I'm used to horrendous crowds at the cashier at other Costcos. What was your experience in this smaller store? Long wait?

Of course, everything is still the usual Costco mass quantities. I took the M15 bus and brought along my wheeled weekend bag to get everything home - the M15 downtown on Second Avenue is a few long blocks from the store, so wheels helped a lot. Worked out fine, although I had to be very careful not to overshop.
Good reminder.
