This market will resolve to "Yes" if the price of a standard Costco hot dog and 20 oz soda combo before tax exceeds $1.50 in any Costco store in the United States by December 31, 2026, 11:59PM ET. Otherwise this market will resolve to "No".

If Costco announces they will increase the price, this market will resolve to "Yes" regardless of whether that change is actually implemented.

The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from Costco, however a consensus of credible reporting will also be used.Costco’s longstanding commitment to its $1.50 hot dog and soda combo as a high-visibility loss leader continues to anchor trader sentiment, producing a 90.5% market-implied probability of no price increase before 2027. In March 2026, CEO Ron Vachris publicly reinforced this stance, stating the price will remain unchanged during his tenure and echoing earlier pledges from prior leadership. A May 2026 operational tweak adding a Kirkland bottled-water option while holding the core price fixed further illustrates management’s emphasis on customer loyalty and food-court volume without immediate margin pressure. Strong consensus reflects Costco’s historical pricing discipline amid broader food-cost inflation, though a future leadership transition or sustained commodity-cost spikes could still introduce volatility to these odds.Costco is known for selling cheap hot dogs.
