Smorty,

Ok but what is Costco? Does it stand for cost cooperation?

isVeryLoud,

Cost company, otherwise it’d be costcoop

capital, (edited )

Came here to make fun of the obvious misspelling of luminous but learned something instead.

Numinous means “arousing spiritual or religious emotion; mysterious or awe-inspiring”; also “supernatural” or “appealing to the aesthetic sensibility.”

Costco is maybe the least capitalist company you can find nowadays

grue,

Maybe the least capitalist large one, not that that’s saying much.

The real least capitalist company would surely be one of those single-location hippie grocery co-ops or something like that.

Zirconium,

Sprouts I think?

grue,

Nah, Sprouts is just a normal corporate grocery store that tries to have a granola image.

The example I had in mind was Sevananda. (Its website is too polished to be the nationwide winner, though – especially since it’s touting a promotional thing they apparently had with Steve Harvey a year ago and that’s way too “establishment.”)

Do you still have those near you??

grue,

Just one that I know of (mentioned in my other comment).

We do in the twin cities.

herrcaptain,

They’re still a publicly-traded company and are thus beholden to their shareholders, but they seem to have done ok in spite of that. I’m certain it’s only a matter of time though - eventually new leadership will come in who will only care about maximizing profits.

LoamImprovement,

The day the $1.50 hotdog dies is the day my membership ends. Muffins already went up $3 in the last two years.

herrcaptain,

Well, at least while the founder is alive, he’ll kill to keep you a member.

Catoblepas,

Surely employee owned companies like Bob’s Red Mill fit the bill better?

Okay, fair, Bob’s Red Mill is a very special exception

This but unironically

Livin’ that Kirkland life.

Gork,

I’ll take a pallet of granola bars, please.

chickenf622,

If it has $1.50 hot dogs I’m down.

LordKitsuna,

The day that hot dog changes price is the day we know Costco Has Fallen

PhobosAnomaly,

I feel seasick
