Camping Gear

If you’re looking for a more off-the-grid option this summer, stop by Costco on your way to greet mother nature. Here, you can pick up must-have Costco summer essentials to brave the harsh unknowns of your local campground.

They have everything you need to tackle the elements, from self-inflating air mattresses, and spacious tents. One of Costco’s best-selling products is the Core 6-person Instant Cabin Tent.

This tent is made of water-resistant fabric and has space for two queen-air mattresses. It can be pitched in just a minute and offers excellent value at $129.

Coolers

If you decide to go camping or even if you’re just entertaining some friends and don’t want to mess with many small containers, consider buying a $99.99 huge 165-quart cooler.

Plenty of perks come with that price tag: This must-have Costco summer essential is fully insulated with an antibacterial liner, the lid stays open if you want it to, and if instructions are followed precisely, Igloo claims the cooler can keep your items cold for up to 7 days.

This makes it perfect for camping if you’re taking a vehicle.
