Fresh Blueberries

$4.99 per 18-ounce package

You can’t go wrong by stocking up on some fresh blueberries during your next Costco haul. The fruit is as tasty as it is nutritious. Packed with fiber, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients, blueberries have antioxidant properties that can support brain, heart and digestive health, among other bodily functions. Plus, they’re easy to freeze and save for months when you have extra. Whether you intend to purchase one packet or the limit of 10, use some of your $4.99-per-pack berries to make recipes like our Low-Carb Blueberry Muffins and Anti-Inflammatory Lemon-Blueberry Smoothie for breakfast this week.

Catalina Crunch Cinnamon Toast Keto Cereal

$3.30 off a 20-ounce bag

Costco has a slew of snacks that we love for helping to reduce inflammation and stabilize blood sugar levels. And the Catalina Crunch Cinnamon Toast Cereal is no exception. Without milk, one serving has 14 grams of carbohydrates, including 9 grams of dietary fiber, meeting both our high-fiber and low-carbohydrate nutrition parameters. Plus, it has zero grams of added sugar (aside from nonnutritive sweeteners like stevia and monk fruit). For people who are mindful of their blood sugar levels and carbohydrate intake, a bowl of this cereal can be a great snack or breakfast alternative to higher-added-sugar products. At $3.30 off of every 20-ounce bag, eating this product in moderation can be a great way to enjoy something slightly sweet and satisfying.

Jackson’s Sea Salt Sweet Potato Chips

$1.70 off a 16-ounce bag

Satisfy any hankerings for salty and crunchy food by snacking on a bit of Jackson’s sweet potato chips. They’re a pleasantly sweet twist on the classic russet potato crisp, and they bring a few unique nutritional benefits to the table, too. Sweet potatoes contain beta carotene, an antioxidant shown to have anti-inflammatory properties and support heart and vision health. Plus, each 28-ounce serving offers 274 grams of heart-healthy potassium to your day. Enjoy them as a snack with one of our best creamy dips, or eat them as a flavorful side to our Honey-Mustard Turkey Burgers.

Sabatasso’s Four Cheese Gluten-Free Pizza

$4.30 off 3 pizzas

Sometimes, a frozen pizza is the best option for lunch or dinner. It’s an easy, customizable meal and tastes downright delicious most times. So, with Costco putting Sabatasso’s frozen four cheese pizza on sale right now, it could be your bakeable savior on any busy days ahead. Conveniently, the pizza is also gluten-free (using rice and tapioca products) for anyone who might have a gluten-intolerance. Make it a complete meal with a veggie-packed side dish like our Summer Blueberry Salad With Toasted Pecans & Feta for some extra staying power. Not to mention, this 5-minute salad gives you yet another way to use up those discounted fresh blueberries!

Titan 40-Can Collapsible Cooler

$6 off (23.99)

No matter your destination—the beach, pool, lake or even your backyard—if the sun is out, your drink’s getting warm. It might be a good idea to invest in a sizable cooler. Luckily, Costco’s one of the most cost-effective places you can get your hands on Titan’s collapsible version right now. Other retailers like Amazon are offering the product for over double this sale price. The cooler would be perfect for carrying cold snacks on the go or keeping your favorite canned drinks cold and crisp.

ThermoFlask Insulated Standard Straw Tumbler with Handle

$7 off

Is your iced coffee warm by the time you’ve commuted to work? Maybe you were expecting your favorite tea to soothe your throat after an hour, but instead it’s chalk-cold. These are tell-tale signs you’re not using an insulated tumbler. No need to worry, though, because Costco is slashing $7 off of their ThermoFlask two-packs. Each tumbler holds 32-ounces of liquid and keeps your drink cold or hot for hours longer than any uninsulated cup will. Plus, they come in bright colors like orange, pink and more to match your personal style. Get a pack to split between you and one of your loved ones, or keep two to switch up your color scheme on different days.
