Costco

[postie]

Cashier at Walmart told us that Costco is building near the airport. Can anyone confirm?

Rumor is they are looking for a bigger location, no idea where that location maybe.

[Bsuds]

This Rumor has been going around almost as long as the IKEA coming to Kelowna one.

We have relatives who work at Costco and they know nothing! (that's normal for them)

Ummmm, by the Vernon Airport? Or is this in the wrong forum?

[Bsuds]

Good point, I didn't notice this is in the North Okanagan threads.

Where is the OP talking about?

[spooker]

The rumours I've heard have them moving out near the Kelowna Airport so they can add a gas bar ... lots of good reason for it but I hope they get the Rail Trail finished out to there if so ... would like to continue having a safe cycle route to it (currently using Rails w/ Trails, down Dilworth, out Baron) ...

that's the rumour from last year KELOWNA airport not Vernon;; the area that I was told about theres been a lot of excavating and surveying and all that stuff there since early spring 2017 ;; its large site so I believe that's where costco,s moving to

That rumour has been around forever. There was also a rumour costco owned land in vernon near rona or superstore.
It makes sense to build by kelowna airport and add gasbar but I'll believe it when I see it.

Its not a rumour. The land is next to where the IKEA is going which is across the street from planned Olive Garden and Red Lobster

So this thread needs to be moved to either Laugh in or the Conspiracy sections?

Ha ha good one but I'd really like a red lobster. Is there even one in BC anywhere?

I was in the Toronto one a couple of times years ago with my kids. It was horrible, low end, grossly done seafood dishes......but YMMV.

I could think of a few more, but yes all that too.

Yes they are looking to build an new store with a gas bar. The location is across from the Kelowna Airport in the Pier Mac site. The city of Kelowna is giving them an extremely difficult time in making this happen. I have this on good authority, i.e its not a rumour.
