I still can't figure why a pizza in AK cost more than a pizza in Washington/Idaho/Kentucky/etc etc. The only answer I get is "shipping charges". I guess Costco does not incur a shipping charge because there is no price difference. If I am going to be charged extra, at least the TV commercials for AK should show the actual prices. I sure as heck don't make anymore income here than I do in WA. Social security payments are the same each month no matter where I live.
