I've worked at Costco for 21 years. Here are 7 of the best things I'm seeing on shelves right now.

As a longtime employee, I think the Red Bull advent calendar and Disney crew-neck sweaters are some of the best things to get at Costco right now.

As a dedicated Costco employee, I am excited to share seven of the best items currently on display at the warehouse. This month, the shelves are filled with delightful treats, fashionable sweaters, and useful kitchen essentials. Here are seven standout products that caught my attention.

First, I highly recommend the Bakery Street churro cupcakes, which taste just like a classic cinnamon churro, with soft, moist cake filled with dulce-de-leche-flavored whipped cream. These are particularly enjoyable when paired with coffee or milk.

Next, the Disney crew-neck sweatshirts are adorable and popular among customers. They come in three different embroidered patterns featuring Star Wars characters, Mickey Mouse, and the Seven Dwarves from Snow White. These sweaters are made with 60% cotton and 40% polyester, and have previously sold out at my store.

Fans of energy drinks will appreciate the Red Bull advent calendar, which offers 24 8.4-ounce cans in 11 different flavors. This unique calendar is a fun way to explore various taste profiles and is well worth purchasing while it's still available.

The Reese's sweet-and-salty variety pack is another must-have item. It contains 36 individually wrapped Reese's treats, including peanut-butter cups, Reese's Pieces, filled pretzels, dipped animal crackers, and dipped pretzels. This variety pack has something for everyone, whether they prefer sweet, salty, or chocolate flavors.

For post-workout relaxation, the Sharper Image handheld rolling massager is an excellent investment. This motorized device features eight rollers designed to alleviate muscle tension and tightness. Users can choose between deep-tissue, kneading, and shiatsu-style massages based on their preferences.

Costco has also started carrying Skinny Butcher chicken dippers with barbecue sauce, which are ready-to-eat grilled chicken breasts that come in 11 grams of protein per serving. These snacks can be consumed cold or warm and include a tangy barbecue sauce without high-fructose corn syrup. Each serving is individually wrapped, making them perfect for school lunches or quick snacks.

Lastly, the Smith and Clark 15-inch preseasoned cast-iron skillet is ideal for creating a one-pot family meal. This versatile skillet is safe for use in the oven or broiler, on the grill, and is easy to clean after each use.
