Costco’s Memorial Day savings have kicked off. Check out these five amazing deals before their offers expire. [[{“value”:”

Unsurprisingly, Costco has a ton of good deals going on right now. Many are linked to its Memorial Day savings, such as its deals on mattresses and paddle boards, but quite a few seem to be stand-alone offers that expire at the end of May.

Often, I find the best deals are those that don’t get much publicity, such as the items buried under its “deals” page on its website. If you’re a Costco member, here are five such deals under $50 that won’t blow your budget.

1. Pet bed

Price: $39.99

The Kirkland Signature Bolster Cuddler Pet Bed is a dog bed with shreds of memory foam in the cushion and a bolstered wall that keeps the fiber mat in place. The cover is washable, so you don’t have to worry about it getting smelly. The bed comes in four colors: sand, brown, slate gray, and charcoal. You can also buy a slightly smaller hexagonal shaped Kirkland bed for a cheaper price ($29.99).

To be honest, most of my pets have shunned pet beds, preferring to sleep wherever they want, which is usually wherever I like to sit (chairs, couches, my bed). But my pets have been cats, who, let’s be real, do it on purpose. For small to medium-sized dogs, however, this bed could be a new favorite snuggle spot.

2. Vegan protein shakes

Price: $28.99

Orgain Plant-Based Protein Shakes are one of my favorite vegan shakes. They’re low in calories, high in protein, and have dozens of superfoods added. The problem is they’re expensive, running up to $43.98 for an 18-pack at full price at Walmart. At Costco, however, you can currently buy the same 18-pack of shakes for $28.99 (up to six per membership) after a $7 discount.

3. Reusable water balloons

Price: $34.99

You read that right: reusable water balloons. The Zuru Bunch O Balloons open and close like a Pokemon ball with magnetic strips that keep them sealed until impact. So no more picking up those plastic ribbons and twisted knots after a water balloon fight, these balls stay intact long after soaking their victim. You also don’t need to fill them up with a hose, but can just dunk them in a pool of water to fill them up. The regular price is $44.99, but if you buy them at Costco before May 27, 2024, you’ll get $10 off.

4. Skechers Men’s shoes

Price: $31.99

If you need a pair of slip-on sneakers, the Skechers Men’s Glide Lite Pacer Shoe could be your new kicks. They come in navy and black and in sizes between 8 and 13. Get $6 off when you purchase them before June 9, 2024, or save $20 to $50 when you pair them with at least five other qualifying clothing items on Costco.com.

5. Solar string lights

Price: $39.99

Little string lights might evoke Christmas, but something about string lights with big bulbs reminds me of summer nights on the patio. The Sunforce 36′ 18 LED Solar String Lights can add some charm to your outdoor spaces, with 36 feet of coverage. They come with a solar panel so you don’t even need to plug them into an outlet. Normally, they cost $49.99, but are discounted by $10 through May 31, 2024.

These five items only scratch the surface of Costco’s deals. Take a peek at the “deals” section on Costco’s website, or go to your local warehouse to see what other great savings opportunities you can take advantage of before offers expire.
