In other news, the Costco mega discount store CEO announced a couple of days ago that their signature $1.50 foot-long hotdog and drink lunch special price is safe!
They introduced that combo, priced at a fair $1.50 back in 1985. It has held until today and will continue well into the future. Although Costco loses money on each hotdog sale, many people who come in for that hotdog also exit the store with a $100 basket of other, profit-generating wares and goods.
So, good on them and long last the American hotdog!
