8 Bizarre Products You Can Buy at Costco

Ah, Costco, the place where you save money shopping for items like giant boxes of cat litter, bulk bottles of olive oil, and the famous $1.50 hot dog.

The king of big-box bulk stores, Costco is sure to have what you're looking for (and some things you're not). It offers more than just the expected, though. Here are eight bizarre things you can buy at Costco.

While Costco probably brings to mind bulk items, like giant containers of peanut butter or enough supplements to last a year, not everything the retailer sells fits that category.

In fact, you can purchase a vacation from Costco Travel and save money over booking it yourself or through a travel agency.

You can step up your travel game and jet off to Costa Rica for a week or score some serious Disney deals with Costco. You can even build your own package to the destination of your choice, whether that's in Tahiti or Tampa. 

There's no harm in being practical about major life events, and many worry about their final expenses. Costco has a modest selection of caskets in various colors and materials.

Prices start at $1,150, which is quite reasonable compared to what you'll get at a funeral home. You can even have the casket shipped to the funeral home of your choice.

If being able to buy wedding bands at Costco doesn't surprise you, then the sheer variety of options will, as there is something for everyone and every budget.

Whether you're seeking a simple band that won't break the bank or want to go all out with a $4,000 platinum ring that's encrusted with diamonds, Costco has your back.

But don't let those prices scare you, as Costco also has wedding bands for around $130. Oh, and you can get engagement rings too.

Maybe you like planning ahead. Really planning ahead. The ReadyWise Fruit and Vegetable Bucket contains 104 servings of freeze-dried fruit and vegetables with a 25-year shelf life. The pallet includes:

• Eight servings of freeze-dried peas
• 24 servings of freeze-dried corn
• 16 servings of freeze-dried apples
• 24 servings of freeze-dried bananas
• And more!

All of this for the low price of $99.99. 

Known for being streaked with yummy fat, Wagyu beef is some of the best meat out there. Unfortunately, it's also very expensive, which is where Costco comes into the equation.

Wagyu beef is available at Costco in several different packages. You can opt for the $469.99 New York Strip (three pounds), the $1,099.99 boneless ribeye (12 pounds), or the $649.99 filet mignon steaks (three pounds).

If that sounds like a lot of money for some beef, it's actually a pretty good deal once you shop around.

If you can't get enough of this chocolate and hazelnut spread, you're in luck. The retailer sells Nutella in a giant bucket — almost seven pounds of it, to be exact.

While most people might pick this up for their restaurant or food truck, we won't judge you if you deem this product worthy of personal use. Unfortunately, it can only be shipped to commercial addresses, so you may just have to dream about having this much Nutella all at once.

Parmigiano Reggiano cheese is delicious, albeit on the expensive side. However, if you buy it in bulk, you can get more for less.

If you're a chef at an Italian restaurant, you might want to head to Costco to pick up a giant 72-lb wheel of the stuff, which will set you back $949.99. However, if you're just a regular cheese aficionado, this may be a bit much.

Don't want to head to a gym to enjoy a sauna? Costco sells a variety of saunas for your warming pleasure.

If you're looking for a high-end unit, opt for the $5,000 infrared sauna that can fit the whole family. 

If you're on a stricter budget, there's a cozy infrared sauna for two that costs $1,899.

Costco is well-known for carrying large amounts of household items, such as toilet paper, paper towels, pasta sauce, and frozen items. And yes, buying items in bulk is a great way to get ahead financially.

But sometimes, even the most practical stores can surprise you with a bizarre product for sale — and Costco is no different. 

If you're considering buying a big-ticket Costco item, be sure to use one of the top cash back credit cards to earn more when you shop.
