Costco Connection | September
ASSISTANT VICE PRESIDENT'S NOTE

Here's to a super September

Happy September, everyone! Summer has gone by in a heartbeat, and fall has snuck up on us once again.

As the cooler weather brings us indoors, it may be time to consider buying a new kitchen range. “Let’s get cooking” will help you navigate the ever-evolving appliance world. Wi-Fi-enabled ranges connect to your home’s network and allow you to control and monitor the range via an app from wherever you are.

Fall is also a good time to reset your personal health. “Getting in rhythm” explains how to manage the heart disorder known as atrial fibrillation, or A-fib. It will help you identify risk factors and triggers, and we all know that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Who can think about Costco without thinking about its private label, Kirkland Signature™? The name brings to mind not only great food items, such as the Kirkland Signature Spanish Extra Virgin Olive Oil highlighted in this issue’s cover story, but also many great non-food items. My favourite Kirkland Signature item is the golf putter. I also use Kirkland Signature golf gloves and balls on the course, and I get great feedback from Costco members who have Kirkland Signature in their golf bag too.

So, as the weather cools and you get out to enjoy fall’s rays of sunshine, don’t forget to pick up a few Kirkland Signature items to enjoy. Your new favourite is just waiting to be discovered!

Coming next month

  • Our cover story will look at Costco’s efforts to reduce food waste in communities across Canada.
