I have only been to the new Winco a few times and only to the bulk section
once. Due to the layout of the store, the bulk section seems rather closed
off. At the Everett store there is plenty of room and you can easily get in
and out of that section. But at the new one, the aisles have been teeming
with people and if you do dare to go in there, you can't get out very
easily. Will try to look next time I am there.
