Which is the best Cash & Carry - Booker, Costco or Macro

I have a small business and times are tight for everyone of course. I was thinking of joining a Cash & Carry to stock up for Christmas but which is the best one?

Or (as a few people have told me) am I better off just sticking with supermarkets and looking for discounts.

  • It depends on what products you sell. Why not visit them & see which best suits your needs. Although you won't be able to purchase anything unless you become a customer they will all let you have a look around without committing to anything so you can see what they stock & how much they charge for it, you might get a brief sales pitch from them to encourage you to sign up but that's it. Once you have seen all three you can make your mind up which if any would suit you.

    well the few people are correct when it comes to bookers at least, used to be called Nerdin and Peacocks years ago going back to when i was 8 and my dad used to take me to get the stock for his shop, some items could have been bought cheaper from tesco's, asda, etc than bookers.
    cant say much about costco or macro not close enough to warrant me going to either of them.

    Bookers is free to join so if I was you I would join that anyway! I find they're really good for meat. Costco is good, although I think you have to know your prices as often the supermarkets are cheaper. They.re meat is good, although not cheap. Not had any experience of Makro though.
