Shoppers recently noticed that Costco quietly slashed prices for its Kirkland Signature Fully-Cooked Bacon—at least at several warehouses. A customer reported on Reddit that the product’s price had dropped from $14.99 to $12.99.
“Its price is pretty volatile but I’ve seen it as low as $10.99 and as high as $18.99,” the customer added.
Some locations have apparently lowered prices for the Kirkland Signature item even more. Two Redditors reported scoring the bacon for just $12.49. Since the level of discount appears to vary, members should check directly with their local warehouse to confirm how much it costs in their area.
Kirkland Signature Vanilla Extract
Yet another Kirkland Signature item is among the Costco products that have gotten much more affordable lately. Several shoppers recently reported a serious price reduction for Kirkland Signature Vanilla Extract, a popular baking staple at the warehouse club.
One of these shoppers said they scored a 16-ounce bottle for just $11 after paying $20 the last time they purchased the item. As with the Kirkland Signature Full-Cooked Bacon, prices for the vanilla extract could vary by warehouse. Still, you might want to check out the item at your local Costco to see if your warehouse has rolled out any similar price reductions.

A popular type of rice sold at Costco—Sun West Calrose Rice—has become even more appealing to shoppers after a recent price cut.
In a Reddit thread, one shopper recalled that the 50-pound bags cost around $26 before the COVID-19 pandemic then later skyrocketed to a peak of $46. Thankfully, the product has become much more affordable since then. The Redditor said the massive bags cost $29 the last time they spotted them. Another reported seeing prices as low as $25 in Southern California.
Kirkland Signature Grass-Fed Beef Patties
Nutrition information unavailable.
Just in time for grilling season, Costco has reportedly lowered prices for a staple barbecue item: Kirkland Signature Grass-Fed Beef Patties. While the frozen burgers were previously priced at $25.99, they’ve recently gone down to just around $22.99, a shopper reported on Reddit.
Shoppers say they’re still not as cheap as they were before the pandemic, but any discount is welcome at a time when inflation is still on the rise.
Kirkland Signature Nitrile Gloves
According to Costco shoppers, prices for Kirkland Signature Nitrile Gloves skyrocketed from about $10 to around $30 during the COVID-19 pandemic. Thankfully, customers won’t experience quite as much sticker shock with the item nowadays.
A Redditor reported that the gloves had dropped down to around $20. Available in small, medium, and large sizes, each box contains 400 gloves.
