How many of these appeal to you?

There’s a reason so many people are willing to keep paying for a Costco membership. That fee gives you access to a wide range of products, like bulk groceries and household essentials. 

But Costco is more than just a grocery store. It carries everything from clothing to toys to books to gadgets. And shopping there often means getting to save money on the things you’re buying.

Meanwhile, Costco offers its share of limited-time deals that rotate from month to month. Here are some of the bargains you may want to take advantage of in April.

1. $800 off a Cambria leather sofa

Ready for a furniture upgrade? If you’ve been boosting your savings account to purchase a new sofa, you may want to consider this model being offered by Costco at a discount. The Cambria sofa is made of top grain leather and comes in cream or dark brown. Your final price at Costco includes delivery and setup of your sofa.

2. $100 off the Dyson Cyclone V10 Animal + Cordless Vacuum Cleaner

Many people associate spring with ramping up on the cleaning front. So if you want to focus on cleaning your floors, it pays to scoop up this Dyson vacuum while it’s being offered at a lower price. Its features include three separate cleaning modes and up to 60 minutes of runtime. It’s also fairly lightweight, making it easier to get the job done.

3. $6 off an 18-count of Orgain Plant-Based Protein Shake

If you follow a vegan diet and find yourself craving easy meals or snacks on the go, these chocolate-flavored shakes might fit the bill. They come packed with 20 grams of plant-based protein and contain no sugar, artificial colors, or sweeteners. They’re also gluten- and soy-free, and each serving contains 11 fluid ounces.

4. $4.50 off Bounty Prints Select-A-Size Paper Towels

Getting back to the whole cleaning theme, if you’re someone who takes their paper towels seriously, then you know Bounty is basically the gold standard when it comes to absorbance. You can now save on a 12-pack of select-a-size rolls, which give you the flexibility to tackle spills both minor and major.

5. $150 off the Lenovo IdeaPad 3 15.6″ Touchscreen Laptop

If you’re looking for a moderately priced laptop that won’t result in a ridiculous credit card tab, then this Lenovo model is worth trying out. It features a backlit keyboard and comes with Microsoft® Windows 11 Home. And when you buy this laptop at Costco, you’ll get a two-year warranty and free technical support.

A lot of people are trying to limit their spending this year as inflation continues to rear its ugly head. If that’s the case, then a new sofa purchase or laptop may not be in the cards. But you may want to consider loading up on things like paper towels while they’re available at a discount — especially if you have kids or pets at home who tend to make a mess.

It also pays to compare Costco prices online with what you see at your local warehouse store. In some cases, making your purchases in person will allow you to save even more money than shopping at Costco online.
