After originally starting the special hours as a twice-weekly event for members 60 and up on Tuesdays and Thursdays, Costco quietly added Wednesdays as the third day.
In responding to comments on its Facebook page, Costco said only members meeting the criteria"will be allowed to enter the warehouse and guests will not be admitted.”
Starting March 30, Costco is temporarily cutting weekday hours and stores will close at 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and gas stations will close at 7 p.m. Costco’s website update on Saturday notes other changes such as a limited food court menu and new return restrictions. Warehouses are not accepting returns of toilet paper, bottled water, sanitizing wipes, paper towels, rice and disinfecting spray.Stores, gas stations as of March 30 will be open fewer hours because of coronavirus crisis
Acknowledging that older adults and persons with underlying health conditions are more susceptible to COVID-19, a growing number of stores have been dedicating time or opening earlier for senior shoppers and other at-risk groups. Because of panic shopping, which has left store shelves empty in many places across the country, at-risk groups including seniors have had difficulty getting supplies.
