Every year, the reigning champ of bulk warehouse clubs somehow finds a way to better the previous one by releasing an abundance of so-called “hot finds” which its customers go absolutely bananas over. And as each season progresses, members are introduced to can’t-miss deals, brand-new appliances and fan-favorite foods — some of which reach all-new levels of fandom both in-store and online.
This year has been no different for Costco, and despite potential changes to their membership fees and the controversial impending changes to the food court menu, there have still been dozens of amazing hot finds to obsess over this year. And as we wrap up the year and look forward to new beginnings, we thought we’d whip up a list of this year’s hottest Costco finds, in no particular order, but very much deserving of some extra attention. Because what kind of fans would we be if we didn’t look back at what made Costco so special to us this year?

1. Sur La Table Electric Kettle
Costco
We all know it takes little to no effort to brew up a quick cup of hot tea with any old tea kettle or pot for that matter. We do, however, live in the modern age of convenience and this digital kettle does an amazing job at putting tea brewing on autopilot while still keeping things pretty simple in the process. Not only does the kettle feature five different tea settings and sport a built-in stainless steel infuser, you can also use it to boil hot water in minutes that can also be used for any other hot beverage or soup. Upgrading to the Sur La Table Electric Kettle would be $30 well spent in our opinion.
2. Frigidaire Countertop Ice Maker

Those who get their ice by way of multiple frozen ice cube trays stuffed into the freezer know exactly how annoying it can be to not have ice cubes handy at a moment's notice. The Frigidaire Countertop Ice Maker is truly a lifesaver for those having large get-togethers where a lot of ice at one time may be needed. Simply whip up a batch of ice cubes and transfer the cubes into your freezer for use later. You can also dump them directly into the cooler and keep the party hydrated with ice cold drinks all night long.
3. Snapware 38-Piece Plastic Food Storage Set
Costco
More than just one of the best deals this season, the Snapware 38-piece Plastic Food Storage Set is an absolute lifesaver inside the kitchen and beyond. Priced at just $28, the set included 19 containers in a variety of sizes, each with their own lid to keep things airtight inside. Each piece stacks conveniently with the next and can be run through the microwave, dishwasher and freezer with no problems at all. This is one set that no one was trying to miss out on.

The home chefs of the Costco membership club were freaking out over the steal of a deal this butcher block actually was. For $60, customers were upgrading their old cutting boards with this beautiful 24 x 18-inch and 1 ½-inch thick heavy duty butcher block and not even thinking twice about the price. If you’ve ever been on the hunt for a large butcher block that doesn’t cost over $100, then you know that it's just like searching for a needle in a haystack. In this case, Costco went ahead and found the needle for you.
5. Chefman Electric Glass Top Warming Tray

Think of it like a $45 investment into countless successful family meals. The electrical warming tray features an adjustable temperature control and a 21 x 16-inch surface area to work with. You can use it to easily transport hot food from the kitchen to the buffet table and it even comes with a safety mechanism which keeps things from overheating. This is one of those items you don’t know you need till you have it, and once you have it, you’ll be getting your money’s worth in no time.

This is one very rare hot find that just isn’t in everybody’s price range. If you can afford it, however, it would transform your kitchen into the movie-style space of your dreams.
