Hot Dog Meal
Costco price: $1.50 apiece plus 20-ounce drink
You don’t need a Costco membership to cash in on this incredible deal at the food court. For just $1.50, you can fill up on a quarter-pound, all-beef hot dog and a 20-ounce drink (with unlimited refills).
This ultra-cheap meal is so popular, it’s reported the company sells roughly 100 million of them each year, which is four times more than what all Major League ballparks combined sell each season. The massive sales are precisely how the retail chain is able to keep prices on this meal so low — the cost hasn’t changed since the mid-1980s.

Bacon Bits
Costco price: 57 cents an ounce
Amazon price: 68 cents an ounce
Bacon bits are good for so many things: topping salads, spicing up omelets or just scooping right into your mouth (don’t judge). This is another convenient food that Costco sells for unbeatable prices.
The retailer’s giant 20-ounce bag of crumbled bacon bits costs 57 cents an ounce, compared to six 6-ounce bags of Hormel bacon bits from Amazon for 72 cents an ounce.

THEY ARE THE BEST CHICKEN I HAVE HAD. THANK YOU
THESE HOT DOGS ARE WONDERFUL… AND ALL THE CONDIMENTS TO PUT ON THEM.
I LOVE COSTCO HOT DOGS AND A DRINK TO GO WITH THEM.
We used to be members of Costco, but we are older now and do not need to always have such large amounts of an item. Wondering if you have a way we can shop at Costco now and then. By the way…we love your rotisserie chicken?
Hello.
Yes. Get a gift card. It allows you access without a membership
Hi Carol, if you know someone that has a card, give them money to buy you a Costco gift card and you can get in and buy that dollar amount with your gift card.
I hope that helps!
Pat

Not happy that the Polish Dogs left, don’t care for the Hot Dog.
I would love to come back to Costco. I have not renewed my card for a long time. I am 84 and live by myself and I don’t feel the cost of joining is worth it. I can’t use the large sizes, There are things I can use and feel the seniors 80 plus could have a break on the card cost.
