It's not hard to spend $100 at Costco, especially if it's been awhile since you've stocked up on its Kirkland Signature products. In fact, I'm impressed with anyone who can leave Costco with a bill that's under $100, unless, of course, they only visited the food court.

That said, Costco is frequently running promotions and sales that can give you more value for your $100. So if you're looking for the best way to spend your hard-earned Benjamin at your local warehouse, here are five popular Costco products selling right now for under $100.

1. MLB tickets

Fans of MLB baseball can buy tickets at great prices through Costco . Often, Costco will sell you two tickets in a general section area, like a lower level or mezzanine, for under $99.99.

While it doesn't sell tickets for every team, it currently sells them for 14 teams -- almost half the MLB teams (30). For example, you can currently buy two main level tickets to see the Yankees for $99.99 or two tickets to see the Kansas City Royals for $34.99.

2. Air fryer oven

If you're in the market for an air fryer, check out Costco's Sur La Table 13-Quart Air Fryer Oven for $99.99. The air fryer comes with a typical frying basket, plus two trays if you want to fry different food separately. The same air fryer sells for $154.99 on Amazon, while a Sur La Table air fryer with five quarts of basket space sells for $49.99 at Target.

3. Gift cards

Costco gift cards are one of its best deals. Many of its gift cards are valued at $100, but cost 10% to 30% below that price. To give you an idea of its variety, here are a few gift card packages you can buy on its website:

4. Contact lenses (dailies)

Costco has one of the best deals on daily contact lenses -- the Kirkland Signature™ Daily Disposable 90-pack. These lenses sell for about $59 per box. For comparison, you can buy Acuvue Oasys dailies at CVS for about $120 per box or Dailies AquaComfort for $89.99 per box.

What's more, Costco is currently offering a discount of $45 when you purchase four boxes or $110 off when you purchase eight. Those discounts, coupled with its already low prices, makes this one of the best deals on contact lenses that you'll find.

5. Emergency meals

No matter what life throws at you, the Mountain House Emergency Meal Kit will ensure that you're not hungry -- at least for three to five days. This emergency meal kit comes with 15 just-add-water pouches of beef stroganoff, scrambled eggs, chicken and dumplings, lasagna, and granola. Great for taking along on a hiking adventure or having on hand in case of emergency.

These are just a few great Costco deals under $100. But there are plenty more. Check out costco.com for more great deals. And if you're not already using one of the best credit cards for Costco , check out our list to help you save even more.
