7 Costco Products That Shoppers Call The Store’s Best-Kept Secrets
Costco has its share of products that have become iconic over the years including their rotisserie chicken, baby wipes and the famous $1.50 hot dog and soda combo, but there are other products that shoppers say are underrated. Here’s a list of 7 of Costco’s best-kept secret items you should know about.
- 100% Italian Extra Virgin Olive Oil – Kirkland Signature Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a favorite with shoppers. It sells for $25.99 for a 2 liter bottle and isn’t cheap but one shopper says “Most olive oil is saturated with cheap seed oils. If you taste Kirkland oil and let it hit the back of your throat, it will burn, as real olive oil does. This is a sign that Kirkland is the real deal.”
- Kirkland Plastic Wrap – Kirkland Signature Stretch-Tile Plastic Food Wrap is another product that gets rave reviews. One reviewer said “We’ve been using it for years. We got a new roll this past Aug. which replaced our previous roll which lasted for 26 months (!) and we use a lot of it for both microwaving and storing. The evidence is in…this stuff rocks.”
- Kirkland Signature Paper Towels – Kirkland Signature Paper Towels sell for $23.99 for a large package and shoppers love the quality and value. One shopper said “I love the Costco paper towels. One towel is usually all I need for most things I reach for it for, while the other brands, I need 3 or 4. The Kirkland paper towels are worth my membership to me haha.”
- Costco Contact Lenses – Costco contact lenses are a great deal according to shoppers. Comments include “I just ordered from Costco for the first time this year and they were significantly cheaper (almost $100) than me eye doctor or 1800 contacts” and “I was SHOCKED at how cheap my contacts were!”
- Kirkland Baby Formula – Kirkland Signature ProCare with Dual HMO’s, Non-GMO Infant Formula sells for $63.99 for two 42 ounce packs and is one of the best values at Costco according to customers. One Redditor said “It tastes better than Similac IMO – if you make a bottle ahead of time with Similac it seems to smell/taste off, but not so with Kirkland and the Kirkland is literally half the price.”
- Kirkland Eggs – Kirkland Eggs are popular with shoppers, especially during these times of egg shortages due to bird flu. One Redditor said “I think this is the one item that’s extremely cheaper than most supermarkets. $2.25 roughly compared to $4-6 elsewhere. Occasionally Safeway has eggs slightly cheaper when on sale, but you have a limit of one with coupon.”
- Jongga Kimchi Sliced Napa Cabbage – Jongga Kimchi Sliced Napa Cabbage sells for $14.29 for 88.1 ounces and is another best-kept secret according to Costco shoppers. One Redditor commented “Korean here. Yes, it is one of the best kimchi maker, I would say its best one.”

Anheuser-Busch Wants You to Call Their Beer "American" Not "Domestic"
If we're going with "Gulf of America," I guess there's no reason we wouldn't do this too: The CEO of Anheuser-Busch wants you to stop calling their beer a "domestic," and start calling it "American" beer instead.
Budweiser already uses the slogan "great American lager." But he wants stores and restaurants to stop using "domestic" for ANY beer made in the U.S.
He sent a memo to distributors, encouraging them to start using the term "American beer." Quote, "It's about time the whole industry begins to unilaterally use one of the strongest adjectives available to us: American." He said "domestic" should be reserved for "less glamorous" things.
He conceded that "domestic" is accurate too, but argued it doesn't fully capture the, quote, "spirit and passion that's intrinsic to the American beer industry."
Anheuser-Busch lost a ton of business to the Bud Light boycott in 2023. So winning those people back might have something to do with it.
