With the holiday season fast approaching, many shoppers are gearing up for last-minute purchases, and Costco Mexico is adjusting its hours to accommodate the seasonal rush. Specifically, the store’s hours on December 31, 2024, will see some changes, allowing members to get their shopping done before the New Year celebrations.
On New Year’s Eve, all Costco locations across Mexico will operate on special hours, opening from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. This adjustment is made to provide employees the opportunity to celebrate the festivities with their families. Customers are encouraged to plan their visits accordingly to take full advantage of the reduced hours.
For regular visits, Costco's standard hours are as follows:
- Monday to Friday: 10:00 AM to 8:30 PM
- Saturday: 9:30 AM to 9:00 PM
- Sunday: 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM
It is important to note, during the holiday season, there will be closures on December 25, 2024, and January 1, 2025. Therefore, shoppers need to plan their purchases wisely as these closures present limited opportunities for shopping right after Christmas.
For those planning to visit Costco on December 31, 2024, here are some tips to maximize your shopping experience:
- Arrive Early: Due to the reduced operating hours, expect increased customer traffic throughout the day.
- Check Your Shopping List: Make sure to have everything you need organized to avoid last-minute rushes.
- Product Availability: Utilize Costco's store locator to confirm the availability of items on your list.
- Branch Hours: Though standard special hours are provided, some branches might have slight variations.
Below is the complete overview of Costco's holiday hours for December:
- December 24, 2024: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
- December 25, 2024: Stores Closed
- December 31, 2024: 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM
- January 1, 2025: Stores Closed
These adjusted hours for December 31 aim to facilitate organized shopping before the celebration. Remember, December 25 and January 1 will see all stores closed.
Meanwhile, preparations are also underway for Christmas Eve. On December 24, the stores will operate from 8:30 AM to 5:00 PM, giving customers time to shop for their holiday需要 before gathering with family. All branches will be closed on Christmas Day, December 25.
For those needing to fill their vehicles before the holiday festivities, Costco gas stations will also adjust their hours. On December 24, gas stations will be open from 7:00 AM until 6:00 PM but will remain closed on Christmas Day.
While the Christmas shopping rush is expected, past experiences showed long lines and crowded stores leading up to the holiday. Shoppers flocking to Costco often encounter busy queues and heavy traffic around locations, particularly photocapturing videos documenting the congestion.
All good shoppers should keep these factors in mind as the holiday season approaches for effective planning and completion of their festive preparations. Post-Christmas activities at Costco will resume regularly from December 26, maintaining standard hours.
So, as you plan for the holidays, make sure to adjust accordingly to these special hours and tips to enjoy shopping at Costco Mexico!
