Canada Travel Shopping List: What should you buy when traveling abroad?

Recommended Canadian must-buy list:

1. Costco cosmetics: Made in the United States. The brands and products of Costco cosmetics are different in each store. Generally speaking, the brands are: The prices of high-end domestic brands such as Arden, Clarins, Shiseido, Estee Lauder, and SK2 are half or more than those in China. It is recommended to go to the local Costco, maybe you can buy a surprise!

2. Costco’s 3M Scotch Lint Roller: sticky roller, made in Mexico, suitable for white-collar workers in China who wear formal attire to work, and at home. Cat and dog owners. There is nothing so easy to use in China. Occasionally, you can buy the same product from Taobao, but the price is three to four times the price here.

3. Costco’s chocolate: nuts and dried fruits Costco’s chocolate (produced in Europe and Canada), nuts (produced in the United States, including almonds, walnut kernels, hazelnut kernels, pistachios, cashews, etc.), dried fruits ( Produced in Thailand and the Philippines), cookies (produced in Belgium and Denmark). You can buy it from domestic Taobao, but be prepared to pay double to triple the price.

4. American ginseng and Korean ginseng health products: You can’t buy them at Costco. You have to go to Wal-Mart and London Drugs to find them. I always bring bottled ginseng health supplements instead of unprocessed American ginseng. This makes it easy to control the dosage and avoid problems. It is said that there are some ginseng farms in BC that can be shipped directly to all of Canada and even North America.

5. Brand-name sportswear and sneakers: Pay attention to the area you are returning to. In first-tier cities, people basically know all the big international brands. In second- and third-tier cities and below, it is best to limit sales to Nike and Adidas. In Edmonton, when buying such products, you should start paying attention to the special prices one year before returning home. Take jackets for example. In March every year, there are many styles and special prices, and the discounts are very heavy. The places that are suitable for buying this kind of stuff in Aicheng include: Sears outlet (in the millwood town center mall) which is very cheap but has few styles. Sport Mart is very cheap and has many styles and special prices. Sportchek has many styles and often has special prices. Winners is suitable. I regularly go shopping for goods at Nike outlets and adidas outlets, which are relatively expensive and not much better.
