Costco's Pretty New Beverage Tubs Will Be the Hit of Any Summer Party

Get ready to fall in love with Costco's newest summer essential. The retailer has always known exactly how to get customers pumped about the changing season, but their latest buy really is a home run.

That's because this beverage tub looks way more expensive than what the big box store is charging for it, which makes it feel like we're getting away with something every time we use it.

And use it we will, because this party staple is going to be pulled out every time we have company over the summer. Take a look at why we're so in love and then add a trip to Costco to your to-do list so you can get your hands on one for yourself!

Thank you to @costcohotfinds for always putting these great products on our radar. This Hammered Beverage Tub by Laurie Gates looks like a luxe high-end boutique buy and not a $24.99 Costco score, which is why everyone is going to be putting one of these in their shopping carts next time they hit up the store.

As with most product recommendations, we went through the comments to see if anyone had any feedback about the tub yet, and we were surprised to see a lot of complaints. It looks like users need to beware when putting ice directly into the beverage bucket because the metal condensates quickly, causing water to pool on whichever surface you put this on.

That's obviously not such a bad thing if you're putting it outside, but a really important thing to consider when using it indoors or on wood surfaces.

We also saw some smart suggestions for how to repurpose this for those who love the look but don't need a beverage tub, with quite a few folks saying they turned their purchases into outdoor planters!

Costco Has Great Summer Finds

You know you're going to head to the store to check this one out in person, so while you're there you should take a peek at some of the other products people can't stop gushing over this season.

For example, Costco has a travel wagon that is a must-have for your beach and pool excursions . And speaking of the pool, the big box store also has a dupe of everyone's favorite Bogg Bag , which is basically the best tote you can have if your plans include going anywhere that you could get wet!

Get Yourself a Beverage Tub for Summer Entertaining

Even knowing that this tub can get messy we still think it makes a great buy for all that summer entertaining, especially if you're using it outside. And, worst case scenario, if you realize you don't exactly like it after you buy it you can always use it as a planter instead!
