Cruising with Costco Travel
My wife and I have cruised for many
years, but this was the first time we had compared prices with Costco Travel. For the same
ship, same suite and same sailing date, we
saved $713 over Holland America’s price, plus
received a $50 shipboard credit. The savings
included Costco Travel insurance.
We saved enough to pay for my Executive
membership for the next seven years.

Emergency preparedness
Your article on unique Costco members
[“The company you keep,” July 2011] was
great. One area you missed is the people who
like to be prepared for emergencies.
Costco.com and our local Costco warehouse provide us with everything we need:
water purification and desalinization kits,
duct tape, tarps, tools, vehicle roadside emergency kits, medical supplies, canned food,
dog food and the all-important toilet paper.
Eighty percent of my preparedness supplies
come from Costco, and at about one-third of
the price I would pay elsewhere.
