It is open to the public. Just state at the door you're getting a prescription, and you're in. (but you will have to pay cash) I do that and it's great! Low prices, no membership fees! . The way to go! BTW, you won't be able to purchase anything else, but you can save a bunch on drugs.

Its not a gimmick. If you don't think you are paying to shop at other stores, think again: they lure you in with loss leaders and then overcharge you for other items. They get their money from you either way. If you want to overpay, then go to regular retail stores. If you want to save, then go to BJ's, or Costco where you can save. You don't have to be a business or a large family either - as most of these membership warehouses have optical and pharmacy where anyone can save. All in all, its a great way to save money. Hint: get the Executive membership.

I simply did not renew when my card expired. Maybe we should all let them know that. Costco’s membership is ridiculously high. I simply did not renew when my card expired.

Other optical stores wanted $199 just to replace my antiglare lenses with my new script and Costco only charged me $65. That is a big savings in one shot. Also most prescriptions are a lot less than other places. But what I love the most is the unique food items not offered other places and certainly not at that discount.

You can get the same deals or better at other stores. All of the other so called services I can get through my credit union or work. People need to wise up and stop paying the membership fee and watch how fast they drop it. I can’t justify paying Costco $50 for the right to shop at there store.
