Costco

If you walk into Costco and say "I'm here to buy wine" or "I'm here for prescription meds at the pharmacy", you do not need a membership card.

However, if you try to buy other items (toilet paper?) at checkout, they will demand membership card.

That is pretty useless if you plan to buy something. My friend tried the alcohol trick one time and they actually had an associate following him. It is Costco policy.

If you have costco gift cards, you can shop w/o membership.

Costco wine selection/prices up here is excellent. I would stay away from the meat after the recent oxygenization scandal.
