How you can skip the food court line at Costco

Costco shoppers listen up, there’s a trick that will let you skip the food court line and get your food in your hands shortly after you check out of the warehouse.

There’s nothing quite like filling up on a $1.50 hot dog or a tasty slice of pizza after finishing all of your bulk grocery shopping. The one downside is that Costco’s food court is pretty popular, which means you’re going to have to wait. However, there’s a trick that can get your food in your hands shortly after you check out of the warehouse. By the way, this is how Costco makes their pizza so delicious.

To skip the food court line all you have to do is order what you want at the register when you cash out for your groceries. Then, go over to the pickup area in the food court, show them your receipt, and you’ll get your food. It’s really that simple! To make the most of your Costco trip, don’t forget to snag the 12 items to always buy at Costco.

Another perk that people don’t realize they can take advantage of is that you can order pizza ahead of time. Just call your pizza in before you start your shopping and pick it up on the way out.

Now, when you’re in a rush you don’t have to try to fill up on the free samples. Just make sure you’re prepared to deal with the hangry stares from the customers waiting in line to order their food! Next, read about the secrets Costco employees won’t tell you.
