Costco to start scanning membership cards at the entrance of all its stores - Lemmy.World

I shop at Costco. I don’t mind scanning my card. I suspect anyone who shops at Costco does not care one way one another. This isn’t news, and anyone getting irate about this should find a new topic.
Agreed. The only change is a machine scanning your card rather than a pair of eyeballs.
Doesn’t the card go into a machine at the checkout anyways? They’re just changing the location of the machine, really, not introducing something new.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you had to scan the card twice now because of this though. I doubt they’d have the ability or foresight to scan as they walk through the door and nowhere else.
