An interesting thing about the Costco is that it is multi-storied. The upper level has the electronics, clothes, and other products. Downstairs is all of the food.  The get to the downstairs, you take an escalator.  When you push the cart on the escalator, a magnet in the floor grips the cart so that it doesn't slide down the escalator.  Finally, above the store is another level for parking.
 
Other than that (and some of the products below) it was a pretty normal Costco.  They  had a lot of products there that you find in a regular Costco.
 
They also have food samples - the most interesting one was a lady who squeezed out ketchup onto a slice of bread.
