As September rolls in, businesses start launching new rounds of promotions, and the popular American warehouse-style chain store Costco is no exception. This beloved retailer is offering a series of online deals on hot products for its members.
According to a survey by gobankingrates.com, 46% of Americans most frequently purchase food at Costco, while only 6% buy personal care products, 4% purchase clothing, 4% purchase home goods and furniture, 3% buy electronics, and 1% buy appliances.
Consumer analyst Julie Ramhold from the shopping comparison website DealNews once said, “If shoppers are savvy, over time, they can save hundreds of dollars by shopping at Costco compared to grocery stores.”
Currently, Costco has launched a range of new bestselling products on promotion, from delicious seafood to coffee, and even emergency food items, with prices more competitive compared to other retailers. Many of the seafood offerings are favorites among the Chinese community.
“Eat this not that” has compiled a list of 9 popular items featured in Costco’s September “Connection” promotion that are highly favored by consumers.
Costco members can now purchase a 10-pound whole Dungeness crab from the Northwest Fish brand for $219.99, down from the original price of $279.99. These crabs come from Alaska, Washington, Oregon, and California.
“This crab is fantastic. It arrived frozen very well and the packaging was great. The taste completely met my expectations for Dungeness crab!” one customer exclaimed.
Costco is also offering wild Alaskan red salmon slices from the Northwest Fish brand at $179.99 for a 10-pound pack, reduced from the original price of $229.99. Customers praise the freshness and quality of this salmon.
“Fresh wild salmon! I have been buying it for several years now, and it’s the only salmon I purchase. The quality is outstanding. If you can’t go to the physical store to buy in bulk, you can order online, and they will ship it to you frozen. Their packaging is also great. The item arrives frozen! The portion size is just right, and the salmon itself is very delicious,” another customer shared.
Costco frequently offers long-lasting emergency food items that are highly appreciated by members. Currently, the Augason Farms brand 30-day emergency food kit is on sale for $79.99, down from $99.99.
One customer commented, “The product arrived quickly. This bucket product is convenient for storage. I like its long shelf life. The price is affordable and gives peace of mind.”
The Plaza Golden Osetra brand offers a 2-ounce gift box of caviar for $129.99, reduced from $169.99.
“Absolutely delicious! The delivery was convenient and the packaging was chilled. Perfect for a charcuterie board for our party of four,” a member shared.
This dish features Angus beef Prime filet mignon paired with Maine wild lobster tails, priced at $159.99, down from $199.99.

Costco members can now purchase a 9-pound pack of Rastelli’s grass-fed French lamb chops for $239.99, reduced from $329.99.
“So delicious! Ordered for a dinner party. However, while the overall taste was good, many of the lamb chops were broken and quite thin. Some were even shattered,” a customer pointed out.
Starbucks fans will surely love the Starbucks coffee and espresso capsule bundle for Nespresso Vertuo machines (60 capsules) priced at $78.99.
“We love our Nespresso Vertuo machine and the coffee it produces – these capsules are a must-have. They are sold in bulk, the quality is on par with Starbucks, it’s just fantastic!” a customer raved.
Collagen peptides are multifunctional proteins and an important component in healthy nutrition, promoting bone and joint health while aiding in skin care.
Further Food’s collagen peptide powder, sourced from grass-fed animals, is priced at $28.99, down from $38.99.
“A few years ago, I started using it to relieve arthritis pain in my ankles, knees, hips, and wrists. I stuck with it for a few months, two spoonfuls a day, and noticed a reduction in swelling and pain. After a few months off it, the pain and swelling returned, so I know it works for me!” a Costco customer shared.
This soothing cream with a soft texture is a new favorite among Korean skincare enthusiasts, priced at $29.99, reduced from $39.99.
“I really love this product. The texture is lightweight and doesn’t cause breakouts on my combination dry-oily T-zone skin. So when I heard the price for a two-pack at Costco was even more affordable, I was hooked! I will purchase again,” a Costco customer praised.
