Costco is piloting a pre-scan system that scans carts before checkout, cutting wait times by up to 20% at some Arizona warehouses.

While shopping for Christmas gifts at Costco this year, I found deals on stocking stuffers and name-brand items from brands like Touchland and Dyson.

Costco can get a little hectic when you got at peak hours. If you don't enjoy shopping bumper to bumper, these are the worst days and times to go.

If you’re not a Costco member, you can still find gift cards at your favorite local stores and restaurants to gift to friends and family. Alternatively, if you want to get the most convenient gift card option, go for a Visa prepaid gift card that can be shipped directly to your door (or to the recipient).

Recently, a Costco member took to Reddit to complain about the fact that the warehouse club giant does not do a good job of labeling its aisles. And that set off a lightbulb in members’ heads. Soon after, that thread was flooded with comments by Costco members who experienced the same frustration.

Costco says it will be implementing a new change for its Canadian warehouses in 2026. The retail giant extended its hours over the holidays, giving customers more time to shop during the busy season.
