Also see five affordable things you can buy at Trader Joe’s.
Potted Multi-Bloom Hydrangea
- Price: $10.99
Spring means flowers, and Trader Joe’s has you covered with a variety of spring blooms. This potted multi-bloom hydrangea makes a great Mother’s Day gift, hosting gift or just-because gift. You can also grab one for yourself. Hydrangeas are perennials, so you can plant them in your garden for beautiful blooms every year.Â

Tulips 20-Stem Bunch
- Price: $12.99
Tulips are truly a sign that spring is here, and Trader Joe’s has a 20-stem bunch for $12.99. You can pop them into a vase and enjoy the cheery colors. They also make a great gift for Mother’s Day!
The ‘OG’ (Old Goat) Aged Goat Cheese
- Price: $12.99
If you want to up your cheese game this spring, the aged goat cheese is a harder version of traditional goat cheese, but the taste is similar. Trader Joe’s recommended slicing it thin and serving it with crackers or grating it over hot pasta. Of course, you can always eat slices on their own or get creative with a goat cheese-topped pizza or salad. It’s available for only a limited time, though.Â
Rolled Corn Tortilla Chips
- Price: $2.99
The chili and lime rolled corn tortilla chips were so popular that Trader Joe’s asked its supplier to make a ranch version too. At a low price of $2.99, you can grab multiple bags to have on hand all spring.Â
Garlic Butter Nut Mix
- Price: $6.99
Another great spring snack to stock up on is the garlic butter nut mix. This new product includes crunchy-coated cashews, almonds, pecans and bread chips coated in butter and garlic seasoning. This is the perfect addition to a charcuterie board — or you can just set the tin out.
