Whether it’s stocking up on bulk snacks for a weekend in the mountains, snagging a rotisserie chicken for an easy dinner, or simply wandering the aisles looking for a deal they didn’t know they needed, it's undeniable that there’s a certain thrill in making the trip.

But recently, something happened that has Costco members in Montana grinning from ear to ear.

It’s not a new Kirkland Signature product or a flash sale on camping gear. It’s something that’s been quietly introduced, and for those who have noticed, it’s been an absolute game-changer.

Montana’s Obsession With Costco Runs Deep, and They're Rewarding Us

It’s no secret that Montanans take their Costco membership seriously.

The parking lot is often packed, the checkout lines can stretch far beyond what seems reasonable, and yet, nobody really minds. Because at the end of the day, you leave Costco feeling like you got something worthwhile.

And for many, that “something worthwhile” also includes the gas station.

Oh Yes, The Costco Gas Line Struggle Is Real

If you’ve ever pulled up to a Costco gas station in Montana, you know the scene.

Cars lined up three, four, sometimes five deep, all patiently waiting for their turn at the pump.

And who can blame them? Costco’s gas prices are notoriously lower than most stations in town, sometimes by as much as 20 to 30 cents per gallon.

But with those savings comes one unavoidable frustration—timing.

For years, Montana Costco members had to carefully plan their fuel stops, knowing that gas station hours were limited.

More than a few drivers (including everyone here at the station) have pulled up to an empty station, only to groan in disappointment upon realizing it had already closed for the evening.

The Big Change at Costco That’s Making Everyone’s Life Easier

Now, those late-night and early-morning Costco gas station disappointments are a thing of the past.

Montana Costco locations—including Bozeman, Missoula, Kalispell, Billings, and Helena—have officially extended their gas station hours! That means members no longer have to rearrange their schedules or rush to fill up before the pumps shut down.

The new Costco gas station hours are now from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, Monday thru Friday—giving drivers more flexibility than ever before. Saturdays are 6:00 AM to 8:30 PM, and Sundays are 6:00 AM to 7:30 PM.

For commuters, road trippers, and anyone who hates waiting in long lines, this is the best kind of news.

Whether you're fueling up before a dawn fishing trip or squeezing in a fill-up after a long day, the new hours make it easier than ever to take advantage of Costco’s unbeatable gas prices.

Montanans were already loyal to Costco, but with this change, that loyalty just got even stronger.
