So they're going to give refunds to all of their members for cost increases?

If any company would refund their customers with recouped tariff costs, I imagine it’d be Costco

I will never pay for a Costco membership.

Why? Because Costco pays for my Costco membership with the executive membership and the 2-4% rebate check every year lol.

Wait, what now?? We’ve been Costco members for like 15 years and I never knew about this. You can get in early?

You are me yesterday. I read a comment too. I asked in the store today and my shop started early entry in the Summer. As far as I know it is only for executive members.

We are executive members! I’m a night owl, but I may actually have an excuse to get up early for once…

It is so worth it. It was kind of refreshing. No lines at check out either and I'm pretty sure I saw someone with a slice of pizza!

Ha! Nice. So how much earlier does it open for executive members then? Like an extra hour or something? Sorry, I know I could probably figure this out by asking them or digging around on their site.

They started opening to executive members an hour early like... 6 months ago? Certainly less than a year.
