Last night’s Costco dream

Last night I had a dream that I was at Costco, except this Costco had two different floors, and you got between them with an escalator. The problem was getting the shopping cart between the floors, so in my dream they had this special shopping cart escalator where you could put your shopping car and then claim it again on the other floor.

In my dream, I was shopping on the top floor and had put several items, including frozen vegetables, in the cart. I was going to continue my shopping downstairs, so I put my cart in the weird looking cart escalator, and when I went downstairs to claim it.

They had an interesting technique for claiming carts–you had to choose one of two items for sale that matched your personality based on items already in the cart. I was given the choice between cheesy Pringles potato chips, and ranch flavored chips. I chose the ranch chips.

Then I was informed that I chose incorrectly and that I couldn’t claim my cart or guess again or do anything else to get my cart.

I was pretty darn mad, so I went to the customer service desk to claim that I wasn’t satisfied with being a Costco member and that I wanted my membership fees returned. And the customer service desk seemed both disorganized and unwilling to refund my money.

Is I got more insistent and upset, I woke up.
