What's The Most Unexpected Thing Your Local Costco Sells?

Tell us!

By now, you know we love Costco.

One interesting thing about Costco is that each location sells slightly different items — many super-specific to that Costco's state, region, or country.

According to BuzzFeed readers, some are even tailored to the city. For example, at the Costco in Astoria, Queens, you'll find whole frozen lambs that cater to the large Greek population. The location in Chico, California, is near a big brewery, so it always stocks a ton of locally-made beer.

At the Costco in Washington, D.C., you can buy federal buildings made of chocolate.

At Hawaiian Costcos, there are mango and guava cheesecakes and fresh-baked sweet rolls.

The Costco in Anchorage, Alaska, is stocked with bear spray, float coats, and whole-roasted pigs.

You can order poutine in the food court at Costco Canada.

And let's talk international: Japan locations have bulk sashimi.

And Costco Paris stocks platters of crepes in the bakery section.
