Unusual birthday party themes are becoming increasingly popular. From a boy who celebrated at a Target store to a girl whose obsession with CVS led to a red and white extravaganza, kids are choosing unique inspirations for their special day. Now, we have a young lady who truly loves a good bargain.
Meet Lily Johnson, who just turned five, and instead of opting for the standard princess or unicorn party, she picked something far more exciting — a Costco-themed birthday bash! “She’s absolutely fascinated by Costco,” shares her mother, Jamie Johnson. Rather than steering her towards a different theme, Jamie embraced Lily’s passion fully. “We served hot dogs and pizza, set up sampling stations, created mock currency with her picture on it, and offered Kirkland ice cream. We even had a mini-store where guests could design their own ‘membership cards.’”
Honestly, who wouldn’t want to be part of this fun celebration? First and foremost, there were plenty of samples to enjoy, as is customary at Costco.
Every product was clearly labeled for the guests’ convenience.
No Costco party would be complete without the iconic Kirkland pizza.
And of course, the birthday girl was honored as “Employee of the Month,” complete with her face on the special currency.
To celebrate this milestone, Lily received a one-of-a-kind cake. Turning five is certainly a significant achievement!
According to Jamie, Lily’s dream of a Costco-themed party has been in the works for two years, and it was well worth the wait. The local Costco in their area even made a custom employee badge just for her.
Before heading home, the guests were given goodie bags filled with bulk items, as you would expect at Costco.
They even had the chance to dash through the checkout lane, which was a hit among the young attendees.
Jamie expressed that the guests truly appreciated their attention to detail and commitment to the theme. “They found it hilarious and quirky, which perfectly describes my daughter,” she remarked. One of the little guests even claimed it was the best birthday party she had ever attended, surpassing her own! By the end of the day, Lily was one happy little employee.
As for how Lily feels about her newfound internet fame, her mom says she’s becoming quite accustomed to it. “She adores it. Last year, Perez Hilton shared a picture of her with his book, and she still tells everyone she’s famous.” Now that her unique party is gaining admiration online, Jamie adds, “She loves all this attention!”
We look forward to seeing what incredible theme they come up with for next year’s celebration!
