Will Costco Online be Available?

You will be able to visit the company’s website to purchase items throughout the week. However, the deadlines for items expected to arrive on Christmas has passed, so you may want to pop in the store before Friday to get all of your gifts out of the way. If you are stuck on what to get someone, a gift card always makes a nice gift. Make it something that they like, like a gift card to their favorite restaurant or spa would be greatly appreciated as a way to treat themselves after the stress of the holiday season. If you’re not sure of their favorite store or restaurant, American Express, Visa and MasterCard prepaid cards are a great gift idea. The recipient can treat themselves wherever they like.

If you are wondering about a specific store’s hours of operation during Christmas week, call and ask about the hours. Some smaller stores and locally-owned retailers may be closed for more than one day. Other stores, like Costco will only close for Christmas Day. Plan out your shopping, and make sure you get their before the doors close. Happy shopping!
