i like costco because they sell really big things, but pay really big wages.
but the more self-interested motivation is that they also have the most liberal return policy known to humankind. really. i defy you to find a more accepting one.
i was worried about returning the sound system that i had bought for the weekend. forget that. the guy in front of me returned a big jar of peanuts. two-thirds empty. that he didn't buy.
yes, that's right, he returned 1/3 a jar of peanuts that he did not purchase and got full store credit. jeez.
