10 Reasons You Should Never Let Your Partner Go to Costco Alone

Hey there, friends! So, let’s talk about a little known truth about shopping at Costco: if you love your sanity and your home’s space, never let your partner roam those aisles solo! Trust me, I made this mistake and learned the hard way. Here are ten compelling reasons why a solo trip to Costco for your spouse is a recipe for chaos:

1. Electronics Temptation: The moment they step into the electronics section, it’s like they’re in a candy store! Chances are, they’ll come home with a brand new flat-screen TV you didn’t even ask for.
2. Random Sports Gear: Your partner might come back with a tennis racket and a giant pack of tennis balls—even though your family doesn’t play tennis. What’s up with that?
3. Unexpected Hobbies: Who needs a scuba set and wetsuit? Apparently, your partner thinks they do after just one trip to Costco.
4. Dessert Overload: They might be tempted to snag a 10-lb. cheesecake simply because they couldn’t resist the sample. That’s a lot of cake!
5. Cookie Dough Madness: When they see cookie dough on sale, they’ll likely grab not one, but two tubs. Perfect timing for your diet, right?
6. Obscure Office Supplies: Say hello to an industrial-size paper shredder! Because who doesn’t need one of those just sitting around the house?
7. Crouton Catastrophe: Your partner may think it’s a good idea to buy a massive 5-lb. bag of organic croutons, even if you don’t run a restaurant.
8. Holiday Lawn Decor: They could come back with a giant inflatable snow globe for the yard. It looked cool in the store, but now you have a giant decoration taking over your yard.
9. Shed Shenanigans: If they spot a shed on sale, they might buy it even if you already have one. Because, why not?
10. Excessive Food Purchases: Finally, they might decide to get 200 hamburger rolls for dinner when your family consists of just four people. What are you going to do with 196 leftover rolls?

I used to send my well-meaning partner off to Costco, but now I can’t help but worry about what strange items will make their way into my home. It’s tempting to let them help out, but the chaos that ensues is often more than I bargained for.
