Other customers at the retail giant were heard begging the man to “calm down” as he raced to another section of the crowded store.
It’s unclear what led to the outburst, but the angry man had milk and bananas in his grocery cart, as well as a dog on a leash by his side.
The clip was posted the day before Thanksgiving with the caption, “Thanksgiving shoppers are Wilding out there.”
Users on Reddit, where the video was originally posted, piled on their reactions to the man’s explosive behavior.

“I mean I feel that way when people block aisles but I could never act like that [for real],” one wrote.
“There’s nothing I want less than to be in a Costco near a holiday,” another added.
“People are already the worst there, I can’t imagine how awful they would be the day before Thanksgiving or Christmas.”
A third slammed, “I’d be so embarrassed if I knew that person.”
Other Reddit users called for the man’s Costco membership to be revoked.
“Cancel grumpy man’s membership and ban him for 5 years,” one suggested.
“I mean if Costco really wanted to they can find him and revoke his membership, but it wont happen,” another added.
“Shouldn’t his membership be revoked for getting physical and abusive with other shoppers?” a third asked.
Costco has the right to refuse or terminate membership – even without cause.
The retailer has recently come under fire for forcing members to scan their IDs when entering stores in a new crackdown.
Costco membership sharing guidelines
Costco has strict rules for membership use that shoppers must follow and they’ve been cracking down on offenders in recent years.
- Primary Member Use: Only the primary cardholder can use this Costco membership card. Sharing it for purchases is not allowed as the photo on the card must match the person using it.
- Household Card: Each primary member can add one free household cardholder who lives at the same address. This person will receive their own membership card and can shop at Costco independently.
- Guest Policy: Members can bring up to two guests per visit to Costco. However, only the member can make purchases. Guests must be accompanied by the member.
- Authorized Cardholder: For an additional fee, you can add an authorized cardholder, such as a family member or friend, who doesn’t reside at your address. They will receive their own card and can shop independently.
