    1. Costco. The only place Where you walk in for Milk and leave with joy, Snacks, and a Story.

    2. Yes, you tap a melon & press an avocado to gauge ripeness, why would one not take a nap on a mattress.

    3. Costco Really is the only Place Where you can buy 48 Muffins and Witness a sitcom episode at the Same Time.

    4. Maybe more people should do this half way through their shops. Costco seems to have a disproportionate number of grumpy people.

      “I really want to buy this $1758 build-it-yourself hot tub kit, but I’m too tired to push it to the registers, so I’m going to need a nap first.”

    6. OSHA has entered the chat.
      Emergency Exit Blocked.

      It’s like a Pokémon episode. Gotta wake the dude up so everyone can evacuate safely if needed! 😅

    7. Good on him for giving it a real test! Ive found the mattress sales places tests aren’t really valid because you lay down for a few seconds/minute top while a pesky sales person is hovering around.

      Bought my last new mattress like that, was disappointed, tried to take it back under their 30 day “no questions” warranty, found out that was a PITA (“well, you dont get a refund, you get a credit for another mattress in stock!”-ok, which ones are in that price point? “Hmmm, that one!”). So instead, I made that one into a guest bed and asked friends and ended up buying a satisfactory one online from Macys.

      Basically, mattress shopping sucks!

    8. That’s the only way to test the mattress. I was once asked by the staff to do this in store on the floor before buying. Asked to stay there for the night, was refused

      Blocking the emergency exit is not the best option. However, this guy is smart. Here is the inside scoop, mattress companies don’t want you to know. If you price compare mattresses from one store to another. Same brand and model mattress, you may see that one sells it cheaper. This is not the case, the mattresses are actually different but sold under the same name. They custom make mattress per vendor. This is intentionally done so when price comparing, they maintain profit margins. So there is no true way to actually get a mattress other than lay on it and test it out, and buy the one you like. If you ever doubt this, when price comparing, check the full model number on the tag.

    10. I wish they have an area where you can lay down to try out the mattresses. It’s hard to make a decision to buy one without trying.

      Make sure to post his box spring testing, paying and loading of the merchandise.

    12. I went the other day to Costco to get flour for holiday baking. At the electronic section they had a Roland Piano at a discount. And a guy was sitting at the piano, playing some classics from the Charlie Brown soundtrack, and other stuff. He sang too. So we got a free concert. I think that and the Gas at $2.20/gal filled me with joy

      Right in front of the emergency exit. Well, if I’m going to be trapped, might as well be at Costco.

      That’s the way to see if the mattresses are comfortable. Go to any mattress store there are no mattress’s against a wall, all set up to try out.

      Dad shoes? Check

      Dad plaid? Check.

      Sick of this shit and just wants to be on the couch?

      Check

      No way I’m buying a mattress without lying in it. 😂
      (Fun fact: I just learned that “laying: to set something down on the ground. Lying: to lay your body down as in resting)
