If you're hosting a big holiday gathering, Costco is truly the perfect spot to do all your shopping. You can pick up all the essentials for your Christmas dinner—ham, potatoes, prime rib, pies, and more—and then stroll over to the liquor aisle to buy bottles for big batch of punch. You can even walk around and find some gifts for your loved ones this year—because every Costco lover should have a Kirkland sweatshirt under the tree.
But if you forget to pick up any of those Christmas necessities and need to run out day of, will Costco be there for you? Here's what you need to know.
So, Is Costco open on Christmas Day?

What stores will be open on Christmas Day?

But hey, if you're reading this anytime before December 25, you still have time!
