"SCP-945(random number for the joke): Bottomless Costco
Classification: Safe
Description: Found in the small town of [REDACTED], SCP-945 looks to be a normal “Costco Wholesale,” store, but given the dissapearance of [REDACTED] Residents, it was discovered that the shopping carts of SCP-945, despite looking normal, upon an individual depositing one American Quarter into SCP-945-A and taking a Cart out, they become unresponsive to external stimuli, and mutter what appears to be [REDACTED] before bolting into SCP-945-B with one of SCP-945-A’s Carts, never to leave. It is uncertain if SCP-945-B is a pocket dimension, but tests of SCP-945-B carts have determined that they can hold seemingly infinite items, as no matter how much is added, more room is created. It is therefore surmised SCP-945-B operates on similar logic. Further tests are needed, and the town of [REDACTED] has been scrubbed and locked down to prevent access to SCP-945-A."
Wait, do European Costcos have coin unlock carts? The only major store in the US that does that is Aldi, and they just brought their cart culture from Germany, whereas I’d kinda expect Costco to bring their cart culture (and their Costco-sized carts) to other countries. (Weirdly I’m pretty sure Trader Joe’s, owned by Other Aldi, doesn’t have coin carts.)

I’m somewhat surprised that we don’t have a Costco SCP given the cult status and kinda weirdness of their stores. The IKEA one was fun.
