I am happy to have a Redmond  Costco. I go to Woodinville every week to buy stuff for my wife's  business .  But the crowding makes for a big pain in my  neck! I am guessing  that the new store will be crowded  too, but the commute time should  be less for me, as I live near by  on Ed Hill. I also look forward  to buying  my  gasoline  at Costco  prices.  The Chevron is high priced for me.
