Costco shoppers love the warehouse superstore in any season, but there are plenty of great deals to enjoy in the summer months, too. Costco fanatics lining up for the Forbidden Glizzy (Costco’s hot dog stuffed into its chicken bake) also know when the best time is to scoop up some of their favorite products outside the food court.
For instance, savvy shoppers who love being by the poolside, at the beach, hosting a barbecue and simply taking advantage of longer, lazier days, stock up on all those seasonal supplies at their favorite mega-warehouse retailer, and obviously, do so in bulk. Here are eight great buys Costco superfans always add to their cart when the weather begins to warm up.
Mac Sports XL Folding Wagon
- Price: $96.99
This collapsible and versatile wagon is great for lugging around groceries, tired kids, beach or pool supplies or even vacation luggage. It also makes packing meals and drinks for picnics and sporting events a breeze.
Kirkland Signature Organic Coconut Water
- Price: $12.99 for a 12-pack
Hydrating and packed with electrolytes, coconut water is especially great in the summertime because it’s a refreshing and healthy way to beat the heat. The pink color in Costco’s coconut water indicates minimal processing and higher antioxidants as a result. It’s organic, free from added sugars to boot.
Kirkland Signature Organic Lemonade
- Price: $7.59 for 2-count (96 fluid ounces each)
One of everyone’s favorite summer beverages would have to be a chilled glass of frosty lemonade. Kirkland Signature Organic Lemonade is definitely one of the hottest buys when it comes to refreshing drinks. Great for barbecues or backyard parties, at this price, this organic lemonade is a staple for Costco fanatics and novices alike.
Weber Spirit E-335 Grill
- Price: $599.99
Another summer favorite is Weber grills, specifically the E-335, which currently offers you the best bargain. They are well-made, effective and very reasonably priced for all your summer cookouts. Quality makes a difference and it’s important to have your food cooked on a grill, so don’t hesitate, as many Weber grill models are exclusive to Costco.
Ninja CREAMi Deluxe 11-in-1 Ice Cream and Frozen Treat Maker
- Price: $189.99
You’ll have the most popular home on the block when you let the neighbors know you’ve picked up Costco’s Ninja CREAMi ice cream maker. Way better than saying “we have food at home” is saying “we have ice cream at home.” This dream machine has a range of settings so you can make whatever frozen treat you’re in the mood for, including ice cream, sorbet, milkshakes and frozen yogurt.
3-Piece SunVilla Archer Outdoor Patio Seating Set
- Price: $849.99
Whether you have a small balcony or porch, a tiny garden patio, or simply want more seating in your backyard, this three-piece patio set (complete with two swivel glider lounge chairs, one table and a furniture cover) is a great deal. Make your outdoor space as comfy as possible so you can enjoy the sunny weather whenever time permits.
Neutrogena Beach Defense Sunscreen Spray SPF 60
- Price: $17.99 for a 2-pack (8.5 ounces each)
Bulk packs of sunscreen that can be found at Costco, Neutrogena in particular, are very handy and easy on the wallet and sensitive skin. Costco sells these on a multi-pack basis, which is great for any family that spends a lot of time outside and goes through sunscreen by the beach bucket.
CedarCraft Self-Watering Elevated Spruce Planter
- Price: $179.99
Another favorite spring and summer find is this CedarCraft garden bed on wheels. You can literally go green by growing all your own salad greens, sweet snap peas or other veggies. The garden beds are convenient, movable and make gardening fun for the whole family- plus, there’s a self-watering irrigation system-perfect to remove a little human error out of gardening.
