Costco Connection | October/November
ASSISTANT VICE PRESIDENT'S NOTE

Turn over a new leaf this season


Hello, October! It’s the month when Canadians’ minds start to wander toward preparing for holidays, entertaining family and friends and nestling in for the cold ahead.

After spending the summer barbecuing, we look forward to bringing the cooking back indoors with all the Canadian comfort foods we love. Check out some of the incredible food appliances we offer from SharkNinja. Or invite friends over for a raclette party. With the holidays around the corner, now is the perfect time to plan your family feasts. In this issue, you will find many ideas to make great food to share with family and friends.

If you are like me, you will have some people on your gift list for whom you just don’t know what to buy. In our Holiday Gift Guide, we deliver a range of suggestions to help you check items off your list. Take a look at our Home Electronics Special Section for the latest trends for the techies in your life.

As we wake to our first frost, we cannot help but look forward to visiting a sunny destination. One of my favourite memories is a trip my husband and I took with my parents to Key West, Florida. I can taste the Key lime pie now!

Perhaps a destination closer to home is on your bucket list. Regardless, Costco Travel offers a variety of memorable destinations for sun worshippers, snow bunnies and culture seekers.

So, grab your Canadian tuxedo (aka denim jacket and jeans) and get out and enjoy the beauty of fall.
