Why Pace Membership Warehouse might be annoying:

You used a membership card to shop there like it's some kind of secret society.
Butchers cutting meat were in plain view of vegetarians, which is totally not cool.
Who needs ten gallons of freaking mayonnaise, anyway?
You spent thousands of dollars for a flat screen TV when they are handing out free sausage on a stick ten feet away.
Your receipt was checked by some old dude before you leave the store.
They do not provide grocery bags.

Why Pace Membership Warehouse might not be annoying:

You know you loved their awesome discount prices and buying in bulk!
You could have bought a digital camera, a huge bag of Doritos and elegant jewelry all in the same place!
They had a very lenient return policy, so if you are not happy with your ten gallons of freaking mayonnaise, you can return it without any problems.
They offered a lot of cash back and rebate incentives, so it paid to shop there.
