Stay warm on blustery fall days with a Spyder superlite jacket. 

These lightweight jackets feature a zip-up closure and an attached hood and come in youth sizes, extra small through extra large. Pick from black, blue, pink or purple while they’re still in stock.

• Price: $14.99

Carter’s layette set is a fantastic value for families dressing babies on a budget. The four-piece set includes one shirt, one bodysuit, and two pairs of pants in green (dinosaur) red (fire trucks), blue (floral) or purple (ditsy) patterns. Shop baby sizes 3M up to 24M before your preferred size sells out.

The rave reviews for this kids’ zip jacket from Lands’ End, plus its affordable price, make it a must-buy for fall wardrobes. Each brushed fleece jacket features two zip front pockets and a hood in purple, green, blue and multicolor designs.

“The jacket is lightweight, yet warm and comfortable for colder days and nights,” wrote Skyward in a five-star review. “It’s not a winter weather jacket, but it’s perfect for NC weather! The price was great for the quality and it’s cute!”

• Price: $17.99

Swap out regular pajamas for Jaclyn women’s Halloween pajamas and keep your total under $20. These PJs are available online only in gray or purple and the full set includes one top, one pair of pants and one pair of shorts.

Praise for the PJs in reviews highlights the soft fabric, overall cuteness and liking them so much that several shoppers said they bought more than one pair.

• Price: $24.99

Conquer coughs early when you shop for Robitussin DM day and night cough relief. 

At just under $25, this maximum strength liquid cough syrup comes with two cough and cold congestion bottles and one for nighttime cough. By comparison, a single nighttime cough bottle from the same brand retails for $12.49 at Target. This product is also FSA eligible so you can pay for it using the funds in your account.

• Price: $19.99

Keep skin moisturized and hydrated in drier weather using Cetaphil moisturizing lotion. This bulk set includes two 20-ounce lotion bottles, only costing members about $10 apiece.

• Price: $19.99

Ahead of the holiday season, and if you’re resolving to cook and bake more meals instead of dining out, it’s a good idea to stock up on Kirkland Signature all-purpose flour. 

Members receive two 10-pound flour sacks for $20 — a great value compared to name brands, which tend to cost more for fewer pounds.

• Price: $13.99

Restock the baking cupboard with a bottle of pure vanilla extract for all your fall baking needs. Each generously sized 16-ounce bottle might have enough extract to tide households over into the winter and holiday baking season.

• Price: $16.99

We’ve mentioned stocking up on flour and vanilla extract, so don’t forget the Toll House chocolate chips to top off pancakes, cookies, muffins, scones and many more baked goodies. 

At $16.99, these 72-ounce bulk bags are slightly cheaper to buy now than what you’d pay at Sam’s Club or a big-box retailer like Walmart.
