My husband is an executive member but I'm not on his list of members so he buys me $300-$500 gift cards so I can go shopping when he's not with me. Costco stops me at the door and treats me like a second class citizen and tells me I need to have a costco membership. My thing is if you are going to treat people with gift cards as second class citizens then why sell any gift cards at all? Why don't you just get rid of it if you are going to treat people like crap? Costco will lose thousands of dollars from me because I will not be shopping there anymore. Also in the baking department they have a useless bakery manager who is not authorized to write happy birthday notes on the cakes.

They are NOT mistreating you or treating you like a second class citizen. They are just following policy. While you do not need to have a membership, you do need ID. They may lose business from you, but not your husband. If you are married, are you not too old to be throwing temper tantrums? Calling the bakery manager useless because they do not allow him to write happy birthday on cakes shows how immature you are. This could explain why you are throwing a temper tantrum. Something usually done by toddlers.
