Yup - the membership desk can look that up for you easily. (Or I think you can find one of the people with handheld scanners that go around scanning people's cards to try to upsell customers to the Executive membership.)

Yesterday in north San Diego area in stock at Poway on Scripps-Poway Parkway, not carried at Carmel Mountain Ranch. Both locations "get it" and are quite familiar with the cards and who has them and the fact that some of us want lots of them.
Also a notice attached to the cardboard display noting that although in bankruptcy AA is not going out of business, the cards have no expiration and are returnable.

Available in Boston Area finally!
I was at Waltham, MA Costco this morning and they have a large display of the cards. Purchased another stash without issue. Per the manager on duty, they are also available at the Danvers & Everett locations.

Btw, are you referring to the Manchester location? I was in STL at Thanksgiving and they didn't have them but responded promptly to my suggestion box entry.

Saw them at the Costco in Rego Park, Queens & Costco in East Harlem + 125th. Call them and ask to see if they still have it in stock...

I actually remember seeing them towards the end of last year at that location. (I didn't end up buying any since I'm still working on my stashes that I bought in DC and ATL.)

I was looking for those placards and didn't see them. Maybe they moved them from the usual place. But it's nice to know they still have them. Thanks!

No need for the placard, just pull the photo on post #813 to your cell, it has the stocking number and bar code. Any cashier should be able to pull the product up with that, if they have any, and you are good to go. There is NO relationship to the number of placards and cards in stock (if any). You tell them how many you want at checkout.

When you enter the store, you make a left turn heading towards the exit lanes, and the first beam had aa gc's on the side facing "you"--there were other gc's on other sides of that beam. [This is along the first main shopping aisle.]

I keep missing you and Blumie as you always post how you were just there too. It's good to know they have them and let's hope it lasts. I wish they'd bring back the Hyatt certs (and FFN offers) but thats another story.
