Costco Ipswich (Bundamba) is the next Brisbane Costco!

I am back again writing about Costco, now it is Costco Ipswich that has hit the headlines (or maybe Costco Bundamba to be correct).

Those that know me know I am a big fan of Costco and followed the first Brisbane Costco (North Lakes) through from construction to opening and beyond.

There has been speculation for a long time about the opening of the second Costco in the Brisbane area but none of the rumours have been as strong as this one.

So here’s what’s happened so far. (See below for Latest Costco Ipswich Update)

The second Brisbane Costco store had been thought to be going to a few places, namely Logan or Wacol for initial reports and I have been following those stories too.

But now out of the blue there is a new contender for the title and Costco seems to be back up to their old tricks again by not letting out much information at all.

There have been quite a few newspaper reports about the deal that has been done for Costco to open their second Costco store out by Ipswich.

Bundamba to be exact.

Liem Barber Shop for a haircut and beard trim in Ho Chi Minh City

I have been in Vietnam for about six weeks now and the time had come to find a barber shop in Ho Chi Minh City (Saigon) and Liem Barber Shop was the one that popped up and had good reviews.

If you type Barber Shop into Google Maps anywhere in the city, Liem Barber Shops pop up on the maps.

I settled on the shop just down the road from Ben Thanh Market as it was easier to catch the bus there and back.

The little man is coming with me for this adventure so we set off on the bus into the city.

After getting off the bus I fired up Google Maps and set off to find Liem Barber Shop.

I had read somewhere that many of their barber shops are in alley ways and narrow lanes.

This shop definitely was!

There are motor bikes parked all out the front and the first impression is, wow.

There certainly are a lot of barbers working in this shop and lots of people waiting.

It shouldn’t be a long wait at all with that many barbers cutting.
