    If anyone gets a chance, would you mind posting what the offers are at Costco for the next week or so. I don't receive the booklet as it only goes to the primary card holders! Cheers.


    Any really good deals anyone?
  • Help please!

    Just bought the massive 'lasts forever' Kirkland washing powder.

    However, despite emptying the contents and checking (no mean feat I can tell you!) the scoop is missing...

    Could some kind soul out there spare a minute and tell me approx how many tea/tablesppons one scoop is please?

    Thank you thank you thank you....

    35ml to the first line

    75ml to the top line.

    I have a little pot with a mark at 35ml with nail varnish as really can't see the lines on official scoop too easily.

    I shop there quite often and always stock up on milk which is cheaper and often the dishwasher tablets are on offer. Bagels work out a lot cheaper and I have purchased loads of their birthday cakes.

    when I get it back will post it tomorrow but this time all the vouchers last a month which is good :-D

    Agree it's great that the vouchers last a month - but at ours (Chingford) they are now requiring you to actually have the voucher whereas before they didn't...not an issue, I had mine with me, but the cashier told me that this was the way it was going to be from now on - no voucher, no discount.

    No idea if that is true or if it's something they are trying.
    Does remembering a time that a certain degree of personal responsibility was more or less standard means that I am officially old?

    Same in Bristol, but they have piles of vouchers at both entrance and the checkouts.

    This is not true they have scans of all the vouchers on the tills.

    Secondly they cannot charge you more for something they are advertising for less.

    I try to use the same couple of individuals on the tills and get to know them - that way you get very few problems

    I would take their name and complain - I do know that they had problems on Monday (at Chingford) with the codes not registering automatically - a technical glitch.

    At Milton Keynes they operate the no voucher no special offer. I've noticed they had removed the bar codes from the tills.

    surely the offer price is dependent on T & C, one of the terms being that you provide a voucher for your purchase.
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.
