One of the best parts of being a longtime Costco employee is that I get a front-row seat to the new products that arrive each month.
I especially love seeing the new items at the end of the year, as I get lots of great inspiration for entertaining and gifting.
This month, Costco is carrying everything from cold-weather essentials to delicious seasonal treats. Here are eight of the best items I’m seeing on shelves right now.
The Hudson women’s puffer jackets are warm but lightweight.
Nothing says winter quite like a puffer jacket, and this month, Costco has a great selection of women’s options from the Hudson brand. I like these coats because they’re warm without feeling too bulky.
They come in classic colors like black and navy, and are available in sizes ranging from small to XXL.
I love the cozy Dearfoam slippers.
As temperatures continue to drop, the Dearfoam slippers have been a popular item at my store.
Perfect for gifting (or keeping for yourself), these cozy slippers are made with a comfortable memory foam insole. Plus, the knitted exterior is stylish enough for both indoor and outdoor use.
The Roborock QX Revo vacuum and mop makes cleaning a breeze.
The Roborock QX Revo is an all-in-one robotic vacuum and mop. It uses navigation technology to map out the space and create the best route for cleaning.
The best part? The mop cleans and dries itself after each use, and the vacuum dust bin automatically empties into a large bag that only needs to be changed once every seven weeks.
This month, Costco has the winter variety pack of Alani Nu energy drinks.
The Alani Nu energy drinks have been popular on social media, and this month, I noticed the winter variety pack hit Costco shelves.
Each box contains 18 cans in flavors like Breezeberry, Cherry Slush, and Winter Wonderland, which are sugar-free and have 15 calories or less.
Igloo’s iceless electric cooler is a total game changer.
Let’s face it — the worst part about packing a cooler is stopping to pick up ice along the way. But with the Igloo ICF40 electric cooler, no ice is needed to keep food or drinks cold.
The electric cooler essentially functions as a portable refrigerator or freezer, as the internal temperature can be set between 0 and 68 degrees Fahrenheit. It can be plugged into a wall outlet or the auxiliary outlet in a car for on-the-go cooling.
It’s great for long trips, tailgating, or simply keeping food and drinks cold outside.
I look forward to having the Kirkland Signature peppermint bark every year.
I always get excited for this time of year because of Costco’s seasonal peppermint bark. It’s made with dark and white chocolate, and topped with peppermint candy.
It’s great on its own, but can also be crushed and used as a topping for other desserts.
The Mikasa Home Accents candle warmer is a great way to keep your home smelling nice.
The sleek Mikasa Home Accents candle warmer is designed to melt scented wax candles without the need for an open flame. Instead, a 50-watt halogen bulb heats the candle from above, slowly releasing fragrance while avoiding soot or smoke.
The height can also be adjusted to accommodate candles of various sizes.
The Kirkland Signature dry facial towels are great for daily use.
The Kirkland Signature dry facial towels are made from soft, plant-based fibers and can be used to gently remove moisture, makeup, and residue.
Each box comes with 200 towels, which can be used as part of your everyday skincare routine.
