This made me laugh really hard, especially the FAQ.
Q: Why is Costco Wholesale selling caskets?
A: As a service to our membership base.
DUH, so they can make a buck rapping the bereaved like the rest of the Casket Industry. Ya gotta check out the Lady of Guadalupe and the Charles. You lived a long life – TREAT YOURSELF!
Also on their web site...... Condoms & Diapers....... Costco - alpha and omega.

From Long Time Reader,
You missed the bigger picture here. In many states, in fact your home state, it is illegal for anyone to sell a casket except for a licensed funeral director. So there is not much chance of a discount price here. All caskets are sold pretty much at a factory list price. In time of need there is usually not much haggling over the price of a box,nor shopping with other funeral directors. In fact one carpenter was trying to build pine boxes in Wilderado, near Ararillo, but he was not allowed to sell them. You have to buy them at a funeral director. Cosco is a good deal, in that the price of a casket is in the $2500(at the funeral director) range for a cheap $200 tin box. Maybe the law will be changed and Walmart can sell them here. LOVE YOU, DOD
