What time does it begin?

Officially the doors open at 8, but I've heard be there no later than 7 because a line has formed by then. I plan on leaving Seattle by 5:30 because that's when I normally leave for work.

Criv: Anything on your wish list I should be looking for?

[5Toes]

I want.. err need a polisher.

ugh

It was nuts this morning. There was a guy who showed up at 2:30am to be first in line!! Lots of good deals on stuff though (most all of it was gone within 15 minutes of the doors opening. I got there around 6:45 and was about 30 people back in line.

Trip report:

I got there at 6:00 am and was #10 in line. Griots had coffee and donuts out by then and had the doors unlocked if you wanted to use the bathroom.

By 7:00 am there was about 50 in line and by 8:00 am the line was around the building with 150+

Waiting in the morning was like a car Woodstock.

So, like Henna30 said, by 8:15 it was mostly over. There were a few of the nice floor jacks that were gone immediately. Here's what I got:

100' industrial quality water hose. There was a pile but they were largely ignored. Retails for $99 and I got it for $30.

Griot's finest hose nozze. Expensive at $89 but they had a pile of them for $35. I got 2.

Griot's "nicest wash bucket you'll ever enjoy" . Expensive at $44.99 but they had a million of them for $10.. I got one.

Epoxy floor paint. Griots has a great supplier on this. They retail at $65 per gallon which is already a good price considering the quality. I got two gallons at $20 each and saved myself $90 on that item alone.
That's it.

They also had an entire pallet full of polishers. Lots of car covers. I also saw the portable air compressors, pneumatic hose reals, ionic water filters.
