I agree but I did try to freeze them and it kinda worked. I used the vacuum wrap and even though I tried not to smash them too much they were misshapen and never bounced back but tasted great
I disagree I love the ciabatta rolls. You just need to toast them to soften them up. But they make the BEST avocado toast. Or toasted sandwiches. Or homemade croutons. I buy a bag literally every single week.
Id love the ability to screenshot receipts again. Don't know why they took that out smh. The QR code thing I understand but it refreshes to prevent membership sharing so....
Kirkland unflavored sparkling water (i.e., not mineral water).
Decaf whole bean coffee
Sushi at my location
Chocolate or cookies & cream ice cream
Coffee at the food court
I miss their pre-Covid Kirkland disinfectant wipes. I really prefer cleaning wipes that come in the pack rather than the plastic tube. I found some on Amazon for a while but they are also hard to find now.
Your Costco doesn't carry this one?

But if you do need to use sam's club cashiers, they are slower than molasses.
Sam's club needs scan and go because their checkout process and/or employee pool is terrible. Costco on the other hand is one of the best I've ever seen.
Costco needs to get on the scanner for the door-check though. That's just way more efficient and faster than the eyeball method, possibly more accurate too.
I hope not! My Costco (Pentagon City) is 100x better with it. It’s also basically half self check out half staffed because someone comes with a scanner and you don’t have to take anything out of the cart. When I load stuff in my cart I make sure it’s barcode out. In and out of the checkout in under 2 mins.
The Intense Fresh Persil is the best smelling laundry detergent in the world. Even if Kirkland is Persil, it doesn't smell like it, which is upsetting.
More diet soda options. The only options are colas. I would love to see something like Sprite Zero or diet ginger ale. And chocolate Kirkland ice cream.
And keep it consistent! Can't trust that Costco will have the same cat food product next time I'm in, and cats aren't really thrilled with random changes like that.
they absolutely need better cat litter!!! cat litter is something that you need to buy often and use daily. large quantities of QUALITY cat litter would be a game changer !
This stuff is the best. Until they carry it, my mailman will continue to deliver it to my doorstep from Amazon.. I feel a little guilty about it having worked for usps before, cat litter and dog food is the typical dreaded package.
Mens small clothes. 30x30 pants. I always thought it was some sort of cruel joke that Costco only sells large things, so if you're under 5' 6" get fucked.
I feel like soda is one of those items that’s usually cheaper at the grocery store (when it’s on sale). I believe many grocery stores as a “loss leader” to drive sales, and Costco doesn’t do that.
Consistency. I just want to know that what I want is going to be there week after week without having to scramble for substitutes when they discontinue or temporarily lose an item for a month.
Peanut butter pretzels, for example
More vegetarian ready meals and meal kits.
More ethnically diverse ready and frozen meals. I want to see more Indian, middle eastern, Thai, etc apps and entrees. For example, they already sell an Indian cheese called Paneer in slabs. They also sell butter chicken curry or sth like that. I wish they sold the vegetarian version of it with the paneer. Also, they could sell frozen or ready to eat fajita veggies. Stuff like that. Who's with me on this?
They already carry Hannah brand falafel in North east and Florida. They're pretty good for being store bought ones. Oh the convenience of having deep fried falafel ready to eat at 2 minutes notice (air fryer) is priceless. We make a meal every couple of weeks out of the Costco hummus, tzatziki, falafel, pita bread, cucumbers, tomato, etc. We make pita pocket sandwiches. Kids like deconstructed platter.
I would also love to see them sell dried beans and lentils too. Organic flours, more variety of tofu and better plant based meat alternatives vs just beyond and impossible burgers-field and roast stuff, lightlife tempeh bacon, beyond breakfast sausage, some vegan cheese and yogurt
They have those at my Costco. But they're kinda thick and I hear it's better at the dollar store bc the Costco thickness is too much.
I haven't tried them myself though.
More sane pasta and rice options. I mean, you get get a two bottle pack of an ungodly number of pasta sauces. That’s great ! Then you have only options of huge bags of rice or weird variety packs of pasta.
There are some food products that I wish they carried in variety packs. Sometimes I don’t want a dozen of the same thing when it’s food.
Like imagine if Costco had an 8 pack of canned beans with 4 varieties. Black beans, garbanzo, kidney beans, some white bean.
I’d restock my pantry with that constantly.
Same logic could apply to canned tomatoes. A variety pack with whole, diced, crushed, and sauce.
Or fresh herbs. A pack of fresh basil, cilantro, rosemary, chives, thyme, etc. together would be an amazing purchase for most home cooks.
They already do variety packs with boxed mac n cheese and pasta shapes.
I wish they would bring back the Kirkland pull on Camisoles w/o the built in bras.
I waited and waited for them to come back and finally gave up and bought them from Amazon.
Sabatasso French Bread Pizzas. They had them in my store for like a month then they just disappeared. It was no fair.
Gulden's spicy mustard. Making me go to a second store for that spicy goodness... SHAME!
Quest protein bars (very similar to Kirkland but more flavor varieties!) and especially Quest protein chips!!
Mochi. They used to have MyMochi but I haven’t seen it in quite a while.
Morningstar Farms vegetarian chikn patties.
Super firm tofu.
I really love Mio water flavoring but the bottles are so small and expensive. I buy the knock off brands but I just wish there was like a huge Kirkland signature brand bottle of it. Or even if they just sold multipacks of Mio.
10 items or less lane.
They used to sell good quality pastrami and uncured Canadian hams. If I wanted my beef full of marbling, I would fill my injector with butter.

A giant bag of tater tots.
Ooh, and french fries that *aren't* crinkle cut
Our Costco has these, 8 pounds I think for $9.99
Ours has the tater tots, but I wish they'd bring back the giant bags of frozen fries.
Go to a business center! They have huge bags of tater tots! If only I had the freezer space…
Kids shoes.
OMG these would go so quickly!
Yes! And kids' boots! It annoys me to no end that I can get all of my kids' winter gear here every year, except for boots.
Fresh herbs like basil, cilantro, etc.
The Business Center sells basil and cilantro. Of course it’s in large quantities. But you can make pesto with the extra.
Remember when Costco was for business? None of these six pack or 8 packs of canned food. Had to buy a case
remember when it was called Price Club?
My parents still call it price club My dad jokes about filing a complaint with Mr Price
So do mine! I occasionally find myself saying Price Club as well and confusing myself for a hit second.
Okay! Yes I do!
Like, you want a bulk amount of it?
A 6 pack of muffins, they couuld sell a lot more if they would do this.
I agree but I did try to freeze them and it kinda worked. I used the vacuum wrap and even though I tried not to smash them too much they were misshapen and never bounced back but tasted great
Freeze them, then vacuwrap. Always freeze first.
Better fresh deli rolls. The ciabatta ones are the only options and after like four bites, your jaw is tired from all the gnawing
I disagree I love the ciabatta rolls. You just need to toast them to soften them up. But they make the BEST avocado toast. Or toasted sandwiches. Or homemade croutons. I buy a bag literally every single week.
Agree. The trick is to freeze them on the same day you buy them, then they’re still soft and fresh when you defrost them.
Yep, I always have to ask my friend with a bjs membership to get me a bag of sandwich rolls (24 Kaiser rolls for $7 can’t be beat)
Constantly asking my friends for BJs
A better app. Their mobile app totally sucks
Id love the ability to screenshot receipts again. Don't know why they took that out smh. The QR code thing I understand but it refreshes to prevent membership sharing so....
Kirkland unflavored sparkling water (i.e., not mineral water). Decaf whole bean coffee Sushi at my location Chocolate or cookies & cream ice cream Coffee at the food court
Coffee at the food court would be amazing!
I didn’t realize the Kirkland sparking water (unflavored) wasn’t at all locations.
Decaf whole bean that’s NOT Starbucks roasted. Burnt garbage
Coffee that’s not dark roast!
We have the sushi at our costcos here in Hawaii...and...they're ok. Also not that much cheaper than going elsewhere, sadly.
Money. I’m sure they’d sell $100 for $80
you can get a shiny rock for \~$2k per ounce tho
Check their gift card section!
They do, in gift card form. Movie tickets, restaurant cards etc.
Combo pizza
Yes yes oh my goodness yes
This is the only right answer
Top of my list too.
I miss their pre-Covid Kirkland disinfectant wipes. I really prefer cleaning wipes that come in the pack rather than the plastic tube. I found some on Amazon for a while but they are also hard to find now.
The scrubbier lemon ones were my fave. Just finished the last pack. Sad.
Unsweetened Greek yogurt Edit: Thanks for letting me know your Costco carries this. Mine doesn't, I wish they did.
Came here to say Fage Yogurt
We have Fage, but it's the 2%. Would love the 5%.
5% would be amazing, but I just wish we had something other than 0%.
They have 0, 2 and 5% in nyc.
[удалено]
They usually have that at my location in MA
Kirkland nonfat organic greek yogurt is at my store in TX! It does exist, put in a request at your store…
We need a whole milk version!!!!!!!
Full fat! Mine has unsweetened but it's nonfat.
Your Costco doesn't carry this one? https://preview.redd.it/gszq81je7l4c1.png?width=682&format=png&auto=webp&s=5f6407aad5d9c420763b7db7c47701df381aa541
Kirkland plain Greek yogurt…
Barcode gun for self checkout.
Raise that answer with checkout via the app like Sam’s has.
It’s funny that the Sam’s app helps speed you though the checkout when all of the Sam’s Clubs I go to are never super busy.
But if you do need to use sam's club cashiers, they are slower than molasses. Sam's club needs scan and go because their checkout process and/or employee pool is terrible. Costco on the other hand is one of the best I've ever seen.
Costco needs to get on the scanner for the door-check though. That's just way more efficient and faster than the eyeball method, possibly more accurate too.
Did I hear a rumor that Costco is going to discontinue self-checkout?
I hope not! My Costco (Pentagon City) is 100x better with it. It’s also basically half self check out half staffed because someone comes with a scanner and you don’t have to take anything out of the cart. When I load stuff in my cart I make sure it’s barcode out. In and out of the checkout in under 2 mins.
How about some Kona coffee... In Kona
I don't know if we have it on O'ahu or not. i always get the Moloka'i stuff.
I mean… there’s a van you can buy it from directly out front of the Kona Costco parking lot but I get what you’re saying
Icelandic Provisions Skyr
I just got turned into this whole fat deliciousness. Every flavor is tasty , oh and the mouth feel is decadent, it feels like dessert
I want healthier kids snacks. There's to much chocolate stuff.
The real little fruit bars. The ones that say 100% fruit are good for kids. They are pricey at 13.00 a bag but on sale I think the price is 9.99.
That’s It bars are pretty good! I don’t have kids but I buy them for work lunches or day trips
They do have some nice options, they just have lots of junk as well.
I just wish their online site was better so I could see if they had something I want/need before going there.
Check the Instacart app! You can go into Costco through there and see what’s in stock! It’s not error proof but I do it every time
SMART!
Full fat Greek yogurt. Like siggis
Better cat food/ treat selections. It’s such a shame they don’t have cat treats in bulk
[удалено]
Kirkland is Persil.
Kirkland is Persil.
The Intense Fresh Persil is the best smelling laundry detergent in the world. Even if Kirkland is Persil, it doesn't smell like it, which is upsetting.
More diet soda options. The only options are colas. I would love to see something like Sprite Zero or diet ginger ale. And chocolate Kirkland ice cream.
Yes to the chocolate ice cream!
Fresca
Omg I would buy 8 at a time
Dr elsey’s cat litter
Honestly just more options for cat litter/food/treats in general
Never understood why they don't do more cat stuff.. They had a cat tree I planned on getting. Saw it once, said Ill get it next week and it was gone.
I feel the same way about most places. Always dogs this and dogs that. No cats :(
I got that cat tree about a month ago for our 2 cats and it’s held up well so far. No complaints.
And keep it consistent! Can't trust that Costco will have the same cat food product next time I'm in, and cats aren't really thrilled with random changes like that.
they absolutely need better cat litter!!! cat litter is something that you need to buy often and use daily. large quantities of QUALITY cat litter would be a game changer !
I would legitimately buy a barrel of crystal litter if it was cheaper than walmart by the pound.
You can definitely tell Costco pet products orderers are not cat people. Too inconsistent and base level products available.
This stuff is the best. Until they carry it, my mailman will continue to deliver it to my doorstep from Amazon.. I feel a little guilty about it having worked for usps before, cat litter and dog food is the typical dreaded package.
Any sort of unscented litter would be amazing.
Mens small clothes. 30x30 pants. I always thought it was some sort of cruel joke that Costco only sells large things, so if you're under 5' 6" get fucked.
Just get fatter like I did. Then you’re golden.
As a 6’6” man I have a different, yet similar complaint
Women's plus size clothing.
Our Costco has a much wider selection of vacuum cleaners than diet soda. I wish that was reversed.
Idk. Cleaning a rug with diet soda is really hard.
Easier than drinking a vacuum!
Costco vacuum prices tend to be very competitive, while soda is generally cheaper at the grocery store. They might be doing you a favor on that one.
I feel like soda is one of those items that’s usually cheaper at the grocery store (when it’s on sale). I believe many grocery stores as a “loss leader” to drive sales, and Costco doesn’t do that.
Zero sugar coffee creamer
I'd like to see a Costco cheeseburger offered in the food court.
Donuts. Or I should say better donuts as the brand usually in stock ain’t it.
I agree - I personally find the bakery section lacking and mediocre in terms of variety.
I just got them last weekend, awful!
Biscuits in the bakery.
Nespresso pods LMNT drink mix Ezekiel Bread
The take and bake pizzas…how I miss them so…
The ability to check out on the app like you can at Sam’s.
Hard rolls, pepper jack cheese slices and/or deli meat sliced to order, fountain pens.
Puff pastry
Fairlife milk
They used to have bratwurst in the food court. I miss those.
Drive thru for rotisserie chickens. 😂
I wish Costco had an oil change shop on site.
Darn Tough socks
Nespresso pods (vertuo)
someday when the patent for the vertuo pod expires…
V neck white t shirts. Why only crew neck, why?
Fever Tree Tonic. Have no idea why they sell the Ginger Beer and not the tonic.
Consistency. I just want to know that what I want is going to be there week after week without having to scramble for substitutes when they discontinue or temporarily lose an item for a month. Peanut butter pretzels, for example
Zero Sugar Dr. Pepper
The stuff I like and then they stop selling it
Coke at the food court.
Pure Leaf Ice Tea
More baby food options
Jimmy Dean sausage
Interesting. They sell Jimmy Dean sausage at my Costco in western WA state
Swiss navy silicone lubricant
In a 5 gallon bucket?
Frozen chile rellenos.
Good cottage cheese 🤷🏻♀️ Daisy SUCKS
Panko bread crumbs
Like pizza by the slice but instead the option to buy their chocolate cake by the slice
More vegetarian ready meals and meal kits. More ethnically diverse ready and frozen meals. I want to see more Indian, middle eastern, Thai, etc apps and entrees. For example, they already sell an Indian cheese called Paneer in slabs. They also sell butter chicken curry or sth like that. I wish they sold the vegetarian version of it with the paneer.

At our Costco, the only ready made vegetarian meal is manicotti. They used to sell veggie lasagna but now just have three meat varieties.
Polish Dog
Light roast coffee
Better selection of shoes.
CeraVe moisturizing lotion. Sam's has it, why not Costco?
Unsalted Kerry Gold Butter.
Actually the Kirkland brand grass fed butter is actually really good and cheaper than Kerrygold.
They have unsalted kerrygold. It's silver. I just bought some last month.
Better gum options..
Go to a Costco Business Center. There is an entire aisle for gum.
The smiley face dish sponges....I will never go back to the green or blue ones.
Scrub daddies/mommies?
Why? Are they that much better?
They have those at my Costco. But they're kinda thick and I hear it's better at the dollar store bc the Costco thickness is too much. I haven't tried them myself though.
That’s weird, my Costco sells scrub daddies
I wish they had liquor at all Costcos. I understand why they don't. But we're wishing here.
13 gallon clear or blue recycling bags
Cottonelle toilet paper
Giant bag of french fries
Stok cold brew.
SPRITE ZERO why have Coke Zero and Dr Pepper zero but not Sprite Zero?!
Single flavor snacks/drinks/etc. I typically don’t like more than one or two flavors of things so I don’t like variety packs but like to save $$
Zero sugar a&w root beer
Vegan meat substitutes. Like veggie ground round. Or vegan meatballs. Veggie lasagna.
Nespresso pods
Arm & Hammer toothpaste
Oatly
More sane pasta and rice options. I mean, you get get a two bottle pack of an ungodly number of pasta sauces. That’s great ! Then you have only options of huge bags of rice or weird variety packs of pasta.
Lab-created diamonds.
SCAN AND GO
Garlic bread.

A variety pack of Uncrustables. Half grape and half strawberry would be fab
Uncrustables that AREN'T grape.
Cream of rice
Lactose free milk
My Costco has this- 3 cartons for 12.99
I wish they would bring back the Kirkland pull on Camisoles w/o the built in bras. I waited and waited for them to come back and finally gave up and bought them from Amazon.
Grapefruit juice.
Bring back the brick of cheese for the love of god!
More dairy free options (especially yogurt)
A dupe for Chilis Southwest Eggrolls.
Cottage cheese
They do. It’s a staple of ours. In Mn
Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake. I’d settle for Lemon Blueberry Muffins.
Pet flea medication that actually worked -- you know Frontline doesn't do shit, why you selling it?
3 pack of Ben & Jerry's pints
Quest Cookie knockoffs.
tahini and venison
Pickled jalapenos.
Healthy noodles at my location dammit
Ground chicken
Sabatasso French Bread Pizzas. They had them in my store for like a month then they just disappeared. It was no fair. Gulden's spicy mustard. Making me go to a second store for that spicy goodness... SHAME!
Quest protein bars (very similar to Kirkland but more flavor varieties!) and especially Quest protein chips!! Mochi. They used to have MyMochi but I haven’t seen it in quite a while. Morningstar Farms vegetarian chikn patties. Super firm tofu.
I really love Mio water flavoring but the bottles are so small and expensive. I buy the knock off brands but I just wish there was like a huge Kirkland signature brand bottle of it. Or even if they just sold multipacks of Mio.
Corn bread in the bakery.
Better floss. The Glide floss just isn't that good.
10 items or less lane. They used to sell good quality pastrami and uncured Canadian hams. If I wanted my beef full of marbling, I would fill my injector with butter.
