- These are the top 10 things you should be buying
at Costco in the month of May.
Welcome back to the channel.
Oh my goodness. Do I have a list for you guys.
I'm the YouTube Deal Guy, Matt Granite.
Great to have you here.
From a product that turns your stove into a barbecue
to solar bug zappers,
deals on self-defense products and desserts
that include free champagne flutes.
I've got you covered in a big way today.
If you guys like this video or my research,
please give this video a thumbs up.
It helps a great deal.
The first group of products
you should be buying from Costco in the month of May
are all entirely frozen.
Let's start with a 20-pack of organic popsicles, $9.99.
This is the type of thing you would find at Whole Foods
at 2-3x times the price.
Not that I shop at Whole Foods,
but I have been hit with ads
thanks to my Prime membership.
There's a 12 count of sorbet,
and the fruit in this sorbet tastes so good,
you're almost convinced for a couple of moments
you're eating something more creamy, like a gelato.
And a five-pound of highly coveted, frozen mango chunks.
These mango chunks are ideal for smoothies, sangria
and countless others, summer beverage concoctions.
In the number two spot before I tackle storage
and some great products for your car,
self-defense is front of mind for many people
who have resumed jogging. If you guys look at me,
I've clearly never jogged a day in my life,
but for those of you that are out there,
there are four packs of pepper spray and the fogging sprays.
So, two pepper sprays and two fogging sprays for $29.99.
And while you are outdoors, whether it's camping, hiking,
or you're looking for self-defense against a storm,
there is a two-pack of LED lanterns.
And these LED lanterns which are very well rated,
include phone chargers, a bonus.
And two for $19.99 is two big thumbs up in my book.
In the number three spot,
it's a trio of winning kitchen products,
before I jump into those products for your car.
You'll find a four-piece fridge bin set,
hopefully available at your local Costco this month,
new,
$19.99.
This four-piece of fridge bin set is ideal for fridge,
possibly freezer, and even pantry organization
this DIY season.
You're gonna find a two-pack kitchen cooling rack for $9.97.
If this price appears a little bit high to you
even though you are getting two,
the one sold at Costco are nonstick and stackable,
which puts them ahead of what you might find
at your local dollar store.
I found a six-piece knife set
including covers for each of the knives at $16.99,
which is an astoundingly low price.
And if you do the math, that works out to $2.83 per knife.
And as an add on to this category
in the event that you do cut yourself with an old knife
or a new knife,
these Welly's bandage kits
include 150 different colored bandages of all sizes.
Great for first aid in the kitchen,
a glove compartment, hiking and enjoying the outdoors.
And just as a parent,
although my daughter has been walking for quite some time
as she nears her third birthday,
she still falls down quite a bit,
Actually, so do I,
so, this would be a great thing to have in your home.
In the number four spot
of what you should be buying at Costco in the month of May,
let's talk cars.
This microfiber wash brush
which includes a soap dispenser,
an ideal Father's Day gift at $24.99.
And on the same car aisle in Costco
while we are talking Father's Day gift ideas,
you can buy a ratchet tie-down set,
an entire four-pack made by CAT,
industrial strength,
$21.99
for all four.
In the number five spot,
it's like I just gave you an imaginary high five.
That was weird.
But in that spot of what you should be buying
at Costco in the month of May,
let's talk food.
The Mandarin orange chicken,
absolutely delicious,
$13.99 cents.
You can spare yourself that next overpriced take out bill
thanks to just how delicious and authentic
this happens to taste.
The chicken fried rice at $11.69,
also doing the Asian food selection
of the Kirkland brand proud.
And, the quiche two-pack just to throw that in,
a cheddar broccoli and spinach artichoke combination,
$11.49,
another Costco food favorite in my household
in the month of May.
In the number six spot,
it's all about barbecue products
and also some great Father's Day contenders here.
So, this is a category you might wanna consider
for either occasion.
The five-piece barbecue set that you see right here, $16.99.
I understand that you could find the same thing
at Dollar Tree for half the price,
but this is better quality.
Speaking of splurges,
this seven-piece barbecue knife set, $99.99.
Now, this comes from a brand called Cangshan,
incredibly well-rated
but also extremely expensive on Amazon.
Some of the Costco offerings
beat the Amazon prices by about 50 bucks.
And while we're on the topic of barbecue,
more of a bargain tied to The Rock reversible grill.
This essentially allows you to barbecue on your gas stove.
It's two-sided,
it's $21.99.
And while this was actually released at the end of April,
it was very difficult to find at many local Costcos.
It is now more widely available.
Before I show you a product test
tied to one of the stranger items on this list,
in the number seven spot,
it's all about seasonal bug zapping.
The two-pack solar bug zapper
which has adjustable sizing,
you could crank it up in height for a patio,
or make it shorter for a walkway,
$49.99 for a two-pack.
If UV insect traps are more your thing,
mosquitoes, hornets, flies, wasps,
you all don't stand a chance against this $70 bad boy.
I realized the prices might be a little bit higher,
but most of these products are tied to reputable brands
and products that bring all sorts of benefits
for your entire summer and fall potentially.
And this travel hammock which I love,
weighs under two pounds in terms of its portability,
but will handle up to 400 pounds in weight,
$24.99.
In the number eight spot
of what you should buy at Costco in the month of May,
a product I never really anticipated exploring.
Post-tax season, a lot of us might just be looking to shred.
Or if you're like me,
you don't get out that much,
and you don't have a whole lot of friends
other than the amazing subscribers of this YouTube channel,
and in all honesty, my family's absolutely awesome.
I like shredding just for fun.
I saw an advertisement for this Microcut shredder
that can supposedly handle 18 pages at once
and credit cards,
$99.99.
And I'm thinking to myself,
I already have one from the Amazon Basics brand
which unfortunately seems to jam from time to time,
and the ones at Staples at the time I'm uploading this video
aren't particularly competitively priced.
So, I explored this product
and I want you to hear right now
just how quiet this product is in terms of its operation.
(paper shredder grinding)
I showed those 18 pages at once who was boss.
And this thing is even on wheels.
So, if you have a small office or you just enjoy shredding,
I highly recommend this product in the number eight spot.
In the number nine spot,
it's one of those incredible products
you didn't know you needed.
And it's a folding wagon that has a 300-pound capacity.
Bear with me for a moment.
This wagon would not only be ideal
for all of your Costco grocery runs
where you could then bring this back to your car,
folded up, stored in the back seat.
But this would also be ideal for any of the DIY projects
around your home
if you are contemplating something in your backyard or yard,
tied to gardening or landscaping.
Although it does have a fabric liner,
you could easily put something
a little bit more protective on top of this.
But the 300-pound weight capacity,
and the fact it folds,
and has a price of $69.99
gives this a number nine spot on my list.
In the number 10 spot
before I get into a rapid round of bonus items
that you definitely wanna see,
I present to you life changing desserts.
And almost all of these are under 10 bucks.
Let's start with chocolate croissants.
Why not?
$6.99.
I hate to say it,
but this tastes even better than what I am able to enjoy
at my local bakery.
Yes, it is so important to support
the local eateries, and bakeries,
and hardworking members of our community.
But for $6.99, I am taking these chocolate croissants home.
There's a pick two Danish special going on for $9.99.
These are larger in terms of both size and taste,
and would definitely be a favorite around an office.
The raspberry white chocolate Bundt cake.
I wanna thank my wife for flagging this
because I would have walked right by it,
$11.49, pure deliciousness.
You can get a tiramisu for $6.99
which is more reflective to what you would find
as an overpriced dessert,
at least double the price at a fine Italian restaurant.
And at $6.99, this can hold its own.
And as we finish up the dessert round,
the big finale is a chocolate dessert.
While I was standing in front of these,
I actually had two different Costco employees come up to me
from two areas of the store over the course of five minutes.
Yes, I stared for a long time.
These include a delicious layer of whipped cream and cocoa
over a chocolate cream.
And for $9.99,
with this, you get six champagne glasses
that are 12.7 ounces and are very nicely made.
In fact, this is a product of Italy.
Now, you could go to the Dollar Tree
and get champagne flutes,
but they're not gonna fill it with desserts.
And for roughly the same price,
I'm telling you on this one,
Costco is the way to go.
And now, for some rapid fire bonus buys
of what you should buy at Costco in the month of May.
You'll find a four-pack of broom hooks for $9.99.
If you break down the price per item,
you're roughly a buck 50 more
than what you would find at the Dollar Tree,
but the quality is better.
This highly searched for and very well-reviewed goat's milk
and soybean oil soap for what it's worth
has absolutely no additives, is extremely natural,
and apparently great if you have sensitive skin.
You can find cooler bags for $8.99.
Great if you do not live near a warehouse club
and you're bringing back some frozen food.
Also great for the summer tailgating,
so many other ways to enjoy that.
And I'm happy to report
the neatfreak free standing storage closet sets
are under a hundred bucks at Costco,
$99.97.
Ideal if you are packing up a student
that's heading off to college,
or a student apartment and dorm.
These are also great ways that you can organize a guest room
or really any room in your home.
You could even put this free standing storage closet
inside a larger closet
and really maximize your organization.
