Second Northern Colorado Costco to Open in Less Than a Month

If you are a fan of Star Wars and a lover of the membership warehouse, Costco, the stars are aligning in your favor as Longmont's store will open on a perfect day.

According to the Longmont Times-Call, the Costco at 205 East Ken Pratt Boulevard will open on May 4. The new Costco will be a whopping 152,000-square-foot warehouse for shoppers to stock up on various goods. The Longmont Costco will have a bakery, deli, meat section, produce section, beer and wine, optical department, pharmacy, tire center, hearing aid center, and of course, a food court.

Personally, I have a love/hate relationship with Costco. I love Costco for the deals and certain things I can get at the warehouse store. At the same time, Costco is an anxiety-inducing store. Particularly the Timnath location. The hoards of people in one place with carts feels like sheer chaos to me. I am hoping that with the opening of Costco in Longmont, that feeling subsides at the Timnath location.

Longmont's Costco location will be the 15th warehouse store in the state of Colorado and will have approximately 220 employees. Have a Costco membership and live or work in Longmont? If you are in need of a take of gas, you can already stop by the new Costco gas station in Longmont as the gas station is already open and operational.
