Q: Is there a minimum order?
A: No. Order one item … Order 100 items. No minimums. No penalties for ordering small or huge.
Q: Why would I do this? I only shop local.
A: Well…we are local and Costco is our wholesaler…just like Clark’s or City Market and Mountain Market use Unfi, Western Family, Sysco, US Foods, Shamrock and the-you-name-it-Food-Corp-company to truck things in from all over the country or world. Costco is known for quality. Sure, real local is your local farm. That’s the real thing. Use our service to supplement, then, with lots of quality stuff you can’t get “Locally.”

Q: What if I have a large order for catering an event? Can I still place an order online?

A: Yes!

A: Not even close…seriously different…try this service a couple of times for your favorite stuff and see the difference.
A: The Costco/Kirkland Signature Brand is world renowned for their quality control and selection and having incredible employees. Sam’s Club has the same suppliers and culture as Wal-Mart.
Q: Isn’t Costco all about bulk?
A: Look closer … some is volume based … tons is not … you can shop here with us at South’s Market every week or every other week and save big $. Already we have singles, couples and small families are ordering regularly. Some order weekly.
Q: Why are these prices different from Costco’s?
A: Everything is marked up variably with the goal of keeping your average shopping bill or average cart 20% or so below Montrose … and 50% – 70%or so below Telluride, Ridgway and Crested Butte. In a recent price comparison at City Market in Montrose, we found you are paying over 20% too much if you shop there! Costco is our wholesaler, so we still kill it value-wise and with the great Costco quality. If you currently spend $600 per month, then you can have $3600 – $7200 extra in your pocket at the end of the year….and countless relaxing days since you save all that time. (Better than a sharp stick in the eye!)
Q: Sounds like a scam … how do I know you’re legit?
A: Try ordering just one thing. Click “Pay at Pick-up” so there is no risk. Check on the Testimonials.
