.

I'm referring, of course, to Costco's legendarily low-priced hot dog combo, still standing firm at $1.50 after some 38 years and counting.That's ridiculously cheap in today's dollars, even for a hot dog. In fact, if the Costco hot dog were virtually any other food item in America, it would cost almost three times as much.
