Costco launched new opening hours June 30 with an extra hour in the morning for executive members and an extra hour on Saturday evenings for all members.
Members got a heads-up in a June 11 email: the retail warehouse giant will open at 9 a.m. exclusively for its upper-tier members, an hour earlier than for everyone else.
The company also said its warehouses will remain open an extra hour on Saturdays for all members, closing at 7 p.m. instead of 6, starting on July 5.
That’s not the only new benefit that the $130 membership tier will receive. Costco revealed that executive members will receive a monthly $10 credit for orders of $150 placed through the company’s “Same-Day” service or Instacart.
The company also recently expanded its gas station hours for all members to 6 a.m. Monday through Friday, 6 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Saturdays and 6 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. Sundays. The move led to record fuel sales, Fox Business reported.
Here are the new shopping hours at Costco Warehouses for Executive Members.
What are Costco’s new hours?
Just for executive members, as of June 30, Costco locations will be open:
Costco executive membership benefits
Membership is required to shop at Costo warehouses, and there are two levels.
Business memberships are also available for the same prices, with the option of allowing buyers to purchase for resale and add additional people to the account for $65 each.
Memberships are not required to buy Costco Pharmacy prescriptions online or in-store; non-members can get eye exams but can’t buy glasses or contacts.
Anyone can shop at costco.com, but there is a 5% surcharge for non-members and some items are limited to members only. You can also shop with a Shop Card, a prepaid Costco gift card which must be purchased by a member.
Are any new Costcos coming to Florida?
Costco is opening at least nine new stores across the country in 2025. One of them opened in Stuart in April to about 1,000 people waiting outside.
However, more locations are also coming to The Villages and Sanford, and talks are in the works for more potential spots, including Port St. Lucie, Pensacola and Miami.
