We all belong
I truly appreciated your cover photo of the July 2023 issue. The photo presents diversity and inclusivity (well, you did not have any 75-year-olds like me in it, but I will give you a pass). Pictures do matter and this one speaks volumes about Costco’s values.

Sustainable packaging
We appreciate that you are now packaging mixed nuts in bags. We were running out of ways to repurpose all of those plastic jars.

I strongly support your closer study of packaging to reduce waste and save resources. I find articles about Costco’s efficiencies such as the July issue’s Buying Smart [“Spotlight on packaging”] interesting and helpful.

Fun in Florida
In response to your July article on the Gulf Coast, I wanted to let you know that our family just spent a week in the Florida Keys. Every time a family member would admire something that one of us had, the response would be “I got it at Costco.” This got to be a joke by the end of the week because so many of our items were purchased there. Some of the highlights: bathing suits, beach towels, coolers, cooler bags, food, snacks, skorts, books, sunscreen, sunglasses and new tires for the truck to pull the boat.

In praise of Costco weddings
I really enjoyed the June issue’s cover story [“Weddings by Costco”] with your beautiful photos of wedding couples and the ideas and suggestions for having a wonderful wedding and honeymoon.
Every article was well done and full of good information!

Costco has Wildbrine kraut on sale. They just had an article [in the July issue] about Wildbrine in their magazine!
