With over 1,300 upvotes, a Reddit post offers the pro tip of visiting sameday.costco.com to see if an item is sold at your local Costco. The post explains how to use the webpage and adjust inflated prices to see what the available items actually cost in stores.
Among the many commenters who shared their feelings on the tool, one person noted that the website doesn't always work. However, the said commenter also assured that using chat support online will reliably help you find your item.
