Thanksgiving Food Finds: Shopping at Costco

Thanksgiving is fast approaching and shoppers are preparing for the holiday season. Many are turning to Costco for holiday essentials, from discounted baking supplies to easy appetizers and quick meals.

Andrew Edelblum, Ph.D., an assistant professor of marketing at the University of Dayton, has observed how new and seasonal products at Costco generate excitement, even without significant discounts.

“They don’t need exceptional deals on their products to create excitement each week,” Edelblum shared with Fox News Digital.

This buzz is particularly apparent with Costco’s pumpkin pie, benefiting from its bulk purchasing and in-house bakery production.
