As a Costco employee of 21 years, I love having a front-row seat to the new products that enter the warehouse.
This month, the shelves are stocked with everything from holiday decor and seasonal staples to fun tech and kitchen accessories.
Here are eight of the best items I’m seeing on shelves right now.
These Halloween throw blankets are soft and chic.
Shoppers at my Costco location have been loving the soft, Halloween-embroidered faux-fur throw blankets.
They come in three different varieties — a black cat with piercing yellow eyes, orange pumpkins, and white ghosts — and are a great way to add some spooky-season flair to your home.
I’m excited to try the new Nutella peanut spread.
I love that classic Nutella flavor, but the new peanut variety really caught my eye.
For Nutella peanut, the brand combines its original hazelnut flavor with the rich roasted taste of peanuts. This creamy spread seems like it would be great with fruit, waffles, and pancakes — or on its own.
These Hunter boots are perfect for rainy fall days.
I was excited to see the Hunter women’s original short-back adjustable rain boots at Costco. They’re waterproof and easy to pull on, with a cushioned footbed that makes them comfortable for rainy-day errands.
The adjustable buckle at the back also helps create a more customized fit.
The AR Blue Clean pressure washer is great for tackling outdoor projects.
The AR Blue Clean electric pressure washer is great for cleaning up outdoor spaces. It has enough power to wash away dirt and grime from patios, decks, driveways, and more.
It weighs about 28 pounds, but has locking swivel wheels, so you can easily roll it around to where you need it. Plus, it can be carried by the handle or mounted on a wall for storage.
It comes with a 25-foot hose, a foam cannon for soap, and three nozzles, so you’ll have everything you need to get started.
Get a head start on holiday shopping with this adorable Pokémon calendar.
If you have a Pokémon fan in your life, this holiday calendar is a great gift idea.
Each set comes with 24 Pokémon figures, one to open each day. If you’re interested in purchasing this item, I’d act fast — it’s been selling like crazy at my Costco location.
The Canon Ivy 2 mini photo printer bundle helps turn smartphone photos into keepsakes.
The Canon Ivy 2 mini photo printer is a great way to turn smartphone photos into stickers.
The printer connects through Bluetooth and prints 2-by-3-inch photos with a sticky backing, so you can easily add them to scrapbooks, walls, lockers, and more.
Plus, it uses “zero ink” technology, so you won’t need to buy ink cartridges. Just download the app, charge the printer, load the paper, connect your phone, and start printing.
The bundle includes the printer, a charging cord, and 60 sheets of photo paper.
I think the GreenPan Jewel Pro cookware set is gorgeous.
The GreenPan Jewel Pro ceramic 11-piece cookware set is both stylish and practical. It comes in two gorgeous colors, green or beige, and includes seven pots and pans with four lids.
The pans are dishwasher-safe and have a nonstick coating that makes for easy clean-up. Plus, they’re safe to put in the oven and broiler at up to 600 degrees Fahrenheit.
I recommend grabbing a bottle of limited-edition Kirkland Signature organic golden maple syrup.
If you’re looking to add some extra sweetness to your pancakes or waffles, you may want to pick up the Kirkland Signature organic golden maple syrup.
This limited-edition item is made from 100% pure maple syrup from Canada. Its unique bottle is eye-catching and reusable, with a flip-top stopper that keeps it tasting fresh.
