Where to buy straw hat for beach vacation?

I am wondering where people buy a straw hat for a beach vacation. Vacation is in October and I need 3 straw hats for the family. Not looking to spend too much. Costco? Banana Republic or the like? Or somewhere else?

I second this. If you are going to some place like Cuba or Mexico, it will be cheaper and better quality and you will only need to carry it one way.

Amazon has a lot of choices or just buy one when you get there ... should be cheap if you're going to a poorer locale.

Going to Turks and Caicos probably will be more expensive there. I will check out Dollarama. Thanks guys!

If you buy them here, wear them on the plane. I do - winter and summer. Unless they are crushable and can go in your suitcase - but from the price point you are looking at it is unlikely. Crushable straw hats are very expensive - and I do not mean $10.00. You might also want so see what the "straw" is made from. I believe it was Becks who was annoyed that so many of the hats that appeared to be made of straw were actually made of paper that was given the appearance of straw.

There was one at Holt Renfrew. Price was "cheap" for Holt's - the cost of the paper straw hat was $100. I was appalled - actually so was the staff who hadn't checked.
