Fall is just around the corner and you may be leaning toward scents like pumpkin, but Trader Joe’s Peach Black Tea Candle can add a different scent to the mix and still smell wonderfully festive.

Since Trader Joe’s added the Home, Bath & Beauty category to its annual Customer Choice Awards voting, these seasonally scented candles always win the top prize. Buy them fast, as they’re only available for a limited time—but don’t worry: Trader Joe’s will most likely be releasing another seasonal scent soon.

Cotton kitchen towels with waffle pattern

The product information states: “Kaizen is of Japanese origin and is a philosophy of continuous improvement – constant change for the better. At Trader Joe’s, our commitment to Kaizen ensures that our business and our products are the best they can be for our customers.”

Thus was born the Waffle Weave Cotton Kitchen Towels, a new line of 100% cotton kitchen towels. Get a set of three for less than $10 including tax and you’ll be thankful the next time there’s a spill.

Reusable silicone food storage bags

Food waste is a problem, and nobody likes it. What’s the solution? Of course, Trader Joe’s reusable silicone food storage bags. With school starting back up and lunches being sent away, you want to make sure the food you pack stays fresh, even if it doesn’t get eaten and ends up being taken home.

Trader Joe’s cares about quality, which is why these sustainable bags are made from the highest quality food-grade platinum silicone. They’re also microwave, freezer, and dishwasher safe, so you can store and clean any food you want in them. Plus, there are three sizes to choose from.

Liquid detergent

In 2006, Trader Joe’s launched its lavender-scented liquid laundry detergent. At the time, it was one of the few “eco-friendly” liquid laundry detergents available to shoppers.

Now, in 2024, it’s the must-have for all your laundry needs at home. It uses stain-fighting enzymes combined with essential oils and coconut-based surfactants, and is the perfect laundry companion. Looking for a tough stain detergent that doesn’t contain dyes or chemical fragrances – for under $12? Then look no further than Trader Joe’s.
