I let my Costco membership expire this May.  However, I have still
have Sam's Club--must have at least one wholesale store card to get
oversized quantities! {chuckle}  The irony is that Costco and Sam's
Club are within a couple blocks of each other... Clearwater Mall (what
used to be a 'mall' and also has the Costco store) is within 2-3
minutes drive of where I work and they've got a Borders there.  Drive
another five minutes and you can reach a Barnes&Noble.  So, even if I
decide to speck out the 'midnight release', dunno which store to
choose.
