The crisp air of fall rolls in, and not only do you grab a light sweater but also your wallet to do some heavy spending. It’s that wonderful time of year when the holiday season hasn’t quite started but the time to stock up on fall items has. It’s also the perfect time to refresh and seasonally redecorate your home, pantry and wardrobe with all the essentials to please your autumnal spirit.  

Sam’s Club, known for its wide range of high-quality products and unbeatable prices, is a great place to save money on bulk buys but also may have some items too good not to impulsively purchase. Nothing sets the mood for fall quite like festive, and sometimes spooky, décor. 

As one of the ultimate destinations for all your fall shopping needs, Sam’s Club has your supplies, no matter if it’s necessary or discretionary spending. However, with a wide selection of seasonal decorations, comfort foods, warm clothing and Halloween-themed fun, you won’t have to choose which is which.

Here are eight fall items that may not make the most budgetary sense, but that doesn’t mean you won’t add them to your cart. Also, if you’re a retiree shopping at Sam’s Club, here are five items you need to buy before the summer ends.

Beetlejuice Airblown Inflatable Archway

  • Price: $199.94

Though you may not want to say the name of this item three times, it doesn’t mean your house won’t be the most festive one on the block. This 10.5-foot lawn feature self-inflates in minutes and deflates when the holiday is over for easy storage.
