Costo Allows Healthcare Workers, First Responders to Skip Lines

If you're a healthcare worker or first responder, you're now able to get into Costo quicker.

The retailer announced this week those working the front lines during this pandemic will be able to jump to the front of the line at their stores:

Costco is temporarily allowing priority access to our warehouses during all open hours for Costco members who are healthcare workers and first responders such as police officers, EMTs and firefighters. Healthcare workers and first responders who present a Costco membership card and official identification of their role, will be allowed to move to the front of any line to enter the warehouse.

Costo previously announced that to support the health and safety of employees and shoppers, they were adjusting hours, with stores closing weekdays at 6:30p.m.

They've also designated special shopping hours for members over 60 and those that have disabilities. Those hours are on Tuesday through Thursday from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m.
