    If you dont know you need a trade card to go into Makro
    .
  • yep i did, but you can go for one day and apply for a day pass for a small fee!
    think its currently 50p at the mo.

    You could also go with someone who has got a trade card??

    Mr.VAT wants his cut of the action, so you'll have to add 17.5% to the prices.

    ...and, as it's a trade-only outfit, the Sale of Goods Act doesn't apply. But for genuine traders or "serious" shopping it's great :o
    Can I help?

    You need to re-read my question I was commenting on the bit I quoted, The day pass!!
    .
  • Dont you need to own a business to get the trade card? I dont own a business so I could'nt go in there.

    You do need a "business" there used to be some exceptions such as government workers or something like that but I can't remember exactly what or if they still apply. To be a business all you you need is a letterhead & two invoices to your "company" You don't need to be VAT registered.
    Hope that makes sense!
