We have the $120 annual membership.
What we save on dog food in the first four months of the year pays for that membership. And the store brand dog food is manufactured for Costco by Diamond, so it's better quality than anything available at Walmart for less.
Household goods, TP, laundry detergent, dishwasher detergent, etc, etc are a significant savings if you have space to store them.
Some of the deals on groceries, meat, frozen goods and so forth are significant if you have a deep freeze or extra fridge in the garage to keep everything in.
It's more than a grocery store though. Appliances, furnishings, electronics, gas, tires, and more can be had at decent prices. For instance, I can get a name brand car battery from Costco at the same cost as Auto Zone's no name special.
As others have said, the annual cash back reward is at least $120.
But...
You have to set a budget, have extra space, and be disciplined about shopping there. Stay out of the central impulse zone in the store unless there's something you need there, and comparison shop on major purchases. It's great for people stuck in the suburbs. For everyone else, YMMV.
As far as the hot dog goes... It's just a meme, man. Relax.
