I don't normally go at opening, but I had a need this past Sunday. Took advantage of the hour and it was glorious.

I think I have gone once at opening in all these years but I think I might have to change up my normal OP for this

Don't get me wrong, there was still a line. I waited for the line to clear. It's fantastic once inside.

Ours opens at 9AM. I just go at 930. ZERO lines. Grab everything I need, leave the cart near the checkers and do any looking around before checking out and Im all finished before they let the littles in.

Definitely worthwhile to trail the early birds, but beat the throngs of plebes. This strategy applies to nearly every line, except ski lifts on powder days.

Going tonight around 7:30pm to grab their 3-pack of ribs. Love that they remove the membrane for you.

Haven’t made these in a while. 3 racks for my wife and me is a bit much.

Maybe one day around Thanksgiving when I’ll have a bunch of extra people.

One suggestion on their meat/seafood is getting the lobster tails and making lobster rolls. Lots of butter and brioche rolls and it was great. We ended up doing 4 tails for 3 people and it was way too much. For the tails, just pop the meat outside of shell after cutting it open with kitchen shears. Put any type of garlic butter plus whatever you like and it’s delicious.

1st time experiencing the early opening today. Kinda felt sorry for all those poor souls just waiting to get in as i was leaving. felt like the retail version of ezpass. Another observation, while I'll always long for the brief days where we had hand scanner capability, the pre-checkout they do now is not a terrible consolation prize. Finally, this was the first time using the newly expanded gas station (10 new pumps for a total of 22). I had to get out of my car to take it all in. I'll always resent not being able to pump my own gas in NJ, but this was a signifcant improvement compared to the gridlock of the old layout. A lot going on in my costco life on this beautiful fall day. Thanks for listening.
