[QUOTE="Up Y'oars, post: 399007, member: 764"] One also has to consider when you're buying some name brand stuff you're not actually getting the "name brand" quality. For example, Costco does sell Bridgestone Duelers, however there is a lower quality than the name brand line. Costco contracts with major companies in order to achieve a lower price point. Menards does similar things to achieve their marketing "price points". Costco sells Interstate batteries but you're not getting Interstate battery quality. Interstate Battery store on Main Street will NOT take these in on warranty. You have to go back through Costco. Menards sells Honeywell products. Honeywell will NOT honor the product sold as it wasn't to their specifications. It was to Menard's specifications. Yes, Costco does service their own things, but if you live way's out from the store you cannot get the local guy to help you. You're going back to the membership store to settle up. Yes, there are good deals when you see them. Take 'em because they won't likely be back as they were a one-time purchase by their procurement team. [/QUOTE]
