Oh, Costco, the lovely land of… practically anything you could ever want. From their famed food court (hello, $1.50 hot dogs!) to their essentially endless grocery aisles, you’d be surprised about the mass amount of miscellaneous stuff you can shop at this marvelous store.

Skincare, clothing, and wine are a bit more expected when it comes to unexpected Costco finds as a whole, but there are plenty more unexpected items that will shock you just as much as they shocked me.

Scroll on to see some of the wacky and unexpected items you can buy with your Costco membership!

1. Clothing

Costco's clothing section is packed with hidden gems like 100% cotton Gap sweaters for just $15 (!), yoga jackets for $19, and Land's End jackets for $15. They practically have everything you could possibly need to complete an outfit, like shoes and bags – even down to socks and underwear.

6. Tires

Yep, you can suit up your car with tires straight from Costco! Their tire center tends to carry all kinds of tires for any car model you'd need 'em for. They can also do a good ol' tire rotation for you or repair holes.

Glasses

I hate to say it, but yes, Costco does sell coffins. One Reddit user that purchased one noted that a Costco coffin cost them "thousands cheaper" than one from a funeral home and that the quality was "10/10."
