A COSTCO shopper shared a great find after a wildly popular fleece appeared on clearance for just $1, thanks to the famed ‘death star’ pricing.
Users in the Reddit thread were quick to praise the user on their budget find, with some sharing that they “never see deals like this.”
The shocking deal was first shared on Reddit in a Costco thread.
Costco’s clearance section has a cult-like following among members, thanks to its unpredictable yet rewarding nature.
Unlike traditional sales, these markdowns are rarely advertised and vary by location, making them somewhat of a treasure hunt for shoppers.
SHARING THE SURPRISE
In the post, which now has over 200 upvotes, a shopper started the thread with ‘Mondetta fleece pullover, my first clearance. My daughter said she would wear around the house, not bad!’
Mondetta is a brand known for its stylish yet functional activewear, and its fleece pullovers are no exception.
Loved by shoppers, especially during colder weather, the popular fleece usually retails for over $20.
This lucky buyer happened upon a fleece for just £1.
Its practical design and affordable pricing made it a hit even before this drastic markdown.
While $1 for a brand-name pullover may sound too good to be true, it’s not uncommon.
Costco will often offer massive discounts on selected products to clear out inventory.
In a picture submitted along with the original post, the item featured the notorious ‘death star’.
NOTORIOUS STAR
The ‘death star’ refers to an asterisk symbol on Costco price tags.
This signals that an item is marked for clearance and will not be restocked once it is sold out.
For some members, this symbol is the ultimate clearance signal to stock up on their favorite items.
often prompting them to stock up before the item vanishes forever.
Several Reddit users noted how good of a find this was.
One person wrote, “Nice score! I haven’t been that lucky.”
A second person followed up, sharing, “I never seen to find anything on clearance at my Costco. Is there a specific aisle they have for these items? Or are they just kind of sporadically placed?”
While a third user said, “If it’s like the full-zip Mondetta fleece jacket, that is a great find. It’s so soft and great quality.”
If you’re hoping to score a similar deal, it’s best to act fast.
Clearance items at Costco tend to fly off the shelves as soon as the ‘death star’ appears.
