I used to use Google Express in Lakewood when the prices matched the store. Now they are about 20% more than the store. (and they dont carry water)
Wish they had the same prices as the store.

While prices were the same as in store we didn't go to Costco for almost a year.
The only thing we still order from Costco via GE is water, we go through six cases a week on average and its worth the few extra dollars to not have to schlep it from the store

And i still haven't used my $20 coupon, that's a real sign of how lousy they're doing, I used to order weekly with them.

Indeed. Went from frequent orders to zero, when Costco prices went up 20%.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!
