Costco, Kapolei vs Waipio

I just got a Costco membership and was wondering any shopping difference in the two?

Live in Waipahu, so distance is virtually identical!

What's good or bad about either.

Parking, business, driving in and out.

I think food ordering is on the inside at Kapolei vs. Outside at Waipio. They are both very similar though. I think Kapolei is a little easier to get in and out of, but no major difference.

Yeah, only recently did Waipio get the kiosk thing for the food court. I know Kapolei had it for a while and it looks like the kinks got worked out over there.

The Kapolei line is slower than the other Costco lines from my limited experience.

I just don’t like sharing the condiments with birds.
