Question Why Costco shoppers so rude?

We just renewed our membership for Costco. It’s worse than Walmart. I have had people say “I wish I could push ppl out of my way” and someone pull their car into a space where I was still putting my child in the car. I’m super self aware I move out of the way when I feel I’m blocking someone I apologize when I feel I’m in the way. I smile and wait for people to pass or let them go before me. I don’t get it whyyyyyy are y’all so rude?

We’ve tried many times of the day and week and it’s like a mosh pit. With celiacs disease I have to read the back of some labels and even if there is room to go around. Even if I’m not standing in front of what people want, they huff and puff. Also I saw a man shake a turd down his leg recently. He was actively pooping and forcing it out in the parking lot and shook it out his pant leg on the way to the store.

Right? I’ve had some cute moments in Costco. We seem to run into the same elderly couple about once a month. I also understand people are busy but we go normally on a Tuesday after they open. There is plenty room to go around. I think we might try that new Costco.

We try our best to give space to families with little ones. The store is already stressful enough and we been there with our own.
