Comment on Do all American stores have greeters?

This would be good on !AskUSA@discuss.online if you want to get Americans to answer this question. From my experience, I hadn’t seen American stores with greeters that much, with some exceptions (one of them being Costco).

At Costco, they’re less “greeters” and more “people who check your membership card”. Actually, since Costco switched to automatic card scanners, they’re “people who watch to make sure you scan your card and the machine makes the happy beep”.
That said, at least at my local Costco, they also smile and welcome you into the store – it’s just not their primary function.
