I've worked at Costco for 21 years. Here are 7 of the best things I'm seeing on shelves right now.

As a longtime employee, I think the Soules Kitchen street-taco steak is one of the best things to get at Costco right now.

This month, I'm celebrating 21 years as a Costco employee. Over the years, I've really enjoyed seeing the new products that hit the shelves, from seasonal decor to yummy meals.

Here are seven items that caught my eye this month.

Customers at my store have been loving the Dash family-size skillet.

At my Costco store, the 14-inch Dash family-size skillet has been a popular item. This large, versatile skillet is perfect for making one-pot meals, pasta dishes, soups, and more.

Plus, the ceramic nonstick design makes for easy cleanup.

Get a head start on Halloween decor with the Brentwood Originals pillows.

Halloween may still be a few months away, but Costco is always ahead of the game with its decor.

I fell in love with the Brentwood Originals decorative pillows, which come in a variety of Halloween-inspired designs like a haunted house, black cat, fuzzy pumpkin, and skeletons.

The Rapid-Off fire blanket is a great item to keep in your home or car.

In my opinion, you can never be too prepared when it comes to fire safety. That's why the Rapid-Off fire blankets caught my eye.

These heavy-duty blankets, made from flame-retardant fiberglass, are great to have on hand for putting out small household fires. Each box comes with two blankets, which are great for keeping at home or bringing to outdoor barbecues and camping trips.

Indoor cats will love the Kitty City catio kit.

If you have an indoor cat that loves spending time in the sun, it may be worth checking out the Kitty City catio kit, which is designed to provide cats a safe space for outdoor play.

I love that it has lots of spots for them to play and hide, and it even comes with a few balls and a three-month supply of catnip.

The Soules Kitchen street-taco steak caught my eye.

The Soules Kitchen street-taco steak seems like a quick and convenient lunch or dinner option. The fully cooked steak comes with a smoky salsa roja sauce packet, which adds an instant burst of flavor to the meat.

It can be ready within minutes on the stovetop or in the microwave, and each package contains enough meat to make 16 tacos.

Get ready for school with these chic Adidas backpacks.

Depending on where you live, back-to-school season is either here or just around the corner. And luckily, Costco has stylish Adidas backpacks in five colorways — black, dark gray, pink, purple, and blue.

Each bag has three zippered pockets, a spot for a laptop, and side pockets that can fit a water bottle.

The Eat-in spinach, feta, and sundried tomato wraps remind me of a similar offering from Starbucks.

Veronica Thatcher

I'm always looking for quick and easy meals, which is why I was drawn to the Eat-In spinach, feta, and sundried-tomato wraps.

Each wheat lavash is packed with cage-free egg whites, spinach, feta, sun-dried tomatoes, and cream cheese. They're easy to heat up in the air fryer or microwave.
