1. Costco shoppers with the Executive Membership have access to an hour of shopping in the morning without other customers. Starting September/01/2025 only those with the Executive Membership will be allowed in stores from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m. each day. The hour is slashed to a 30-minute window on Saturdays. The company defended its decision, saying: "Our Executive Members are our most loyal members, and we want to reward them for their commitment to Costco." Also, shoppers have been divided over the recent move by the wholesaler to transition from selling Pepsi to exclusively Coca-Cola products in their food courts. Do you shop at Costco?
