The Costco stores my wife and I have used prior to moving to MN have been our go to stores. The Puyallup WA location has always been customer-oriented, and the employees appear happy. It has been an adjustment moving to MN. The Coon Rapids store appears to have good products and produce overall. The store setup is not desirable traffic wise. You have to pull your cart from the exit side of the store crossing paths with those leaving the store to get to the entrance. Making this simple for the customer might pay off for this store. The self-checkout in the WA stores have always been a preference. The Coon Rapids store seems to be slower with response times and doesn't have a handheld device to scan larger bulk items like water requiring assistance. Tonight, on a slower Halloween night about an hour before close, I witnessed one associate assist someone and then head for the small counter/desk behind the check-out to talk shop with another associate. I did ask if someone could assist maybe too loud, directing my voice towards the two holding up the desk and fortunately a nice young lady came from another self-checkout where she had been assisting someone else. I didn't think it took two people to supervise one person as these two never acknowledged me. I did hear one of the two say to the other "is this night almost over?" as I left the checkout. I guess it's best to use the regular checkout lanes at this store. This isn't the first-time buying bulk items this store hasn't responded efficiently at the self-check-out. I do like Costco but have reduced my visits to this store. I would love to see a Costco opened in Blaine MN for the approximate 70,000 population that has a lot of spending power.

Favorite store to shop in coon rapids. They always have deals, and you get more bang for your buck. I love getting fruits from here; they are always fresh.

So organized. Lots of employees to assist with any questions. It was my first visit. I was truly impressed.

Here's what I didn't know about Costco Pharmacy: you don't have to be a member to the warehouse & online services! You can use Good Rx at Costco, but the membership price might* be better. I had to ask for the prescriptions that I had filled here-both were less expensive than Good Rx or my insurance (news to me!). You DO have to inform the cashier that you are a member & have them scan your card. It was well worth it to me to drive a little further & reap the substantial savings.While I was checking out, the next customer was buying dog & cat medicine for his pets! Plus, you can always stop at the snack spot on the way out & have a frozen treat!

Burned my pizza then refuse to replace it, laughed and sent me to a membership desk for a refund refusing to do it in the food court.

Very slow and they gatekeep the parmesan and chilli flakes. Why would you put the straws on the counter? Either put them in the cup or put them where people need them.

Visited on a Tuesday at 5-6pm: Everything was stocked! everything was clean! I thought they had a good variety of produce (helloooo spring) and I was able to pick up my miscellaneous staple items too. I usually get overwhelmed here on weekend trips, so maybe weekdays are the way to go? Also - I noticed they have fresh sushi makki rolls now. I'm not sure if that's a new thing or just a new to me thing, but I'll have to try some next time!

Thank you to the gas attendant that was so kind to me this morning after I was reprimanded by another customer for pulling ahead and using the pump ahead of him. I had two little kids in the car, one of which was a newborn I just had less than 2 weeks ago who also happens to cry incessantly in the van. I was on the verge of tears when you assured me that what I did was right and the other gentleman shouldn’t have been berating me. Thank you for helping me pump my gas and just being a genuinely good human. Can someone please tell him how much I appreciate it, seeing as I could barely hold my composure until I got back in my van?
