Costco Membership

Hello
I made an enquiry to Costco today about membership criteria.This is their reply, which I thought I'd share here:


Individual Membership - Valid to certain employment groups - details listed
below. You will need to bring in your latest payslip or professional
qualification plus a current home utility bill or bank statement. The
annual cost is £25 plus VAT inc. free Spouse Card. An additional card can
be purchased at a cost of £12 plus VAT, but it must be someone aged over 18
residing at the same address, of which you must provide proof. This can be
done either in writing or in person at the warehouse. A photograph can be
done on the Additional Cardholder's first visit to the warehouse.
