Costco Wholesale is testing new membership scanners at the entrances of its stores across Canada, including Edmonton.
The new scanners, which require shoppers to scan their membership cards before entering, are also being trialed in Ottawa, Regina, and British Columbia.
Guests must be accompanied by a valid member to gain entry. While there has been no official confirmation on which stores in Edmonton will implement the new system, online discussions have frequently mentioned the Costco location on 149th Street and Yellowhead Trail.
