Costco closes on occasion, despite potential backlash. Because Costco members pay a fee to get into the store, they expect those warehouse clubs to be open most days of the year.

Cardholders of Costco’s priciest “Executive Member” plan, which costs $130 per year, can now exclusively enter warehouses beginning at 9 am through 10 am Sunday through Friday. On Saturdays, the time slot is from 9 am to 9:30 am. All other members can enter at 10 am Sunday through Friday and at 9:30 am on Saturdays.
