See every Costco price drop — including the .97 endings.

Costco prices follow a private but predictable rhythm. Items ending in .99 are everyday low prices, .97 means manager markdown (often deeper discounts coming), and an asterisk on the price tag means it won't be restocked. PriceWatch records every change and surfaces the signals that veteran Costco shoppers already know to look for.

What you get with the Costco tracker

All the Costco-specific signals — manager markdowns, asterisks, member-only pricing — without the hand-checking.

.97 markdown alerts

The single most valuable Costco signal: when a price ends in .97, the manager has marked it down. We email the second any tracked item flips from .99 to .97 — often the start of a deeper discount cycle.

Asterisk & restock alerts

Asterisks signal Costco won't restock — buy now or never. Seasonal items rotate fast and members-only deals disappear without warning. We watch 24/7 so you don't have to refresh.

True low-price proof

Costco rotates inventory aggressively, so "Was $1,799, now $1,499" can be misleading when the same TV was $1,399 in October. Our 90-day history exposes the real low.

How to track Costco prices in 3 steps

1. Find the Costco product you want to track

Open costco.com and navigate to the product page. This works for any Costco online item — electronics, appliances, member-only seasonal items, even tires. Copy the URL from your browser's address bar (it should look like costco.com/...product.html).

2. Paste the URL into PriceWatch

Paste the URL into the tracker box at the top of this page. We instantly pull the product name, current price (with .97/.99 endings preserved), asterisk status, and stock status from Costco.com. No manual data entry.

3. Tell us what you're watching for

Choose "any price drop", "manager markdown (.97)", or "back in stock". We check Costco.com every 15 minutes (Pro) or every 4 hours (Free) and email you the moment your conditions match.

Why track Costco prices?

Costco's pricing is one of retail's most signal-rich systems — but most shoppers don't know how to read it. Prices ending in .99 are everyday. A flip to .97 means a manager markdown, often the first step of a clearance. An asterisk on the price tag means the warehouse won't restock the item once sold out. Veteran Costco shoppers obsess over these signals because they're real.

The problem is you have to be there to see them. Manager markdowns can hit overnight, asterisks appear without warning, and members-only seasonal items rotate weekly. PriceWatch monitors all three signals continuously and tells you the moment any one fires.

Costco categories with the biggest price swings:

How is PriceWatch different from Costco's own alerts or Honey?

Costco's website sends marketing emails about featured weekly deals — but it won't notify you when a specific item you care about drops. You only see the list Costco wants to push.

Honey applies coupon codes at checkout. Costco rarely uses coupons (their model is everyday low prices), so Honey is essentially useless on costco.com.

PriceWatch is a personal tracker. You tell us the specific Costco URL, we monitor 24/7, and email you the moment a .97 markdown lands or an item flips back in stock. No marketing emails, no coupon noise, no membership upsell.

Frequently asked questions about Costco price tracking

Do I need a Costco membership to use PriceWatch?
No. PriceWatch tracks the public prices visible on costco.com, no membership required to monitor. You only need a Costco membership to actually purchase. We'll flag when an item shows a members-only price so you know which items are restricted to members at checkout.
What does the .97 ending Costco price mean?
Prices ending in .97 are manager-marked-down items — Costco's signal that an item is being clearanced, often the start of a deeper discount cycle within the next 2–4 weeks. Items priced .97 are usually being phased out and will not be restocked. PriceWatch flags every .99 → .97 transition the moment it happens.
Can I track in-warehouse prices or just costco.com?
We track costco.com prices. In-warehouse prices generally match online, but some items are warehouse-only (rotating "treasure hunt" items) and others are online-only. We cover the entire online catalog with full price history; warehouse-only tracking is on the roadmap.
How accurate is PriceWatch's Costco data?
We sync with costco.com every 15 minutes for Pro users and every 4 hours for Free users. Prices match the live site 99%+ of the time, including .97 markdowns and Executive member pricing where Costco displays it publicly.
What's a Costco asterisk and why does it matter?
An asterisk (*) on the price tag means Costco won't restock the item — it's being phased out, replaced by a new SKU, or a one-time buy. Once warehouses sell through current inventory, it's gone. PriceWatch flags asterisk items the moment they appear so you can decide whether to grab one at current price or wait for a deeper markdown.
