Costco Cracking Down On Card Sharing
Costco said in a statement that its expansion of self-checkout services has led to more nonmember shoppers using membership cards that do not belong to them to checkout. The company said it will begin to ask all shoppers to show their membership card with their photo at self-checkout stations.

“You used to ride on a chrome horse
With your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder

To be on your own
With no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone?”
