We also love Costco. We shop at the Cardiff one which has recently opened. Not sure if that is the reason but from September to Christmas eve they had a perfumes counter in our Costco offering huge savings, got Calvin Klein - Truth £21.99 for 100ML bottle and its the Parfum not eau-de-toilette. Also go Oscar de la Renta - Oscar parfum for Mum as christmas present £28.99 for 200ML bottle! - Bargain. Saw the same 2 bottles in The Perfume Shop for £39.99 and £49.99 respectively only a week later. Love their instore bakery stuff however due to work commitments can never get there on a saturday and during the week untill 6pm ish so we miss the samples - oh well. Love cost-co though. ramble over. heehee:rotfl:

Just bought a pair of Bolle Anaconda (10339 shiny black) sunglasses for £30. Best web price is nearly twice that.

Can you get your NHS eye test done at Costco, or do they just dispense prescriptions?

Yes, you can get free eye tests although paid-for tests only cost £10. My impression, having had Costco tests for many years, is that they do a very good job testing. My wife also rates their contact lens consultations which are also just £10. What they can't do is handle NHS vouchers so if you have a child you'll be better off using a high street optician to take advantage of the vouchers.

Does anyone know if Costco (especially the MK store) sell items like large garden games (giant jenga, quoits etc) and the rough prices? Thanks all

Hi
I was in the MK store last week and didn't see anything like that. They had a great splash pool though (like a mini swimming pool) for around £23 (inc VAT).

The Kirkland Coffee beans and ground coffee is Starbucks if you check the packing but less than half the cost so great value.
