kidley Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 The quality of Costco stuff is second to none. If people want cheep stuff then use home bargains or b&m There is quite a few of T.V surveys done on food and household goods that would disagree with you. I think i would be correct in thinking that HP source in Costco is no different (except in price) to HP source in Asda or any other foodstuff.

I know the Kirkland wash tablets are US Tide, so really good laundry tablets, and not a brand you can find in the UK. Their own vodka is actually Grey Goose and about £8 cheaper and gives you twice as much as the Grey Goose Costcos own gas is really good, but only a deal if you live near by and or shop their regularly.

Kirkland stuff is a us supplier which supplies all costco's and generally good quality. Looking forward to trying there diesel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hesther Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 I have been a few times with a relative. I find the time spent in the queues unacceptable. Especially, when 3 or 4 tills are shut and when you are having to pay for the privilege. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starlc Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 A few things are ok at cosco but dont think the value is that good like for like with other warehouses, Also having to pay a yearly membership is the nail in the coffin for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Wallace* Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 HP source Eeee Kidley two senior moments in one day go and have a lie down and put yer readers on next time and a big cardi it's chilly I agree Costco Kirkland is pretty damn good sounds weird but once you have tried their kitchen rolls there's no going back. I will certainly use the petrol station when it's up and running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheff71 Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Just renewed there for another year this week, as the cost of membership is quickly made back compared to buying the items in supermarkets - obviously those items that are dearer than the supermarkets (e.g. a lot of the alcohol) we would get from the supermarket instead! It's interesting that they would bring in a petrol station, with the recent addition of the Asda Handsworth filling station nearby (and probably the lowest prices in the area currently), especially if limited to members only. It does promise to be high quality fuel, so it's good to hear they're also competitively priced too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
