It is usually pretty crowded here on weekends, especially right before the holidays or any big games. But they've got the most samples we've ever seen at any Costco on weekends. Its typically samples galore and you actually have no more room for lunch. Especially in the middle of the day (still talking about weekends). We get all our produce here mostly and it keeps well for a while (at least a week or more for fresh fruits/veggies) given that you refrigerate your food properly. We come here pretty much every other week, if not every week. They've always got coupon books for you at the doors too, just in case you forget yours at home. This is our favorite Costco by far... It has a huge kosher section (darn good kosher turkey) with lots of interesting things to try, never runs out of silk almond milk (some other costcos don't even carry it), and the smoked salmon and Santa Barbara salsa are the best! It's a great place to get good quality produce for a decent price, especially in the winter... Gas is always cheaper here too!
