    New booklet arrived today with offers from 2nd August until 29th August. Have posted prices where listed

    I've just joined Costco - do all members get these vouchers booklets or is it only the trade members? Do you get one every month?

    I noticed this last time we went to Birmingham - I forgot to hand over some vouchers but noticed the deductions were still made - very happy!

    Anyone know how much the 330ml diet coke cans are (30 pack I think with or without the 15% discount at the mo) and also the Fairy 5l liquid? Countrywide have 5 litre Arial Actilift for £10.71 so wondering which was better.

    Does anyone know if Costco are selling the Dyson bladeless desk fans (called Dyson Air Multipliers)?

    I was in our local Costco last week and they definatly had them, can;t help you on the price though.
    Just ring your local store they will check stock and tell you the price

    Hiya,
    They definitely had Dyson fans in there a couple of weeks back, but I have been in a couple of times since and haven't seen them, either in MK or Reading.
    Someone please correct me if i'm wrong!

    A quick Google finds another forum where someone bought these in Costco for £141 on 23rd June 2010.

    Doesn't say that this is plus VAT but could be at that price I suppose.
    Think they are supposed to be £199 rrp

    Doesn't mention either whether this is the 10" or the 12" version

    On another note .. are you sure you want one ?
    Understand that the high speed "normal" fan in the base can be VERY NOISY !

    Was in on Saturday - looked like the 10" one as I walked past it. Didn't notice the price - sorry.

    Was in Costco this afternoon - none to be seen anywhere - so asked at CS.

    It's quite possible that these didn't make it into every store from the answers I got.

    According to some "warehouse status" it is "pending/awaiting deletion"

    Wherever it is still available it should be £138.99 +vat = £163.31

    Just want to share:

    In my local paper today there was a public notice:

    COSTCO public exhibition to discuss proposals for a new Costco in Farnborough Hampshire!

    WOOHOOO.... Much nearer than Reading! I can feel my bank account emptying already!!

    I dont know if this helps, but we had the Costco people at work on Monday and I asked them about the Farnborough store. They said that it's scheduled for early next year - all the land has been bought, just needs to be built!!

    Woohoo ... Think I may as well mainline my account to them then! (Reading is waay too far away for me!!)
    I wish I was a glow worm, a glow worm's never glum
    Cos how can you be gloomy, when the sun shines out your bum? :D
