I'll bet it gets pretty crowded when that Permanent Fund check thing gets sent out.
Someone told me that the people in the Bush and Native Villages make some pretty big orders at that time...and Costco gets pretty nuts.
I'm guessing that with your allergy to crowds...you don't go there during that period?
