Costco has had to enlarge their shopping cart four times! Costco sells very large volumes of merchandise and achieving high inventory turnover In addition to providing a wide range of products and services for personal use, Costco's warehouses ... help small-to-medium-size businesses reduce costs on purchasing for resale. Since Costco has such high sales volume and rapid inventory turnover it is able to receive cash from the sale of a large portion of its inventory before it has to pay back its suppliers. The use of float is a major advantage in its own right.

A main difference among services is that Sam’s sells pet insurance and Costco doesn’t. (Consumer Reports doesn’t generally recommend pet insurance.) Other differences: Sam’s Web site features product auctions and accepts orders, which are readied for in-store pickup. The service is free, but you’ll still have to stand in line to pay.
