15 Things Every First-Time Costco Shopper Should Buy

Costco’s warehouse can be overwhelming, to say the least. With an average of 146,000 square feet of household essentials, furniture, groceries, and business supplies, you can get lost in there. So what should a first-time Costco shopper look to purchase first? 

We looked to some of the most popular items as well as Costco-exclusive items to help you find some of the best Costco finds for those new to the retailer.

Costco Cracking Down on Pets in the Store

In a move many members (and employees!) are hailing as long overdue, Costco appears to finally be cracking down on people taking advantage of its lax service animal policy enforcement.

Come on, we’ve all seen that lady walking down the aisle with her ill-behaved chihuahua - even more often since the pandemic - and you just know it’s not a service dog.

If your local Costco doesn’t have a sign like this out front yet, it might soon!
