    I have heard that Costco is the best place to buy coffee pods for the Dolce Gusto machine. Does anyone know how much cheaper they are than supermarkets? They are approx £3.50 per box in Tesco/Sainsburys etc. Thanks.

    Thanks, will try to pop over this weekend to get some. I want the non-milk ones - espresso / americano / lungo - hopefully they stock these too.

    Mmmm...... One of my favourite Costco items.
  • Just joining this thread - Costco is my favourite shop on the "high street" or "industrial estate" in their case.

    It'll be useful to get emails about what IS a good deal at Costco and what isn't.
    For what it's worth we always get loads of Covent Garden Soup (big packs 1 litre for 1.39 I think) and the great big crates of tangerines.

    Delicious :)

    Relative newbie and went this weekend for the first time with my calculator:

    3 pork joints for £9- (roasted one yesterday and excellent quality as you'd expect)

    Stamps- 10 packs for £22.99 (saving of 16p per pack of 6 (£2.30 as opposed to £2.46) which will increase to 46p per pack of 6 when the stamp price increases in April).

    Persil non-bio liquid- £10.78 for 66 washes (usually £5 for 20 washes in standard supermarket size)
