Possibly, but in my opinion probably not. Costco is selling these chickens for $4.99 each. It's a loss leader, and (as far as I have heard) Costco is adamant that this price will not change. I think Costco is simply trying to reduce the amount of loss they are taking at that price.
* I know it works on me, I go in for the free samples mostly and regularly spend $50+ on a visit (maybe half the time), and just recently spent $7,000 on a massage chair.
- madengr 9y agoThey used to be $3.99, but even at $5 they are twice as big and 1/2 the cost of grocery store chickens.
- Mankhool 9y agoYes, but what is the quality? What have they been fed and injected with on their way to an assembly line that kills them at the rate of 200/minute?
- madengr 9y agoThe Costco chickens taste good.
- loco5niner 9y agoThey do taste good. I have to admit though, after eating a lot of them, I suspect they have some brine added. Not a big deal, and not for sure, but I don't get them as much as I used to.
