    I get my cake mix at the Costco in Sheffield
    I love a bargain and saving money! I don't have any debts and mortgage repaid in 2020

    The drums of veg oil hold 20 lts and cost £15-odd. I did see tubs of Onken but didnt notice the price, sorry. They ae handing out leaflets at the door full of offers on fresh food like meat & pies. I think it was3/4 weeks offers in one leaflet.

    anyone know how much clotted cream is at costco? Need enough for 50 scones.

    We bought a large tub in Bristol Costco a couple of weeks ago - comfortably handled 12 scones (Costco scones are great!) using less than a 3rd of the tub.

    Can't remember exact price but was under £3 - think around £2.40.

    We are members at Cosco and don't find them particularly cheap. We do however like the quality of food and always get our meat a fish there. We got a real bargain 3 years ago. We wanted a Which recommended Bosch vacume cleaner and everywhere had sold out. We managed to find them at Costco at £50 less that anywhere else had been offering so we ended up buying 9 of them and made enough profit selling them on ebay that ours cost us nothing and I think we got a nice meal out for the family as well
