Even though I've been working at Costco for two decades, I still get excited to see the new items that come into the warehouse.

This month, the store is stocked with everything from chic luggage sets to outdoor-entertaining essentials. Here are seven items that caught my eye.

The Calpak 8-piece luggage set has everything you need to stay organized while traveling.

If you're prepping for summer travel, I recommend checking out this eight-piece luggage set from Calpak.

It includes everything you need to stay organized while traveling — a 28-inch suitcase, a 20-inch carry on, three packing cubes, a laundry bag, a shoe bag, and a luggage tag.

I love that the roller bags have 360-degree spinning wheels, which make it easy to transport the bags through the airport. Plus, the set is on sale for $30 off until July 19.

Costco superfans will love these reusable shopping bags.

Costco's four-pack of reusable shopping bags is perfect for fans of the warehouse.

Decorated with some of Costco's most popular items, like the famous $1.50 hot dog and bakery items, these durable bags are great for grocery shopping or everyday use. There's even a spot to hold a bottle inside.

Plus, they're easy to fold for compact storage.

The Upper Cut snack pack is a great way to get your protein in.

The Upper Cut tapas snack pack is like a mini charcuterie board with white-cheddar cheese, crackers, salami, and dark-chocolate-covered cranberries.

It's great if you're looking for a protein-packed lunch or a quick on-the-go snack.

Illuminate your space with the Infinity X1 wireless lights.

Although this product is called an under-cabinet light, it can be used in closets, pantries, office spaces, or anywhere that could benefit from better illumination.

Each box comes with three Infinity X1 wireless rechargeable lights that are easy to install. There's also a remote that allows you to adjust the lights to your desired color temperature.

Instead of going to the drive-thru, I like to pick up a box of Bolthouse Farms mocha cappuccinos.

The ready-to-drink Bolthouse Farms mocha cappuccinos can be found in the refrigerated section at Costco.

Made with Arabica coffee, rich cocoa, and milk, this is the perfect grab-and-go solution for busy days.

The Excello Global Products pole set makes it easy to hang string lights.

Nothing screams summer quite like a backyard decorated in string lights. However, they can be tricky to hang without the right equipment.

Luckily, the Excello Global Products poles are easy to stick in the ground or mount on a deck. The set comes with all the brackets and screws needed for installation.

However, keep in mind the lights are sold separately.

The Ryl Co. iced teas are the perfect summer treat.

If you're looking for a refreshing summer drink without loads of sugar or calories, you might want to pick up a pack of The Ryl Co. iced teas.

Each variety pack comes with 15 cans of iced tea in raspberry, Rocket Pop, and Southern sweet tea flavors.
