bulbs from Costco

Last week at Costco (a big-box, warehouse type store that requires
membership if you shop there) I noticed large bags of bulbs. Yellow "King
Alfred" daffodils at 100 for $14.99, bags of tulips, hyacinths - nothing
uncommon, just "the usual suspects."

My question - all these discount places, Home Depot, Wal-Mart, etc - seem
able to have spring flowering, fall planted bulbs available for sale way
earlier than mail order vendors can ship. How come?
