the hotdog isn't as good as it used to be, but i can tolerate that, because it's still the fucking deal of a lifetime and WELL WORTH a buck fiddy.
and it's not like it's bad by any stretch.
they aren't using Bar S franks at least. 🤮

It's the best example of a "loss leader" and damned if it doesn't result in an extra $300 or so in booze and snacks.

hell yeah i will definitely go to costco just to buy that one 32oz package of smoked pulled pork from the cold/deli section and get a hotdog on my way out. the pulled pork is only fractionally more cost effective on a unit price / per pound basis, but i will drive thrice as far to buy it so i can get a hotdog and a drink on my way out XD

The hotdog and drink combo is also $1.50 in Canada, making the value >30% better.
True story.

Don't forget, they also sell their rotisserie chicken at a loss. If the prices on those jump too...

You can get cafeteria items, prescriptions, and optometry services without a membership, too, last time I checked. Just tell the greeter why you're there.
