Can't get your hands on the viral Costco Halloween blankets? Try these alternatives

Costco can be a treasure trove of surprising delights, from baked goods to seasonal decor, like this Halloween embroidered throw that began selling out earlier this summer. Since you need a membership to shop at Costco, this viral blanket is out of reach for many — not to mention members whose stores are out of stock. To get into the spooky spirit, my fellow shopping editors and I scoured the internet to find similar blankets and home decor at other retailers. Featuring an adorable ghost, pumpkin or black cat pattern, Costco's $18.99 faux fur blanket measures 60 inches by 70 inches. One restock reportedly sold out in just three days, according to Costco Buzz, a social media account that tracks Costco finds — and this was back in July. As we get closer to Oct. 31, the pursuit of these spooky throws will likely become even more intense. If you can't find 'em at your local store, try similar options at Amazon and Walmart. Neither retailer requires a paid membership — and I even found a pillow cover doppelgänger.
