Nordic Ware Bundt Pan
Price: 39.98
A bundt pan is a necessity if you enjoy baking, but this 10-cup pan will turn your cake into a showpiece. Made of heavy cast aluminum with a nonstick coating, it bakes evenly and promises a beautiful unmolding.
It's a true kitchen splurge if you love making beautiful creations, like reviewer PWalker1123, who finds it "cute, dainty, and adorable."
Tramontina Charcuterie Board
Price: $14.98
November marks the start of entertaining, and this oversized 24-inch charcuterie board is handcrafted from teak for a beautiful finish that showcases your appetizers or desserts.
Teak is naturally durable and beautiful, rivaling the look of antique decorative boards that cost over $300 at Pottery Barn.
Member's Mark Holiday Entertainer Set
Price: $149.98
Speaking of entertaining, you'll be a star if you buy this 53-piece porcelain set that serves 10 for the holiday table. It has everything: dinner plates, bowls, cups, and serving platters that look far more expensive than they are.
Shoppers find it stunning and elegant, but also highly functional: "It's dishwasher and microwave safe; the prints are beautiful," writes reviewer Phone Holder.
NIGHT Anti-Aging Pillowcase
Price: $59.98
Silk pillowcases are the secret to fewer wrinkles and beautiful hair. This queen-sized two-pack offers spa-like quality, a self-care splurge that lets you look your best every morning.
Available in white and gun metal, these pillowcases are a better deal than a queen-sized Blissy pillowcase, selling for $49.99 at Target.
Member's Mark Comforter Set
Price: $49.96
You can't go wrong with this three-piece channel-faux-fur comforter set. It's plush and silky, with channel stitching, making your bed feel luxurious.
Shoppers adore it. "This is truly a luxury set from the look of the comforter to the feeling of pure bliss," gushes reviewer Love2shop.
Scotch Tape
Price: $6.98 (on sale from $9.98)
While tape may not qualify as a splurge, it sure comes in handy at Christmas time. If your old tape keeps tearing as you're wrapping gifts, stock up on this six-pack of Scotch Magic Tape, with smooth, invisible adhesion at an unbeatable price.
Just one three-meter roll of tape costs $3.39 at Target.
Member's Mark Praline Pecans
Price: $12.98
Want a treat that's sweet, buttery, and addictive? Try these praline pecans that work just as well for gifting, topping desserts, and snacking.
With two pounds on hand, you'll be set for the holiday season if you decide to keep this Southern-style treat to yourself.
Member's Mark Nutcracker Decor
Price: $29.98
If your budget allows, grab one of the most "in" decor buys of the season. This set of three nutcrackers and two bottle brush trees comes in red, metallic, and fun & bright colors.
In metallic, it looks high-end enough to rival the gold nutcracker bookends from Pottery Barn that cost $99.50.
NatureWell Hydrating Lip Mask
Price: $14.98 (on sale from $16.98)
Winter dryness is no joke, but it doesn't stand a chance against this trio of hydrating lip masks that use coconut oil and shea butter for long-lasting softness and comfort.
They come in three fruity flavors — mango, berry, and vanilla — good (and safe) enough to eat. Shoppers liken it to high-end brands: "Just like Laneige, just not as messy. I love it," writes reviewer Nikki.

Member's Mark Women's Shacket
Price: $13.98 (on sale from $17.98)
This half-shirt, half-jacket is the perfect middle ground for chilly November days. It has a sherpa lining that feels plush, and it's easy to layer.
It doesn't get better if you need a trendy, practical coat in festive colors for fireside lounging. On sale, Target sells a similar one for $34.99.
Member's Mark Icicle Lights
Price: $22.97
With a three-hundred-count, these icicle lights will turn your house into a winter wonderland. They're bright, energy-efficient LED lights, long enough for eaves or porches, and available in cool and warm white.
Try them if you like bright lights, like reviewer Great sleep, who put up theirs early to enjoy how "bright and sparkly" they are.
Baileys Lava Cake
Price: $13.86
For pure dessert luxury, try these eight rich, gooey Belgian chocolate lava cakes infused with Baileys flavor. Whether you pop one in the oven for a special evening like Thanksgiving or just to brighten up a long day, you'll love the restaurant-like taste.
The best way to have them is to share them with a group, like reviewer Lucinda enjoys theirs.
Decorative Harvest Candles
Price: $13.62 (on sale from $24.97)
These three soy-wax-blend, 10-ounce candles come in the most adorable ceramic jars.
Shaped like an acorn, mushroom, and pumpkin and scented with cozy fall fragrances like pumpkin spice, they're the perfect decor for your Thanksgiving table. Shoppers love them: "So cute, long burning, and nice aromatics," writes Pamela H.
DKNY Women's Fashion Coat
Price: $58.95
What about a stylish coat for your festive travel this season? This DKNY sleek designer coat looks and feels like it costs twice the price. It's easy to pair with dresses or jeans, making it a worthwhile wardrobe splurge right before Thanksgiving and Christmas.
