Wow, what a mistake. Costco opening day is NOT the place to be. However it is open.

Of course the crowds are huge. There's a huge drawcard. FREE STUFF.

The free grated onion machine must have been working overtime.

Raw grated onions cover in ketchup and mustard mmmmmmm irresistable.

I got there two ways...

Bus 115 from Centum City

Bus 54 from Suyeon? The station where the brown and green line come together.

Bus 54 went right by it. Bus 115 goes withing a block or two.

Newer building. Perhaps slight differences in products sold. Designer goods depends on the location of the store.

This is exactly why fast food restaurants don't offer unlimited refills like in the US. People abuse anything that's free. Even if its some onions.
