To all: Well, weather in Fla is great.haha. I have NEVER seen our local COSTCO so busy. They have expanded ALL HOURS and there are no special hours at the moment for businesses. I am retired and have tried going at 10:00am PACKED Midafternoon PACKED Evening PACKED once went on a weekend and OH MY GAWD. Saw TWO fistfights (both women) and was told they have bouncers now circulating the store to break up fights. Women get testy you know. haha. Meanwhile their gas business is phenomenal. No way to get to the pump without waiting in line unless you go before 7:30 am. (they open the gas at I believe 6:00am. Based upon what I am seeing I suspect the 12/31 qtr is going to be fantastic. Only negative I have heard is on CNBC today someone said COSTCO.COM basically sucks but that is because it is new. JDN
