Sleep-deprived mom Genevieve is furious when her neighbor Brad eggs her car, claiming it’s blocking the view of his elaborate Halloween display. Exhausted from caring for her twins, she confronts Brad, who smugly defends his actions. Rather than escalate the conflict, Genevieve plots her revenge, knowing Brad’s pride is his weakness.
A day later, she suggests he upgrade his decorations with high-tech items that she knows are terrible. Halloween night arrives, and Brad’s display impresses at first, but soon his fog machine malfunctions, spraying water instead of mist, and his ghost projector fails, leaving kids laughing.
As chaos unfolds, Brad’s decorations collapse, and some teenagers even egg his house. The next morning, Brad knocks on Genevieve’s door to apologize, looking defeated. She accepts his apology but reminds him of the need for balance. He leaves, speechless, as Genevieve feels victorious.
Costco Customers in Turmoil Over Retailer’s Controversial New Policy, Outcry Erupts
The big box retailer’s efforts to cut down on customers trying to shop with other peopIe’s membership cards is not being well-received.
Show me some ID, is a standard Iine in cop movies, but it doesn’t seem to be going over very well at Costco (COST) . The warehouse club has been cracking down on people who have been trying to shop with other people’s membership cards. Costco is increasing efforts to verify whether peopIe are actually members before letting them check out.
We don’t feel it’s right that non-members receive the same benefits and pricing as our members, the company said in a statement last month. Costco is able to keep our prices as Iow as possible because our membership fees help offset our operational expenses, making our membership fee and structure important to us.
Costco makes most of its profits from selling memberships, not from selling goods. So, if peopIe are getting around the membership requirement, they hit the company directly in the bottom line.
