Excitement Builds in Madison for Costco’s Grand Opening!

Hey there, Madison! Are you ready to mark your calendar for a shindig that’s sure to be the talk of the town? Get ready to roll out the red carpet because Costco is opening its doors this Friday, November 15! And trust us, you won’t want to miss it!

Where’s the New Costco?

The shiny new warehouse is popping up at 8094 Highway 72 West in the bustling Clift Farm area. This isn’t just any ordinary warehouse; it’s packed with all the goodies that Costco fans love! And guess what? It’s the second location for the Huntsville metro area, plus the fifth one statewide. It’s about time Madison got another Costco to join the party, don’t you think?

The Goodies Await!

This Costco isn’t just a haven for bulk shoppers; it’s a full-on experience! The new location will boast a food court (hello, pizza slice and hot dog combo!), a tire service center for anyone needing car care, a pharmacy to keep you stocked up on essentials, and an optical department to ensure your vision is crystal clear. Sounds like a one-stop shop, right?

Gas Up Before You Shop!

In case you didn’t know, the Costco gas station opened up last month in October specifically for Costco members. So if you’re a member, you can already start filling up on those out-of-this-world fuel savings! It’s a great way to kick things off before the main event this Friday!

Why the Excitement?

Huntsville has officially overtaken Birmingham to become the largest city in Alabama! With that kind of growth, a second Costco is just what the community needs to accommodate this bustling population. The $19 million investment in building permits is a clear indication of the focus on expansion and development in the area.

Traffic Changes Ahead!

With all the excitement surrounding the opening, traffic changes are in the works! Madison County officials already OK’d plans to widen Wall Triana Highway just north of Highway 72 to help manage the expected increase in traffic. Smart thinking, right? Safety first, and we want all Costco shoppers to get there smoothly and safely!

Mark Your Calendars!

The grand opening ceremony is all set for 8 a.m. on Friday! So wake up early, grab your coffee, and get ready for a day of shopping fun. After the grand opening, the regular store hours will be as follows:

• Monday – Friday: 10 a.m. – 8:30 p.m.
• Saturday: 9:30 a.m. – 9:00 p.m.
• Sunday: 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.
