it seems all the staff love working there! They have a very customer friendly return policy - no receipt, no problem, they can look it up. It's always clean and neat too. Prices on the gas are always lower than elsewhere. Membership fee is so worth the investment. read more

Good products at a good price. As long you need large quantities. Their partnered credit card has one of the best reward programs out there.

Went to get a replacement card. Two people behind the counter were helping others. Two were standing around doing absolutely nothing. I was standing in line for about 10 minutes when one of guys (i believe his name was Frederick) began helping another person who walked up with a return. I looked at him, obviously frustrated. He proceeded to tell me I was in the wrong line and helped the person who walked up much later. It felt like blatant discrimination. He said he was just trying to help me. I think he could have helped me when he was just standing around looking over everyone else's shoulder. Maybe he was right, but the signage is poor and all i know is that I was there much longer. In my opinion, he should have been more aware. read more

Great store only problem is the racists and that's the customers and staff that's the only thing I can say bad about costco

If I could get away with living inside a store I'd totally pick Costco. There's nothing I don't like about this place. I might go so far as to say I have very strong feelings toward the awesome prices, high quality, varied selections, and great service I receive here. Pro Tip - if you can, go during the day in the week. The lines are close to nonexistent. If you do go during the evenings or on the weekends, the parking lot might be rough but the associates work the line as quickly as possible. Everyone at the customer service desk is nice and knowledgeable. They've come a long way since opening last year. It's so easy to return products purchased online. The organic food options continue to grow throughout the store with frozen and fresh options. The clothing area offers dependable brands for the petite, big, and small. Members get a book full of manufacturer coupons every month which is another bonus. I tell ya, Costco rocks socks!! read more

Costco Wholesale - Its tire time! - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Columbus, Ohio

I've been going to Costco since way back in the day when it was still part of Price Club, and even on a single person's budget, have found ways to shop smart. However, I was a bit surprised to hear that Costco was planning a second store in the Columbus area, and even more so to hear that it would be at Easton, just a few miles away from their Polaris site. It's off of Stelzer Road, across from the main area of the mall, but make no mistake, you are firmly ensconced in the suburban sprawl of Easton. I'm (obviously) not a fan of the area, and the patrons of the store more heavily reflect its surroundings than does the main Polaris store, probably because it was drawing on a larger area. Costcos have two basic layouts, and this one mirrors the Polaris store, which can be a little confusing at first. The merchandise is essentially the same, though I did find organic hearts of romaine and a peach variety of Naked smoothie which I hadn't seen in the other store. There's also a larger refrigerated food section. This Costco does have a gas station. I'm a little dubious at the ability of Costco to maintain two stores in such close proximity, though I feel that it's more likely the Easton store will drain off the Polaris location, rather than vice versa. I know that I prefer the Polaris location, and will probably continue going to that one; hopefully it will be less crowded now that the second store is available in Easton, and will be closer for residents of New Albany, Gahanna, etc. Update: Please, please be careful in the parking lot! I don't know what it is about the layout of this lot, but I've almost been hit twice by people driving way too fast. I know the deals are good, but not worth getting in an accident! read more
