The Costco parking lot is an absolute war zone right now. People have lost their minds

I just witnessed a shouting match over a parking spot at Costco. One lady was waiting with her blinker on for 5 minutes, and some guy in a truck just swooped in and took it the second the car pulled out. Honking, screaming, people blocking the lanes... it’s chaos out there. Is getting a rotisserie chicken really worth raising my blood pressure this much? If you’re heading out shopping this weekend, bring your patience (and maybe a helmet). #CostcoRun #ParkingLotRage #HolidayMadness #RoadRage #ShoppingNightmare #TrafficAlert #BadDrivers
