Costco Crazyness



This morning was the opening of a new Costco (formerly of Price Club fame) in Kanata, Ottawa. The opening was at 8am and Thomas and I, never having been to an opening of any sort of store before, decided to venture out and see what it was about.

Hoping for free stuff and not many people, we arrived at a little past 8am and were completely blown away. There was a line of cars going into the parking lot and thousands of people already there!!! there were police officers manning the doors and once inside you could hardly even move. it was insane.

we wandered for around an hour, gathered a little bit of free samples and a Kiss FM mug and then decided to head out. As we walked back to the car, with a van following us for our spot, we realized that the huge parking lot was actually full. amazing.

who knew that so many people would be there?
not me i tell you.
not me.
