Costco Wholesale Columbia, SC

This warehouse appears to be massive. I like the selections and the courteous staff

Awesome Variety and pricing if you buy in bulk. Many items priced very reasonable though.

Its Costco; what can you say? Lots of good stuff to be found inside if you buy in bulk. Clean organized facility that handles crowds well. Will return.

I typically enjoy my weekend trips to Costco, usually. There is one problem, but it has nothing to do with the store. It's the customers. I don't know if people that shop there feel a sense of entitlement because we are "members", but I have never met so many rude people in one place in my entire 40 something years on this planet. Not so much as an "excuse me" or smile from ANYONE! If this is what society is moving towards, I probably should just stay home.

We have visited Costco stores across the USA. Columbia, SC is sadly terrible. Dirty, poorly supplied restrooms and food court, and absent of southern hospitality. Auto center and propane fill have horrible management. We will certainly try the Charleston area with the hope they are better managed.

If you buy in bulk, this is the place for you. I still proce match but this is one of my go to places.

We have always loved Sam's Club. When Costco moved in we let our Sam's Club membership go to get a Costco one. My husband is even more impressed with Costco than he was Sam's Club and thats saying something!

We just picked up some 32" curved computer monitors for a great price!

This place is typically overcrowded on most afternoons and weekends. People don't seem to be overtly rude, but many seemed preoccupied enough to where caution is recommended if you are standing in thorough fairs or coming around blind corners. I would recommend avoiding this place if you have concerns regarding foot injuries as I have yet to come out of this place without being dinged in the ankle or worse. But I suppose that's what you have to expect if you want the deals Costco can offer in today's economy. Everything else is what you would expect from a Costco though. Affordable prices, I recommend the frozen swedish meatballs and the rotisserie chickens. Keep your eyes open for regular sales too because there are opportunities for insane savings.

Great prices. But their roast chicken for $4.99. Feeds 4 people easily.

Anything and everything you could possibly want and more can be found at Costco's. Try the food for the first time. The hot dog and drink were more than enough to fill you up. Also tried the chicken wrap which was delicious but too much food. Highly recommend you eat on your next visit

Has gone downhill the past year, especially front end. Numerous times workers improperly load items in my cart, and things get smashed. I typically have my husband with me and he’ll start loading our stuff instead. Today he wasn’t with me and it was the worst. Lettuce underneath 12lbs of onions, berries underneath other heavy items, bananas buried underneath, and on and on. I was distracted watching the items being rung up so didn’t notice how my groceries were being poorly handled. Once I headed for the door I noticed and started digging out the more fragile items. As I found more and more, I decided it needed to be brought up to management, as this is happening too often but I typically don’t complain. Manager wasn’t much help. Only said sorry and that he would address it with staff. I explained this was unacceptable as I just spent $400 on groceries . He asked was anything damaged or come open? I explained I didn’t know yet but at the very least all the produce is going to go bad much quicker due to the result of being smashed. He said let him know if anything’s damaged. Obviously he didn’t care, it’s not his groceries that he paid for. I’ve never had this issue with the Augusta store and I will go back to shopping at that one. They take pride in their work. I’ve
Given too many changes to the Columbia Costco store.

I never really see the stuff I see online. It's only 1 in the city and it's always packed so maybe I'm missing out on the good stuff.
