Great ‘What to Buy at Costco & Makro’ Hunt

Kyresa

Permission was GRANTED for Costco in Farnborough Hampshire - woohoooo! It was a bunch of old men sat round a table though that seemed to be more preoccupied with the fact that there would be two opticians if Costco came! Clueless!!

Nevertheless, the Chair told them that there was no good reason that the permission should be declined, and it wasn't!

In which case this could be the last thing they would need as well ....

The biggest complaint about it seems to be the cleaning, where it appears to be rather awkward and you need to be very dexterous around the blades to do it properly.

Comments about using "bottle brushes" and "paper towels" for the blades :eek:

MAKRO

TURKEY BUTTERFLY - £4.50 / kg - ranging from about 4kg to 7kg

Had one a couple of years ago and it was GREAT :j

Bought another on Monday and cooked it today

5.2 kg of Juicy BREAST ONLY (NO BONES AT ALL) for just over £23

Fed 32 happy diners and still about a quarter of it left.

Definitely value for money and very tasty it was too
