Retail chain Costco appears to have decided to stop selling Bud Light at its stores as the company has given the beer the dreaded “star of death,” suggesting an end to product sales.

Images shared online show notices at Costco announcing the sale of Bud Light together with an asterisk sign, popularly known as the “star of death.” An item depicted with such a sign at Costco is an indication that the retail chain won’t restock the product or that the item has been discontinued. It’s unclear whether the “star of death” mark is applicable to all Costco stores or only select ones.

“Costco has decided NOT to restock Bud Light. Still no apology, and they still haven’t learned their lesson,” Blaze TV host Chad Prather wrote in a July 13 tweet.

That doesn’t mean the product can’t come back, but it’s gone for now.

It’s time for Bud Light to go Beyond, like Bed and Bath did.

Bud Lite needs to “Go for the gusto” and die like Schlitz.

Meh. I’m sure the Costcos that so stock other AB products will continue selling those. It’s only Bud Light itself that’ll disappear.

Not that they even have a big beer section anyway. The Costco near me actually remorked that section a month or two ago, and lost maybe 1/3-1/2 of the beer space to wine and the stupid water spritzer things. Sucks cause the closest Total to me is a decent drive away now :(
