Security Review: Costco
Summary:
In order to shop at Costco, one must have a membership and proof of that membership. When an individual purchases a membership at Costco, they and their spouse may use the membership at any Costco. Otherwise, no one else is allowed to use that me mbership. If you have ever been to Costco, you know that they check for membership cards at the door and when making purchases at the register. They do not, however, check the name on the membership against another ID to verify you are the person on the card. At the front door, they glance to make sure you have a card, so they do not ever examine the fine details at this stage.
