Costco has introduced a small but seismic update to its famous $1.50 hot dog combo, marking the first significant change to the meal’s composition in more than 40 years.
Costco now allows customers to substitute a 16.9-ounce bottle of Kirkland Signature water for the traditional 20-ounce fountain soda. While the pairing has evolved, the price — which has remained a flat $1.50 since the 1980s — remains firmly intact.


I echo the sentiment here. Any change to the sacred $1.50 Costco hotdog price is tantamount to a declaration of war.
CEO values his life.
