Costco - Scarborough

I discovered that finding souvenirs in Toronto was not as simple as I had hoped. Everywhere I looked, shops were selling the same maple syrup. However, when I visited Costco, I found a wide variety of snack options that made for excellent gift ideas. They came in small bags within large boxes, perfect for sharing with colleagues, friends, and family. The prices were also quite reasonable, making my shopping experience much more convenient. Keep in mind that you need a membership to shop at Costco. If you are a visitor, you may need to find a friend who can use their membership card on your behalf.

The special hot dog at Costco is unmatchable. It is affordable, delicious, and a perfect remedy for a hangover. However, the store and parking lot can be overwhelming. The long lines and chaotic parking situation are a testament to their popularity. Despite these drawbacks, the customer service is excellent. I have to give it an average rating due to the frustration, but I couldn't resist indulging in their hot dog special. I opted out of waiting in the endless line for gas, as I would have needed an ample supply of hot dogs and drinks to pass the time.

Compared to the US this Costco has a ton of different products and food court options. They do not except Visa, only Mastercard. The store was packed and a little hard to get through with all the people. The food took a while to get but it was worth the wait.

I am very pleased with the care and professional service of Ms. Kristen Mitchell, as she is giving me for a last few years. Tony Peniak, M. Sc.
