Could a warehouse retailer become the world's next trillion-dollar company? Costco's answer may surprise you.
Why investing for the long run, especially if you buy certain popular stocks, could reap huge rewards.
Costco sells gas so cheap it barely breaks even on it — and now it's building massive standalone gas stations with no store attached. That's not a loss leader. That's a billion-dollar subscription play hiding in plain sight at the pump.*Curious what other ways retail brands are getting ahead? We spotted five trends:* https://clickhubspot.com/tgkqWhile Kroger and every other grocery chain use fuel discounts as a backend loyalty perk you have to earn through gamified point schemes, Costco offers $0.20–$0.40 off per gallon, unconditionally, to anyone with a $65 membership card. For the average American driver, that discount alone pays for the membership fee by the end of the year. Which means the pump isn't a perk — it's the product. To handle the demand (up to 1 million gallons a month at a single location vs. 80K at a typical station), Costco completely redesigned the gas station: 40,000-gallon underground tanks, 18-foot retractable hoses, one-way traffic lanes, and mathematically optimized bypass corridors. The first standalone gas station in Mission Viejo, California isn't a weird experiment — it's the strategy made visible.0:00 Costco’s first standalone gas station1:13 How grocery stores gamify gas discounts2:14 Costco’s always‑on 20–40¢ gas discount2:47 How much the average driver actually saves3:16 Costco moves 10x the gas of a normal station3:46 Inside Costco’s blueprints: 40,000‑gallon tanks5:12 Turning the gas station into an assembly line6:27 Cutting wait times from 12 minutes to 67:03 Membership fees vs. profit: the Costco moat9:32 Standalone gas stations as loyalty centersGet the 5-minute newsletter keeping 2M+ innovators in the loop: https://thehustle.co/join-free-2
