People are boycotting Costco for requiring shoppers to wear masks in stores.

this is an example of how bored you must be that you want to continue to talk about this. I do not.

That's the beauty of an open forum; we can read and respond as we want (unless Matrix objects. ) Some people actually don't spend their lives here so see discussions a few days later or whenever they check in.

Aneeda, no one is ever forced to take part in a conversation on any subject. Just bow out if it bothers you that much.

I'll put my 2 cents in....I went to a super market with my mask and rubber gloves....I also do the same when I go to the drug store....

I was in the market for half an hour, while my husband sat in the car....I used the machine to put the items on and can wrap the items...
There were some bratty girls running around the store....They were teens....They didn't have masks.....They looked at me and if I could've hit
them, I would...But I didn't want to go to jail...They thought it was funny that I had a mask on....Some kids don't understand to be safe...

Also, when you enter the front store they have a girl and a guy who work for the store....They where masks and gloves....They are there
to count high many people are in the store...If it's really crowded you have to wait for some people to come out....

The question is: In your area, are the masks required by law? If they aren't, it's up to each individual whether or not they wear masks.
And, if your mask protects you, why would it be a concern if others choose not to wear a mask?

I wear a mask when shopping because it's the law. I don't wear a mask outside.

I don't go out a lot,but when I do I wear a mask. My husband never leaves the house without a mask and we both put on rubber gloves if we are buying something or even when he needs to put gas in the car. We also have wipes and hand sanitizers in the house and car. In my opinion it's better to be safe than sorry.

Well, after not shopping since mid-March, yesterday I went with my husband to Sam's Club and Costco, we both wore masks and gloves. At Sam's, the majority of the customers wore masks, just a few inconsiderate people in the store who didn't.

At Costco, masks were mandatory, which was a good thing, makes sense right now. They had a cop and a store manager/employee at the entrance, where you couldn't even walk into the lobby without showing your card and wearing your mask. They were both very nice and thankful to all who entered, and they both wore masks. Coming out, we noticed there was just a small incident before we exited, a man who obviously refused to wear a mask was refused entrance into the store and was angrily walking back to his vehicle. Nice to have a cop there in case anyone gets smart, and nice not to have incidents happen inside the store, putting customers at risk.

All in all it was a good day, no lines to wait on, people were respectful of each other and kept their distance, store wasn't too crowded and things went smooth.
