Costco

 

Newest Review: ... but check every price of what I buy and often is cheaper to stock up on special offer items in standard shops. Costco publish a discount 'passport' which list special offers at certain times. These can be outstanding. Some items half price, others such as meat and fish offered at severel £'s off the kilo price. They only take cash or debt cards, which can be a pain..... Then when finished shopping, there is a cafe. They sell jacket spuds for about £1.20, a drink and a massive hotdog for £1.40, and pizza slices (can't remember the price, but I always think its great value) We feed the 4 of us to the brink for about a fiver.....great!!... more

We shop at Costco for mainly big brand products which we would otherwise but at the supermarket-if you always buy the brand names and not supermarket own brands then Costco is much cheaper-for example Aerial washing powder tablets are particularly cheap compared to Tesco/Asda etc. However, if you but own brand products usually, you won't make much of a saving, if any. As other reviewers have said, the meat is good quality and reasonably priced. The bakery pastries and muffins are also good value and delicious! On the non-food side, it's great. Photo processing is unbeatably priced and the service quick, with lots of sizes, types available. The do canvas prints and ...

Ah... Costco. Coming from North of the border, I was used to Macro which was a bit of a mission to be honest. It is unfair to compare Costco and Macro as the service, size and choice, in Costco clearly knocks Macro to the ground! Some things you are better off buying in supermarkets, we were comparing washing powder/tablets/fabric conditioner. To buy the powder, they had a fantastic offer on both the branded Persil and the Costco own brand. (It's worth remembering that Costco 'own brand' is made in the same factory and using the same ingredients, so essentially the same product as a branded item) I am quite convinced their 'own brand' fabric ...
