Default Does Costco have Boxing Day/Week sales?

Since I'm a new Costco member, I've never been in a Costco store for the Boxing Day shopping period... do they have Boxing Day sales? How do they compete with all the sales offered by their competitors? Any comments?

Good question - I don't believe they do but since they are now more coupon happy, this might change? Any costco employees here?

Yes... they are goign to have a Boxing Day sale... they usually mark down televisions and small appliances. I was there last night and the lady at the door handed me a flyer with no specifics other than to let us know that they were having a Boxing Day sale!

They have never had big Boxing Day deals, actually this is the first year that they have even been open on Boxing Day! Don't expect much, I noticed many of their Xmas stuff was already on sale yesterday. (HINT: All Costco prices ending in 7 are a clearance price)

From what I remember working at Costco last christmas.
Boxing day just had regular flyer on some electronics and home items, but that sale is not a special boxing day sale, that sale went on for the whole week. But it was a matter of getting it before it was all gone.

Oh yea I think I got double pay that day too

The bosses are all being super secretive about the boxing day coupons, they won't even tell us what they are. A co-worker managed to sneak a peek and said that there will be some good deals in the electronics department but he couldn't remember any specifics.
