The store also has a set of 6 gift bags in various large sizes for $39.99 for the more odd-shaped items you need to wrap. And there’s gift boxes in stock too — get a set of 10 of various sizes for $24.97.

Food

Christmas is a great time to indulge, and there’s plenty of ways to do so at Costco with these gourmet picks. Get an 9.5-lb., 18-month Aged Boneless Spanish Serrano Ham for $169.99 to feed a crowd, or a Rastelli Black Angus Beef Tenderloin Roast Holiday Meal that serves six and has all the extra dishes you need to make it a feast (without all the dishes), including gourmet sides of potatoes and creamed spinach.

If fish is more your thing, Costco also has Smoked New Zealand King Salmon filets for $89.99 and 10 lbs. of King Crab Dungeness Legs for $199.99. And to feed the veggie lovers in your family, grab this pack of 72-count black bean tamales for $89.99.

Costco has a range of great apps, too, like this pre-arranged charcuterie and cheese board that comes padded with crackers, dried fruit and chocolate. It retails for $119.99, which is a great deal for the heaping amounts of food included.
