As a Costco employee of 19 years, I always look forward to scanning the shelves for exciting new products.
This month, the warehouse is carrying lots of great items for spring, including tasty treats and fun outdoor accessories.
Here are nine items I recommend checking out this May.

The Chocovia Dubai-style chocolates have been popular both in-store and on social media. The creamy milk chocolate tastes great with the pistachio and kadaif crunch.
At my store, I've noticed lots of people coming in specifically to buy this item. When we first started stocking the chocolates, they sold out within two days.

This CleverMade foldable tote bag is great for a variety of things, including picnics, sporting events, laundry, and shopping.
The foldable tote bag can hold up to 75 pounds and comes on wheels that swivel 360 degrees, making it easy to maneuver.

Meal prepping can be hard when you're short on time. Luckily, though, the Costco deli section always has delicious new premade items to try.
This month, the chicken and salami sandwiches caught my eye. Served with a side of tortellini pasta salad, the sandwiches are topped with tomatoes and Swiss cheese. They also come with a packet of Dijon mayonnaise.

The rechargeable Ion Luma Duo lantern speakers are great for outdoor entertaining.
These waterproof lanterns have eight different LED light modes and are a stylish way to add some music to any get-together.

The newest seasonal item in the Costco bakery is the strawberry streusel cheesecake.
The rich cheesecake filling is surrounded by a sweet graham cracker crust and topped with layers of strawberry and buttery streusel crumbs. In my opinion, it's a dessert that will definitely leave you wanting seconds.

Nothing screams spring like bird watching, and with this solar-powered smart bird feeder, you can keep an eye on your feathered friends even when you're not home.
The bird feeder has a camera that connects to an app, so you can easily view and record high-definition videos of the local birds from anywhere.

Costco carries the L'Oreal Paris Lumi Glotion in several shades to give you that perfect warm-weather glow.
It can be used as a primer, a bronzer, or even as a highlighter. Each package comes with two tubes of this versatile product.

Whether you're looking for a way to store items at home or something to help you transport beach toys, the Coho pack-and-carry box seems like a great solution.
It even comes with two storage trays to keep all your items organized.

This month, Costco is carrying an at-home version of Plinko, the game featured on "The Price is Right." The game can be used inside or outdoors and folds up nicely for compact storage.
