Costco allows reviews on its website

Did you know that Costco now allows customer reviews on items on its website? Similar to Amazon and other retail websites, you can now post a review of a Costco item.

I find other user reviews very helpful when comparison shopping. I really like amazon, b/c they usually have a good solid number of reviews over a longer period of time. You have to take everything with a grain of salt; there can also be "fake" reviews posted by people who want to promote a certain product. But suffice it to say, if an item has 100+ reviews and 90% of them are positive, it's probably a good product. That's the power of the online community.

Since Costco has just started, the reviews probably won't be as useful, but feel free to go and add your opinion of products that you like! We're in the market for a stroller, so I surfed around and found a review of this >Go-Go Babyz Urban Advantage stroller. Go check out this new feature!
