Best crab legs, got fantastic births day cakes, fantastic meats, good fish, it's also the place that it's chic to shop at. You're sew more mercedes and lexuses in the parking lot, but COSTCO has simply executed poorly this year. I expect improvement, but I can't wait for it when b.J.'s stock beckons. I want to make it really clear, I vastly prefer going to COSTCO over going to a b.J.'s. It's not just my brge's, i've been to about half a dozen, and I prefer every one of my costcos, except one close to me, which i'm not going to mention. I don't want to hurt people's feelings. Hey, we're comparing stocks, not here's the deciding factors. This is because I love regional/national plays b.J.'s got 180 mostly in the northeast and southeast. COSTCO has 557 worldwide, they're more concentrated in the west and south. Retail stocks tend to run out of the room to run higher when the underlying companies. Walmart peaked when they were basically in every state. B.J.'s plans to ecaccelerate the store growth. COSTCO is opening 15 this years, but it's three times the size as b.J.'s. By the way, b.J. Hayes had always had a problem trying to site stores. They can add stores, because real estate is cheaper. That's not the case a year ago. But b.J.'s is a better company, b.J.'s trades at 12 times expected earns. COSTCO is rich. Again, because everybody loves the product. But the difference is not justified given the similar I told you b.J.'s has superior execution with store units. COSTCO in this game 2 for 4 is I think the valuations will reverse themselves and b.J. Will trade at a premium. Here's the bottom line. B.J.'s is a contender for discount king and definite li the best white house dlub stock, better than COSTCO, maybe not as a company, but certainly as a robert in california, robert. >> hey, a by boo-yah from carlsbad. >> holy cow, our first caller from carlsbad. >> caller: I used to live in about 25 years ago I noticed casey's convenience stores, and they've been growing by leaps and bounds.
