Selgros anyone?

This evening my family went to a store like Sam's, which has just opened in Iasi. It's a German company called Selgros (no, it does not mean Sell gross). We stood outside in line for a long time until we found out that the card we need can only be received through a business or foundation. In other words, a ordinary person cannot just get a card and go inside. We were quite disappointed because it would have been the largest and cheapest supermarket in town for shopping. The other one is several miles outside town and we are carless. At least with Selgros we are able to ride the bus there and come home by taxi. We should be able to get a card through our association. We are expecting two more super stores to open very soon, so we are excited about that. These two will not require cards for entry.
