7 Costco Finds That Help You Save on Warm-Weather Essentials

Summer often comes with a long list of essential things to buy. From sunscreen and swimsuits to sunglasses, those costs can quickly add up.

One way to reduce seasonal spending is by shopping at wholesale retailers like Costco. This retailer offers brand-name products at competitive prices. And if you’re a member, you’ll save money compared to purchasing similar products at specialty retailers.

Trending Now: The Best Costco Buys for the Money Right Now

  • Price: $13.99 (normally $17.99)

At about $7 a bottle, Neutrogena beach defense sunscreen is a steal, especially now that it’s $4 off. The broad spectrum SPF 60+ spray formula provides protection against skin-aging UVA rays and skin-burning UVB rays. Plus, it’s water-resistant for up to 80 minutes.

  • Price: $32.99

Polarized lenses usually cost $60 to over $100 at most stores. A pair of O'Neill polarized sunglasses at Costco for $32.99 is a legit deal. With these unisex shades, you won’t compromise on glare reduction for driving, boating or beach days.

  • Price: $28.99

These two-pack Harbor Bay beach towels are a steal at under $15 per towel compared to most department store options. And since beach towels take a beating with sand, saltwater, repeated washing, buying in bulk at a lower price point makes sense.

  • Price: $22.99

Loft swimwear retails for $80 to over $100 at its store. Finding a Loft one-piece swimsuit at Costco for $22.99 is a great deal. Besides, one-pieces are also a good bet for pool and beach wear, so this is a high-value grab for the price.

  • Price: $39.99 (normally $49.99)

No need to carry a bag of ice to the beach. The Titan Pro Iceless Zipperless Cooler can hold up to 40 cans and has an ice blanket for better cooling. It also has an insulated front pocket for extra storage and an adjustable shoulder strap. It’s a great upgrade for beach days or road trips, and it's on sale now at Costco.

  • Price: $15.99

Sunday Afternoons is a reputable sun protection brand. Every sun hat in the collection offers UPF 50+ protection, which is the highest rating possible and filters out 98% or more of the sun’s UV rays. If you can find Sunday Afternoons women's sun hat at Costco for $15.99, that’s a great deal because the same styles on its official website go for $40 to $60.

  • Price: $17.99

For men looking to update their summer wardrobes, swim shorts are a must-have. Costco's Champion men's swim short is $17.99, way less than you'd pay at a sporting goods store.
