I went to Costco this morning for the first time since this all started.
I purposely did not go on senior day.
I got there about an hour after opening, also on purpose.
No lines to get in, no long line at checkout.
It was pretty busy, but not like a pre-pandemic busy. It was a little hard to maintain 6’ at all times because of the width of some of the aisle, but mostly just a quick pass by someone if not 6’.
I wore my real mask, that thankfully has a valve so my glasses aren’t fogged, but it really irritates my face and I could hardly wait to get it off, once I was in the car.
Gas was $1.39, so I filled up. It is around $1.78 elsewhere.
I got most of what I wanted and I scored some on sale Easter Candy, so that was a nice surprise.
I wanted to get some plants, but most of them looked kind of sad, like they needed to be watered, so I passed on those.
I usually love poking around Costco, but this trip wasn’t really fun, for obvious reasons and the mask was very uncomfortable.
The number of people wearing masks was about 50/50, but this store is in an area where I am not sure they still believe this is a serious thing, so there is that.
