Costco’s seasonal pumpkin pie is back, and shoppers are once again paying close attention to a dessert that appears only around this time of year. The Kirkland Signature pie has returned to U.S. stores ahead of fall, weighing about 1.64 kilograms and reportedly selling for $5.99.
Parade reported that the price comes to roughly 50 cents per serving if the pie is divided into 12 portions. That combination of a large size and low price has helped make the dessert a familiar fall choice for many U.S. consumers.
The Costco product information community The Costco Mama said Costco sells more than 6 million pumpkin pies every fall. The New York Post also reported that the pie weighs 3 pounds 10 ounces and costs $5.99, describing Costco members as particularly enthusiastic about the product.
The pie’s price looks especially modest beside Costco’s seasonal pumpkin cheesecake. That dessert weighs about 4 pounds and costs roughly $25. Costco’s official Same-Day website currently lists the pumpkin pie at 58 ounces, or about 1.64 kilograms, but shows a price of $6.80. The $5.99 figure comes from recent reports about U.S. warehouse prices, while actual prices and supplies may vary by location.
