I agree with >>10880735 , that's complete bullshit, many of the items Costco sells are priced much higher than outside Costco. At the one near me, Costco sells a huge bag of Sunkist "sea-cured" lemons for $10. I can buy the same number of lemons at a local grocery store for $5. Costco also sells eggs for about triple what they cost in the grocery stores (because Costco's eggs are "ethically farmed", whatever the fuck that means).

If Costco isn't making outrageous amounts of profit on that stuff, then their management is a bunch of fucking retards.

I still have a membership because their prices on certain basics are far lower than anywhere else around me -- cheese, peanut butter, and of course their rotisserie chickens. But you have to be very careful about what to buy there or else you'll get anally raped.
