Most of the employees are at the register with a couple here and there walking about or stocking the shelves. The store boasts a huge inventory of meats including but not limited to a variety of steaks, sausages and cold cuts, cheeses, desserts, condiments, seasonings, even baking and cookware, and everything else in between. The prices were decent, some items cost less than in other stores; some the same. Overall, this was good initial visit; actually, I've been here before but it's been a while since my last visit. I will definitely have to check this place out again when I have more time to peruse the other isles.

I had to try out one of Costco's new food court items: the chicken fingers and sauce, and I have to…read moreadmit that I wasn't expecting them to be as good as they were! As usual for Costco, the value is insane as you get 5 massive chicken fingers for $6.99 and it comes with a big cup of sauce, but pictures don't really do them justice because these were pretty thick pieces of chicken. They were seasoned and cooked perfectly, and the sauce was perfectly portioned, it is the exact amount of sauce needed, and it is excellent and tangy. This is going to be a dangerous item for me, because not only am I going to get them again and again, but I might be getting them instead of Raising Cane's, which is insane to me. I also got a cookie, which honestly was good but cooked a little too much for my taste, as it was too crisp and almost burnt, and I prefer mine a little softer. But a nice addition is they added call in number for ordering whole pizzas ahead of time for pickup!

If you try to use the self check lanes, half of them are usually out of commission or don't accept cash or there's an 80 year old with a full cart taking about an hour to scan their items and then usually needing help to do it.

Talk about overpriced and underwhelming products and service...I sent my daughter to Raleys this…read moreafternoon to pick up groceries for supper. Nothing fancy, we were planning meatloaf, baked potatoes and broccoli. Bill was ridiculous and whe I tried opening the brown sugar, it was hard as a rock. I asked my daughter if she had noticed and she said she had, and even asked for help to find a fresh package. She was told this was all they had and each and every package was hard as a rock. I'm disappointed in Raleys. I'm willing to pay a higher price for the convenience of them being close to the house and having a good selection and high quality- but honestly, I won't go back if they're going to stock damaged or old items .

Maria, Marry, and Mimi are absolutely brilliant, courteous, and highly efficient. They have endured prolonged corporate restructuring, changes to the entire floor plan, loss of some of their best (RIP Trevis) and not reflected in any reviews. Their incredibly knowledgeable team operates with stellar performance that people completely take for granted, never mind a few peevish one-star reviews which bear no relation whatsoever to the professionalism benefiting the Carson community. These outstanding individuals assist hundreds of people every week and simply don't get enough credit for how much they have done right, making the difference nobody sees-- they are like front-end phantoms you might not even notice on a busy day- which seems to be every day! They have a working knowledge of every single product being sold, and where to find it. I have even been met at the register someone handing me the very product I couldn't even pronounce correctly to find that someone had gone out of their way to make sure I found what I needed and handed it to me while I was already in checkout! This is to set the review section straight, and you can ignore all peevish, resentful reviews bearing no reflection of what this great team has done to improve this location over the years!

She went on to say that I should move to Ca. because I probably loved Newsome. WTH. She doesn't know me or where I'm from. She has no personality, or manners, or professionalism. She is a cancer to an already substandard store. I'm 73 and it's hard enough to get out, but to have to deal with Mimi is a nightmare. I am sure I am not the first to report her. Not good, Smiths.

I wanted to stop in cause I saw as I was browsing the internet, that Costco has changed up the…read morebagel selection. They sell them in bags of 8 now, instead of requiring you like before to buy two bags of six for a dozen bagels. The new price is basically $5.00 for 8, so I guess the price per bagel has gone up, but what hasn't. HERE IS THE BIG NEWS! THE BAGELS ARE NOW WATER BOILED! I saw the big sign on the wall, "water boiled". What that means is they're more like real bagels like you would find in an actual bagel shop, a more dense and chewy bagel, yeah like New York, I guess, even though I've never been. The previous bagels were basically fluffy beard donuts! Costco ended their association with Einstein's bagels (the bread donut ones) and now makes their own using water boiling before baking at each store. I tried them and, whoa, what a difference, it way better. Maybe not totally as good as an actual bagel shop, but way better than what they had before. I used to avoid Costco bagels, but not any more. Try them out!

One of the workers (female on the bigger side) started to yell at me saying that she will automatically turn off the registers at 11. I told her that it's okay I'm just waiting for someone to which she responded "no it's not okay we all want to get home." I was surprised and didn't respond to which she told me that she will call the cops on me if I don't leave. I told her that I was waiting for my wife and would be leaving quickly. I do take some fault for coming in so close to closing time but I made sure to stand by the exit to not confuse the workers about me potentially still purchasing something. Will probably only come during the day time and avoid going at night.
