6 Best Costco Items to Stop You from Getting Too Bored This Winter

Keeping winter interesting can be a challenge, especially once the holidays are over. That’s doubly true if you live somewhere cold and love the outdoors but despise winter sports.

Fortunately, making the most of your winter doesn’t have to be expensive if you already have a Costco membership and know some of the best shopping tricks.

When you feel winter boredom starting to creep in, check out these 12 Costco deals guaranteed to get your post-holiday season back on track.

Want the luxuries of a hot tub without the associated expense and frequent maintenance?

The SaluSpa Laguna AirJet Inflatable Hot Tub costs $599.99 at Costco, holds more than 177 gallons of water, and comes with a water filter, energy saver, and digital temperature control panel.

It even has jets which, according to user reviews, are pretty mighty for a small inflatable hot tub.

Ready to cure your boredom by learning a new sport? Table tennis is the ultimate indoor game.

The Stag Pacifica model comes with four rackets, ten balls, and a setup option for solo play so you can perfect your game whether you have a table-tennis partner to play with or not.

This model is weather-proof and built specifically for the outdoors, with all-terrain wheels for easy outdoor transportation, and is priced at $899.99.

So, if you feel like braving the elements or live in a more temperate climate, a ping-pong table gives you a great excuse to go outside without straying too far from your home ground.

Take your Switch game to the next level with a seven-inch Nintendo Switch OLED screen.

An OLED screen gives you much sharper visuals on a larger screen than your current Switch, and it works with Joy-Con controllers and all of your existing Nintendo Switch games.

Costco’s bundle includes a one-year Nintendo Switch Online family membership, a Nintendo Switch case, and an SD card with 128GB of external storage space for $399.99.

If a seven-inch screen isn’t enough for you, the Samsung G5 gaming monitor has incredible screen resolution (2560 x 1440), a one-millisecond response time, and a refresh rate of 165Hz.

That’s enough speed to keep you on top of the leaderboards and a high enough resolution for a fully immersive visual gaming experience.

If you’ve been dying to try makeup tips from your favorite health and beauty YouTube or TikTok creator, treat yourself to an at-home makeover with one of Costco’s many makeup kits.

The Artis Monograph collection includes eight color palettes with four shades of eyeshadow each for $129.99.

It only includes one brush, so you’ll want to have your own beauty tools at home to get the most out of it.

Hopefully, you’re already taking advantage of Costco’s discounted gift cards. After all, they’re easily among the best perks of your Costco membership.

Just as it does with every bulk item, Costco sells gift cards in bulk so it can pass savings along to you. That means you can often get a pack of gift cards worth $100 for just $89.

That’s the case with Costco’s current Xbox gift card deal. If you want to get a new console or buy some new games, swing by Costco to get a gift card first so you can save up to $25 on whatever you purchase.

The next time you find yourself running low on winter activities, one of these Costco items could be just what you need to get through the next bout of boredom.
