Original Story:

It's been the rumor we have all heard for years but we finally have some confirmation. Yesterday the rumors were swirling again about Costco coming to Tyler, Texas which most people are very excited about. But it was just weeks ago those same rumors were flying around so I called another Costco store and their manager said she could not confirm nor deny that a store was coming to Tyler. But we now have details from a real estate company trying to lease property around Costco that the store is coming to Tyler, Texas!

The details continued to be spread on a local East Texas social media group as some of the management at stores currently in the Cumberland Shopping Center were informed that zoning has now been approved for Costco to go across the street. It seems like the rumors were flying around so long it was never going to happen, but it's finally all coming together.
