Four Things Costco In Augusta Sells That May Surprise You

We all love shopping at Costco, even if you have to have a membership. Here are Four Things Costco In Augusta Sells That May Surprise You! Our store in Augusta is on Cabela Drive. I never knew Costco sold these items,  but I'm not surprised. Well, maybe a little. Here they are!

Velvet Interior...Wait...What?

Your forever home. Yep, a casket. You can buy one like the Prime Rose Casket. It features a matching pillow and throw, pink velvet interior, and more. I don't think anyone who has used this has returned it because of comfort. It'll cost you around $1150.00. Let's go shopping! Maybe not.

I'm assuming the above is not an impulse buy.

Free Roaming Pigs

We continue with our list of Four things Costco Sells that may surprise you. Do you like ham? How about a ham that is aged over three years and acorn fed. Not a lot of variety in that diet. These pigs roam freely on 2 1/2 acres before they....uh....you know.

If you want a 100% Iberico Bellota Ham, you'll have to fork over $649.99.

Ham And Cheese Sandwich

What's ham without cheese? You already have the $650.00 ham; how about some $949.99 cheese to go with that? That price gets you a 72-pound wheel of cheese, and it includes shipping. Now I feel better for paying $950.00 for some cheese. Actually, it's a wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano cheese from Italy. Delizioso!

Good Boy!

If you want to make your pooch happy, buy them a La-Z-Boy sofa. Actually, a La-Z-Boy Pet Sofa so they can hang out and chill just like their mom and dad. It has washable cushions and a pillow.....a bone-shaped pillow, of course. Make Fido happy for only $219.99.

Hot Dogs

I love Costco and all of its great things. I never knew they sold just about everything, but now we know. I'm grateful for their $1.50 hot dog and food sampling stations around the store. I've bought glasses at Costco and have had excellent customer service every time I've shopped there.

See you at Costco soon!
