“This temporary change is for your safety and the safety of our employees and other members, and to further assist with our social distancing efforts,” Costco said on its website.
The warehouse chain previously implemented other changes, including new weekday closing hours and special hours for members 60 and older.
Food court menus have also been scaled back. Food samples have been eliminated and purchase limits for in-demand products have been set.
