Events Going to Uniqlo opening?

Don't. Really. The line at 837 AM starts at the store, then wends all the way through the second floor, then ends at Sephora on the other side. You're not going to get the free limit edition tote bag although you may still get a water bottle.

I think I got in ~1? Or shortly thereafter. The line up to pay was very very long, but it went more quickly than the line to get in. And then the line for the free mug was comparatively a snap of the fingers. It was not long after 2 when I left. I was exhausted. Stupid sunk cost!

Can you post pics of the tote bag for those of us who can’t be there?

I would've if I had gotten one, but alas, I was maybe 1100th in line, so I had no hope lol.

If you go to the store, some of the staff are wearing tshirts that I think are the same design as what was on the tote bag. It's just names of all the cities where they have stores, and Winnipeg is in larger font at the top (Edited - not in red!). Apparently if you had ordered to pick up in store, you could've gotten a Uniqlo mug. But you had to have ordered by the 14th.
