Costco members can't get their hands on this new item

There are certain products Costco is known for -- its famous baked goods, its delicious Kirkland snack mixes, and its famous $1.50 hot dog and soda combo.Costco's hot dog combo price hasn't changed since the meal deal was introduced decades ago. And there's a reason for that.Costco uses its hot dog meal as a way to attract new members and retain current members. And if you're thinking, "nobody's going to join Costco just for a cheap hot dog," you may be wrong. Fans are constantly talking up the hot dog meal as the greatest deal ever. As one Reddit user put it, "I mean they are just perfect. From the soft delicious bun. To the juicy 100% beef dog itself. I don't think I have ever had a better hotdog. Don't even get me started on the price. $1.50 for a massive hotdog and a drink is absolutely insane, and probably the best deal I will ever get."Another said, "I couldn't agree more. It's the perfect hotdog to bun ratio and there's still room for extra toppings. The bun is soft and fresh. And the hotdog is really tasty. Delicious taste at an amazing value!"Costco's latest offering is hot dog-inspiredGiven the popularity of Costco's hot dog combo, you'd think the company would've perhaps capitalized on it by now, whether in the form of Kirkland-flavored hot dog chips or hog dog-inspired seasoning.But the famous combo did inspire a new concoction recently -- a bottle of bourdon that flew off Costco's shelves before members could get their hands on it.Related: Costco tests checkout that could take under 10 secondsThe bottle, called I Got That Dog in Me, is a Rare Character Whiskey Co single-barrel bourbon.
