Costco is an ideal stop for seniors who want to stretch their limited incomes and save money on home essentials, gifts and even prescriptions. As the weather gets chillier and the holidays approach, consider stocking up on items that allow you to stay more comfortable, decorate your home and enjoy the season.

From food and vitamins to blankets and candles, here are five of the best Costco items that smart seniors should pick up this fall.

Comfort Foods

  • Price: $9.99 to $19.49

Whether you’re stuck inside due to bad weather or just want something quick and satisfying, Costco’s warm comfort foods are a solid choice for seniors. 

For an easy, filling breakfast, consider picking up a Quaker Instant Oatmeal variety pack with apple and cinnamon, cinnamon and spice, and maple and brown sugar flavors. Campbell’s Simply Chicken Noodle Soup works great for lunch or dinner. Plus, you can get your coffee fix any time with Kirkland Signature Medium Roast Coffee.

Personal Care and Wellness Items

  • Price: $11.99 to $18.99

As the air gets drier and viruses circulate this fall, consider making a few health and skin care purchases ideal for seniors’ wellness. 

Costco offers many budget-friendly supplements for seniors, such as Nature’s Bounty Immune 24-Hour+ and Kirkland Signature Adult 50+ Mature Multi. This citrus-scented Kirkland Signature body wash makes baths and showers more enjoyable and pairs well with Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Lotion for hydrated skin.
