Most countries don't rely on bulk buying groceries at warehouse stores like Costco. That'd be bizarre to most people outside America.

A lot of cultures you go up to the grocery store to buy what you need for what you're cooking that day. Not going once a month to fill a truckload of year long supplies.

Living in Germany now we go more frequently, but I do miss Costco for a lot of stuff. Costco is easily one of the best parts of American retail culture.
