Costco is a good place to shop if you’re looking for deals, even on expensive items.

You may be surprised, however, by just how expensive some of Costco’s products actually are. Tucked in among the big boxes of cereal and 30-roll packs of toilet paper are items that come with eye-popping price tags. Shopping at Costco can save you money on just about anything from dazzling diamonds and dining room sets and more.

Before you hand over your credit card for your everyday Costco items, check out a few products that may be on the pricey side but are pretty impressive to peek at.
