What's a good deal at Makro?

I'm going to Makro at the weekend to stock up on tea bags for work. the last bag has lasted a whole year so i've done well with them!!
I usually get fabric conditioner and laundry liquid but I still have quite a bit of that left.
I just wondered if anyone else I should lookout for? They always have toilet rolls in the entrance. Not sure what the deals are like.
Any other tips?

    I don't think Makro are cheap. We went in just before Christmas and walked out again pretty sharpish.

    Im not sure about Makro as i havent been there in a long time, but i do go to costco.

    We find that toilet rolls, tea bags, baked beans and meat is a good buy

    Know your supermarket prices before buying anything in makro! Mainstays for me when on offer are Cushelle and Plenty, oh and pampers but only on offer. Laundry detergent and conditioner are by far cheaper for brands at makro. The nilco range of cleaning products is excellent.

    Nothing cheap in Makro, just bulk buy and you end up with loads of stuff that you didn't really need, and usually supermarkets are cheaper if you are a savvy shopper.

    Comfort fabric conditioner when on offer is good value.
