In Texas, that's why its called 'concealed carry'...duhhhh

I'm carrying when I feel the need, and I'm shopping where I choose too, but if my shopping location is signed (no 'concealed carry'), I'm shopping at my own risk.

If you have a permit, there is nothing they can do about it anyway. If it is kept concealed, they never need to know...

I can go anywhere with a concealed weapon and if nobody sees it, they don't need to know.

Comes in handy when you are reaching for that last 100-pack of twinkies at the same time as someone else.

Actually, I see this as a rational decision made by a private business, and this guy made it seem more rational than it otherwise would have truly been. Funny thing is, what did he really accomplish? He walked around in Costco for an hour, waited in the checkout line, made a dubious point about private property rights (they have a right to say 'no guns' he has a right not to shop there), and then he had to shop again somewhere else.

You have the correct approach - keep it concealed, and nobody will know or care.
