You can buy a box of those sets from Costco or bjs for only a few dollars, sell each at 2 a piece and there’s a profit

Do migrants tend to have a Costco or BJs membership?

they usually share them across different families or friends and pay for it together

Mainly based off my experience growing up as a migrant family in nyc and talking to other people along with their experiences. Everyone is different so I doubt my explanation fits the norm but it’s what I’ve seen the most growing up.

Costco made $6B last year. I think they’ll survive some poor people sharing memberships to go buy things there

Yea, because i really give a fuck migrants are sharing a Costco or BJs membership. Wait until you find out how many people i share my Crunchyroll account with, dork.
