Toys to Buy at Costco This Holiday Season

Want to get a head start on your kids’ wish list this year? We recommend heading to your nearest Costco warehouse. There, you can purchase top-selling toys at up to 30% off the price you might pay at other retailers for the same items.

This popular giant chain is more than just rotisserie chicken and has larger-than-life flat-screen TVs. Typically located near the center of the store, the toy section changes frequently throughout the year and grows in number as seasonal items begin to fill the aisles.

Costco doesn’t disappoint with a wide selection of toys, from play kitchens to plush toys to rare Lego sets. And if you’re in the store, don’t skip the book table. With the busy holiday season approaching, now is an ideal time to explore all the club has to offer and enjoy more savings and convenience from your membership when you need it most. Do you need to sign up for membership? Don’t worry. We can help you save on one of them.

Popular toys you can find at low prices at Costco

There are so many gifts that will delight children of all ages. We can’t list them all, but we’ll round up some of the most popular toys that will be sold at Costco so far this season. And while you’re at it, compare prices to make sure you’re getting the best deal.

Squishmallow 16-inch Plush Frosted Toaster Pastry

Give the gift of Squish this year with this 16-inch huggable Pop Tart with embroidered sprinkles. This plush is very soft, cozy and squeezable. Costco also has six other Squishmallow friends available in this size and price.

Stanley Jr. Children’s Workbench Tool Set and Wooden Kit

A compact workbench is perfect for any budding builder. This product includes two assembly kits with pre-cut parts along with tools to get you started right away. The exact same workbench can be purchased at several different retailers, but it doesn’t include tools or project kits, and at 30% less when you buy it from Costco, it seems like a win-win all around.

Vtech Kidi Star Drum Pad

A drum set is every parent’s worst nightmare, but not this one. Vtech has created a quieter drum pad version that includes 30 songs you can play along with, or wireless technology that lets you connect your own music. You can also connect headphones. Headphones are not included, but batteries and drumsticks are included.

STMT DIY Rainbow Jewelry Studio

This mini studio includes over 1,500 jewelry-making supplies to create over 75 unique pieces to wear or share with friends. This particular kit is only sold at Costco, but for comparison, a much smaller set containing only 500 beads and bobbles costs 20% more on Amazon.

LEGO for cheap at Costco

Costco is a great place to get the most popular LEGO building sets at low prices. Retailers have several sets available now in stores and online. When purchasing online, most sets are sold in bundles of two or more, further increasing your savings. However, if you shop in-store, you can purchase sets individually. Let me show you a few different scenarios.

LEGO Talking Sorting Hat

Once created, this interactive hat comes to life with a moving mouth and 31 different sounds. The Sorting Hat includes 561 pieces and will make a magical gift for any Harry Potter fan. You can purchase them individually online and in stores at a lower price than other popular LEGO retailers.

LEGO Chrysanthemum, Plum, and Cherry Blossom Bundle

This cool floral building set is part of the LEGO Plants collection. Colorful buds and flowers in pots not only make the perfect gift, but they also double as maintenance-free floral arrangements. The chrysanthemum and plum blossom set is a bundled product online, but can be purchased separately in the warehouse.

Individual set prices at Costco stores: $21.99

Competitive Retailer Individual Sets: $29.95 on Amazon

LEGO Poinsettia and Christmas Tree Bundle

The LEGO seasonal sets have arrived, and considering how viral the Christmas tree went last year, they’re sure to sell out quickly. New this year are poinsettias, which are gorgeous and easy to make. This would be a fun activity for the family to make together and display during the holiday season. These two holiday sets are sold in a bundle online, but I only found the poinsettia set in stores.

Costco Poinsettia Set is sold in-store only: $37.99
