    Are there any good 17-19 inch LCD tv in costco, and if so any idea on pricing?
    Nothing that small. IIRC, the smallest is 22 inch but I may be wrong.

    I seem to remember paying around £165 when I bought a 22 inch LG TV at the end of August.

    costco
    6 kg of top quality tomatoes £5.99 and they are absolutely superb (think sauces for the freezer)

    shallots are fab and so is the garlic

    huge muffins work out at 40p each and 1 does 2 of us for a treat, they freeze beautifully

    I only joined 2 months ago and I LOVE that place. We saved much more than membership on the first visit alone

    I received the voucher booklet today - there is a voucher for buy 2 mega boxes of huggies nappies save £14 -voucher doesnt say how much it is per box though - was wondering if anyone knows? Cheers! also loving the £3.34 for 2 chickens offer - they are lovely and feed 3 of us for 2 nights each!

    The huggies are £22.99 a box with 210 in size 3-i got size 4's and it worked out cheaper than sainsburys with 1/3rd off. They worked out at 8p per nappy whereas in sainsburys it would cost me 9p per nappy-not much i know but the amount my dd gets through a day, i've saved a good £3.50 on those alone.hth.xx

    any chance of splitting the threads to one for costco and one for makro: about 90% of posts are to do with costco which is annoying for those of us without access to one.

    Best thing with buying tellys at CostCo is the 5 year warranty. I bought a 55" Samsung this summer for £1550. Could have got it a few quid cheaper from Currys but they wanted £400 for a 5 year warranty!
