The store in Chula Vista may be Costco USA closest to the border.
And as for knocking the number of Mexicans bringing hundreds of millions of dollars to the USA, I say, GO FOR IT!
(In Spanish and verbatim reporting my conversation with the Costco store manager in Morelia, Michoacan)
"Sir this is this week's flyer for Costco USA. Why does this flyer state the normal price of this flat panel television is HALF THE PRICE of the Costco Mexico LG "pantalla plano" television"
Response
"This is not the USA" (swear to god)
And neither price included add-on taxes.
So when I priced a group 34 LTH battery at COSTCO in Ensenada it was four dollars and change less expensive than the one I bought in Chula Vista. Both cost in excess of one hundred dollars. The USA battery was subject to 8.25% state sales tax. The Mexico battery was subject to 16% national sales tax.
42 month outright guarantee of the USA battery versus 30 month guarantee of for the Mexican battery.
With the USA battery being four pounds heavier.
Let them come north and buy billions of dollars worth of USA merchandise! I am for FREE TRADE not just political diatribe but in reality.
A few Mexico old-hands have a saying with regard to too many young gringos in Mexico
