as advantages for costco.ly costco does sell more than food, it has gas, travel discounts and more so that's also part of the calls for why there's some of this that is not going to be hurt by what happens with this amazon/whole food. >> i'm a member of both. i ordered a patio set from costco and a file cabinet. >> i don't think there's that much overlap between whole foods and costco i don't buy that whole foods, you know, i think it's apples and oranges because of the price consciousness of the shoppers at costco you don't have the same price consciousness at whole foods >> exactly. >> yeah. >> i think you can both be right. i think, bill, you're right, because we are -- if you're a costco shopper you are sensitive to price you like buying in bulk and the lower per unit costs however, we know the demographic studies show it's a higher income shop their shops at costco which means that shopper could afford the prices that whole foods is currently listing, so i think this all becomes is it a winner take all? c

everybody b's been all over this costco story this is going to hurt them i disagree have i bought costco yet in because i think there's enough pleasure. >> you're still long the expreerns that draws people into the store. >> i think partenkirchen of it the other part, the private label. >> going out on saturday why is that? they offer gasoline at a cheaper price. that's one more excuse and then people go into the store the membership idea is well. >> it's a different client for the most part. and both buy iing and that's why it seems like some of these big box types, the home depots of the world have more. >> you can both buy on amazon prime. >> you can, but do you want to >> yeah. so i don't have to slep it around inside a cart in a warehouse. >> it's a very different thing that's where you get inpyspired i have say to myself, stay focused. only game in here for duct tape. >> let's be clear. >> what are you doing with duct tape >> can i say something else, too, about the xrt you look at this on a relative value perspective. from the lows of 2009 to the s&p, the xrt outperformed the s&p

when you look at costco, you see, they've got scale, clearly.nuity and the gas is always so much more inexpensive high do that i do that they do it to draw people in their traffic numbers the last couple of quarters continue to grow not shrink they've been growing there's a lot of reasons when you look at this and just say, it's an easy call by an analyst just to say, costco's all done >> if you are in costco and worried about amazon being an entrant into the food -- they were already in the food space >> amazon fresh is ten years old. >> they bought it for distribution >> or should it? >> i think much more disruptive to costco is a company like boxed, which is really trying to hit them square on with exactly what they're doing there are internet start-ups that are trying to hit costco, but i don't think that the whole foods deal materially changes how people should -- >> a lot of people don't know this, but the whole idea for amazon prime came about as a result of a conversation between jeff bezos and jim sinagos of costco once people are a mem

down 14 that's a very tough call because costco has -- costco has levers, they have weapons. how to compete okay, those who are thinking you know, wait a second, they're going to wave the red flag are you kidding me they know how to play the game costco will be in there tooth and nail as they are with toilet paper and paper towels you're not going to see galanty lay down but the other guys, kroger, crisis in cincinnati crisis crisis. >> if you're blue apron, do you pull this ipo? >> blue -- there's some banker saying we'll have a bad quarter. get that deal done. >> yeah. >> it's just -- i mean, i look at this. i just think that the disruption that happened this morning, i mean, you know, we have to think -- this is june 16th, the day that's going to live in infamy for an industry look at this this headline, amazon to acquire whole food seattle and austin, holy cow, look at this supervalu down -- did someone think that was a call option for what, for what >> it's going to be interesting to watch how amazon treats a big piece of a new diet like this. >> yes. >> they appear to s

at costco?s on hyatt and best western rooms only so at the hyatt in san francisco, costco was $27 cheaper per night. that's 10% less than the four travel aggregator sites we checked and 10% cheaper then booking directly with the hotel. bjs is a little different. they listed the same rate as the travel site but threw in a bjs gift card. that amounted to about a 5% price reduction off the travel sites. >> if you check the fine print you might find that the packages sold to big box stores come with lots of free bonuses. >> reporter: bjs did come out cheapest on car rentals. 17% less than the travel aggregators while costco was 13% cheaper than the travel sites but you can also save when you build a trip with car, hotel and flights. on a trip to maui including airfare, car and a specific hotel, costco was 4% cheaper than the travel sites we checked saving a total of $282. on the same exact package, bjs was 3% cheaper than the travel sites saving us $186. again, in the form of a gift card rebate. but

a lot of prime sub, not everyone is a costco.l like there's seg menation >> the deflation has hurt them so much. here's the deal. knocked down a little bit. amazon doesn't feel -- it's not like -- you brick it, it doesn't plead. poison it, it doesn't die. >> could you recommend buying cvs today if you're looking at other areas? >> yes >> why >> i don't like that managed care, but i chartabitable trust owns -- here's one this is kind of like giving right now, i'm giving the skins the bootleg for cousins. brian corn el right now, pick up your phone, brian, list ben to e he's got to call kroger and say i'm giving you the food area i gave cvs the pharmacy, you have the food. let's go beat them let's get together let's join them. can a kid from white stone do that i think he knows how to play >> what about a topping bid? and the possibly for that. >> who can compete walmart maybe! who wants to if it's so complimentary to what amazon has by the way, do you want to grab that because i want to put in a good word. my executive producer is

store, went into a costco store on a weekend at home in oregon, and there were these big bags of hemp hearts and it said "healthy, good for the blood pressure. fiber, everything that one would expect in pennsylvania or oregon." i know the president of the senate is one of the most physically fit members of the body. i see him in the gym all the time, so he obviously cares a lot about nutrition. and so nancy and i are walking through this costco, and it says this giant bag of hemp hearts could be purchased here. and you say to yourself, let me see if i get this straight. the hemp comes from canada, so the farmers must just be laughing all the way to the bank because they're making money, and i guess what we knew is we'd put it in bags and it's sold in costco, which led me to the really intellectual concept of saying that if you can sell it at a costco in oregon, why can't our farmers grow it? not much more complicated than that. when you're shopping for a hemp product, it's not just poe day sew sacks and -- potato sacks and rough fabric by the yard. there's clothing, lotion, food, hemp

they took the costco model, which costco works in low margins and work on the membership.he prime membership and you've taken costco on-line and added the ability to go into a store and get those things cheap. it will go through capital as well. >> jeff. >> not only that, the trend now is organic food. organic fooed is the trend and now that amazon is going into organic foods, what we're going to continue to see. one complaint people have about organic food, cost. it's much more expensive. this might lower the cost of the organic food and the fastest growing part of food is organic. stuart: as we speak, the market clearly believes that amazon's move to take over whole foods is a good move, a solid move and winning move. that's why amazon is close to $1,000 a share again. it's got a 3% gain. whole foods, by the way, that's been halted. the stock trade-- no stock trading until 950 we understand and at that point whole foods will be looking at the stock price may be reflecting the $42 per share which amazon is offering. and last trade we saw was 32. i expect that to go up at

i don't care if you're kroger or walmart or costco or supervalue, this purchase, it changes everything that's because amazon which struggled with food, mightily, has found the trojan horse in the supermarket industry and it's achilles heel all at once it's averitable homer or home run, judging by the way amazon stock rallied today. i do not think people realize how big this is. amazon's like a modern mechanized army, rolling over the opposition, just like tanks rolled over the trenches in world war 12 in one fell swoop, it will do to the supermarket industry what has already done to the mall how do you compete against a nonunionized company that knows exactly what its customers want. a company that can afford to give away eggs or milk to amazon prime members without worrying about the bottom line? i think that's exactly what's happening now. i know whole foods has just a little more than 400 stores across the country but that's just what it looks like now whole foods got sidetracked that did the format it thought -- anyone in grocery was crushed by this today and that makes sense, at l
