Thinking of going to Costco tomorrow to get a membership. Any one know if they have a problem with folks carrying?

I've walked in and out OC and CC of the one in White Marsh many times. Nary a peep has been spoken

 

[Jake4now]

Prohibited.

And I've checked, there is no sign.

 

[FrankZ]

Whoops.

 

[Bertfish]

If they're so set on that stance where is the signage on the store? Sounds like corporate ass kissing that they don't really have an appetite for at the store level

 

[River02]

Of course "they" will have a problem with it...until they don't-- "They" will embrace the woke suckage until a a good guy w/a gun stops a mass shooting in their parking lot or in their store---

There are no metal detectors at the Owings Mills Costco

There are $1.50 hot dog and soda combos

 

[SkiPatrolDude]

This is not enforceable by law. Concealed means concealed. Don't be a dingus and you'll be just fine.

That meal deal cannot be beat

$1.69 after tax. The food and the price is sexy

 

[Brychan]

Thanks all

I'm usually a rule follower and a bit of a coward, but I don't care what Costco (or nearly anyone else) might have a problem with.

I have not seen a sign at the White Marsh CC.

Why worry ? Just carry on with life as a legal resident/citizen

 

[EXIT WOUND]

Who cares what their policy says. They can only ask you to leave. For now at least...

 

[pbharvey]

Don't be a dingus and you'll be just fine.

Following that rule alone will get you through most of life without a scar.

Jesus H Christ, yep, leave it to another MDS member. Can I? Can I? No signage, but just KEEP asking until SOMEONE tells you NO!
WTF, you lemmings wouldn't know "Freedom" if it walked up and kicked you right in the nutz! And if you MET freedom on a street corner, it would listen to you for two minutes, excuse itself and walk away...

 

[eruby]

Concealed means concealed
Concealed means concealed
Hi ho the Derry oh
Concealed means concealed
