When did Costco have lines outside? I’ve been to several Costco’s during the pandemic and never waited at a single one. The worst that happened was toilet paper being out.

It impressed me why people still think that their anecdata somehow applies to the world. Your personal experience has nothing to do with the experience of the previous shopper and there is no reason why you should doubt them for such a mondane thing. Or you could just use Google and reads the dozens of results. Someone even came up with an app in Toronto to track COVID lines at Costco https://www.blogto.com/eat_drink/2020/04/costco-stores-toron...

Costco operates in a dozen countries.

Is this supposed to a be rhetorical question or are you genuinely unable to use Google to discover simple facts?

If the two choices are "costco serves me" and "costco is worldwide", the latter is much closer to the truth.
