October brings more than just autumn leaves and pumpkin spice—it delivers some seriously impressive deals on Costco's beloved Kirkland Signature products. If you're watching your budget while still wanting quality goods, this month's selections are particularly sweet. The October 2025 coupon book runs through October 19th, giving you time to take advantage of these stellar savings.
Whether you're stocking up on household essentials or treating yourself to some comfort items, these seven Kirkland deals are generating serious buzz among savvy shoppers. Let's dive into why these particular products have members calling them absolute jackpots.
1. Kirkland Signature Flex-Tech 13-Gallon Kitchen Trash Bags
Starting with the practical stuff, Kirkland Signature Flex-Tech 13-Gallon Kitchen Trash Bags are currently $14.99 after a $2 discount, and the 200-count box represents exceptional value for households of any size.
What makes these bags special isn't just the price. The Flex-Tech plastic allows the bags to expand around your trash, reducing tears and increasing holding capacity. For seniors dealing with arthritis or mobility issues, the gripping drawstring design is particularly helpful—it expands around the trash can rim and contracts to stay put, eliminating the frustration of bags falling into the can.
"I can't live without these trash bags! They don't smell like anything, they stretch so they don't easily rip, and they're just the right size so I can lift and throw them into the outdoor garbage bin all by myself."
2. Kirkland Signature Unisex Shearling Slippers
The return of Kirkland's faux-Ugg slippers has shoppers genuinely excited. At $31.99 online (and typically less in-store), the Kirkland Signature Unisex Shearling Slippers come in both men's and women's sizes, available in classic tan and black. Online orders benefit from a buy-three-save-$10 deal, making them perfect for gift giving or stocking up.
For those dealing with foot discomfort or circulation issues, these slippers offer genuine comfort without the premium brand price tag. The shearling lining provides warmth without overheating, and the sturdy sole means you can wear them for quick trips outside.

3. Kirkland Signature Ultra Clean HE Liquid Laundry Detergent
Kirkland's Ultra Clean HE Liquid Laundry Detergent continues to win converts from name brands. The 194-fluid-ounce container handles 146 loads and is currently discounted by an additional $3.60. For households doing multiple loads weekly, this represents significant annual savings.
Customer reviews consistently praise its stain-removing power and fresh scent, with many noting it performs as well as or better than premium brands. For seniors on fixed incomes, switching to this detergent can free up $50-100 annually for other necessities.
"This product is every bit as good as name brand competitors such as Tide! We have been Tide users for years and have found UltraClean removes stains well, freshens colors, and even smell much better than Tide."
4. Kirkland Signature Chicken Breast (Canned, 6-Pack)
The cult following around Kirkland's canned chicken breast becomes more understandable once you try it. Currently $3 off for the 12.5-ounce, 6-count package, this protein source offers convenience without sacrificing quality. Unlike many canned chicken products, reviewers consistently mention the absence of metallic taste and excessive sodium.

For seniors managing diabetes or heart conditions, this low-sodium, high-protein option works well for quick, healthy meals. The shelf stability means you can stock up during sales without worry about spoilage.
"Just delicious! Not salty, no canned metal taste, subtle and mild. I have tried 3 different brands and Kirklands surpasses the others."
5. Kirkland Signature Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Reddit users are buzzing about Kirkland Signature Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive Oil, currently on sale for $9.97. As one enthusiastic poster noted, "that's about half price," and experienced cooks are calling it "the best finishing oil out there for the price."
Quality olive oil typically costs $15-25 for similar quantities, making this deal particularly attractive for those who cook frequently. The Tuscan variety offers the robust flavor profile perfect for both cooking and finishing dishes.
6. Kirkland Signature Chicken Sausage (Parmesan & Cracked Black Pepper)
The newest addition to Kirkland's refrigerated section—Chicken Sausage with parmesan and cracked black pepper—has quickly gained a following. Shoppers appreciate both the flavor and value compared to name brands like Aidells or Amylu.
For seniors looking to reduce red meat consumption without sacrificing flavor, these chicken sausages offer a satisfying alternative that works in pasta dishes, breakfast scrambles, or grilled as a main course. "Much better than Amylu and different than Aidells—seem to be easier on my stomach," notes one Redditor.
7. Kirkland Signature Coffee Organic Pacific Bold K-Cup Pods
K-Cup users have particular reason to celebrate this month. Kirkland Signature Coffee Organic Pacific Bold K-Cup Pods, in the 120-count box, are $8 off regular price. Given that many seniors rely on single-cup brewing systems, this discount translates to meaningful savings.
The Pacific Bold blend earns consistent praise for delivering rich coffee flavor without the bitter aftertaste sometimes associated with dark roasts. At roughly 60 cents per cup after discount, it significantly undercuts both grocery store and coffee shop alternatives.
"I have tried many different K-cup coffees. Pacific Bold is the best!! It has a deep, rich coffee flavor without the bitterness you sometimes get with dark roast coffee."

Making the most of your membership
For Costco shoppers spending at least $230 monthly throughout the year, upgrading to Executive membership makes financial sense—the 2% reward certificate essentially pays for the membership fee. This is particularly relevant for seniors who may be consolidating more of their shopping at Costco for convenience and savings.
Remember that Costco offers price adjustments for most purchases made within 30 days if items go on sale. Keep your receipts and don't hesitate to ask for the difference back.
Smart shopping strategies
In-store prices typically run lower than online prices due to shipping and handling costs, so visiting the warehouse often provides better deals. However, for those with mobility concerns, the online option with free shipping on orders over $75 can still deliver solid value.
October Costco shopping success tips
- Shop in-store when possible for best prices
- Keep receipts for 30-day price adjustment policy
- Executive members get 2% back if spending $230+ monthly
- Current deals run through October 19th, 2025
- Consider bulk storage needs before purchasing large quantities
When buying in bulk, consider your storage space and usage patterns. While the per-unit savings are attractive, purchasing more than you can reasonably use defeats the purpose. For items like trash bags or K-Cups with long shelf lives, stocking up makes sense. For perishables, calculate realistic consumption rates.
