Tizeye Posted July 10, 2018 Share #7 Posted July 10, 2018 I am confused. Up until about a year ago the had both the all beef hotdog and the Polish dog - which looked identical as served - for $1.50 with drink. You just specified which you wanted when ordering. Then they stopped the Polish where the only choice was the all beef...BUT... They created this Polish sandwich/bun smothered in onions and other stuff with the Polish appearing more sausage like than hot dog like, priced as one of their premium offerings in the $3-$4 range. I never tried it because I am cheap. I am wondering if they kept the hot dog, twin polish offering in other stores and this was simply an experiment in my market. While think the are currently offering the healthful salads, are they going to keep the premium sausage sandwich. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't recall seeing the polish dog at ours, just the hot dog combo. You may be right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife and I will sometimes split a frozen yogurt but when I used to run fundraiser snack bars we would make a killing off of the Costco pizzas. One large pizza is like $8 and we would sell slices for $2.50 and make 3X what we spent on them. We'd go through 10 -15 pizzas a day during tournaments.

Tom Yep. Costco used to be headquartered in Kirkland, WA but now it's out in Issaquah. Oh, yeah, eating those dogs are horrible for ya. I mean horrible. But man are they tasty with the right fixin's.
