    Thanks for letting me know. It is £109, I ended up buying one.

    Can you share your experience with it please?

    Went to Reading Costco today. All the Christmas stuff is out.... lots of chocolates and goodies! Got a lovely Aussie Miracle gift bag (3 items which come in a really nice purple bag) which was about £9.

    I also picked up an "ion discover keyboard" for approximately £24 inc VAT.

    Here it is at John Lewis: Ion Discover Keyboard Nice price difference :D Have installed it and it's working fine. There is an "octave" button on it so you get the higher octaves, you're not limited to the two you see on the keyboard. It's going to be great on my Mac with garageband too!

    We are getting married next year and want to buy some cheese wheels, do Costco do them?

    I have let my membership lapse due to not having the money to buy in bulk, but if they are cheaper at Costco, I will go there and get them!

    TIA!
    Married the absolute love of my life on Sunday May 6th and I couldnt be happier!!!

    MAKRO mail starts today has some silentnight mattresses - picked one up last night (offer usually begins early, kingsize for £200 plus vat and its miracoil and partial memory foam. Very comfortable; can't afford a really expensive mattress and this is a good alternative.
  • Just a wee word of warning to people looking at the Tower of Treats in Costco, there is a cake in the bottom of the tower and I noticed that lots of the towers were in disarray and upon looking closer, I noticed that a few of the cakes were mouldy.

    HTH FiFi :)

  • I'm going to Costco this weekend :j first time in absolutely ages because we only get to go very occasionally when a friend of ours goes and we use her card at the checkout but pay for our own stuff.

    I'm hoping to get those Borghese makeup brushes! Finally and other stuff! Pity is we'll only have an hour or less to look :( I like to take my time when i'm there but am time limited as am only going as a guest. Saturday is also the busiest day but it's still nice to go once in a while.

    By the way, i've just looked at the new coupon book http://addictedtocostco.com/2011/09/21/costco-uk-coupon-book-september-19-october-9-2011/ and it has some quite good deals.

    The Brita Maxtra cartridges are on offer.. I remember someone asked about those a while back. I'm gonna be sure to write a list!

    Anyone want me to try and check to see the price of any items or if they are in stock? :)

    I would be grateful if you could check the price of stage 1 baby newborn formula. I think they do SMA and I *hope* that we stock the Kirkland ones in the UK too. Thank you x

    I quite fancy the crockpot, does anyone have that model already? (5.7 litre saute version I think it is?0

    Also the pepsi offer is on the new smaller sized cans not 330ml, nearly got caught out with that yesterday plus I noticed they have Kirkland mineral water in smaller sports cap bottles now too, these are slightly more expensive than the normal screw cap ones but will be perfect for lunchboxes.

    Shearling boots in MK but nearly all were size 4!
  • Could anyone tell me if its possible to use other product specific coupons at Costco, eg I have a £1 off coupon for any Persil Non Bio product - would costco accept it??
  • Thanks :) I suspected as much but wasnt sure, makes sense now!
