COST with WMT. . . gets you Sam's and Costco together. . .they just opened both Costco and Sam's Club in the same month. . .within a few blocks of one another in the Cool Springs area of Nashville. . .not far from here. Both are jam packed with shoppers. . .this is a VERY upscale area, where houses are often 5,000 - 10,000 sq ft. And carts were loaded. . . but Sam's club had similar traffic.

I just happened to like Costco better for several reasons. . . and you are right about their bakery. . but did you know they had a flower shop, too?

Unfortunately, they are not keeping their fresh fish area. . .it was just for promotional reasons. . .I called them a tease. . .get us used to fresh lobster, salmon, prawns, etc. . . .then take it away. . .
