The hunt
Costco shopping is a treasure hunt: an item shows up on a pallet one week and is gone the next, with no promise it'll ever come back. The things people chase — Pokemon cards, the Nintendo Switch 2, LEGO sets, even gold bars — sell out fast online and disappear from the warehouse floor just as quickly.
There's no public schedule for when Costco restocks, gets new shipments or deliveries, or adds new items, and no official Costco stock checker — which day of the week stock lands varies by warehouse. Instead of calling around or refreshing costco.com, point DiffHook at the exact Costco listing and it works as your stock checker, alerting you the moment it's back in stock online.
The honest answer
When does Costco restock?
Costco has no fixed restock days or published restock schedule — it restocks on a rolling cycle (warehouse and online treasure-hunt restocks), and how often any single item comes back varies by store. Because there's no reliable day or timetable to plan around, the dependable way to catch a specific product is to watch its page and let DiffHook tell you the moment it's back, instead of checking Costco on a loop.

DiffHook watches Costco for you
We check the Costco page on a tight interval, looking for the stock status or "Add to cart" button to change — no manual refreshing, no app left open.
Get pinged the moment it restocks
When Costco puts it back in stock, you get an instant alert on your channel of choice — usually within seconds of the change going live.
What the alert looks like
The instant it flips to "in stock"
Delivered where you want it
The webhook payload tells you exactly what changed — so a Discord bot, an iOS Shortcut, or your own script can react instantly.

Stop living in a dozen open tabs. DiffHook does the watching so you can close the page and get on with your day.
