I often use them for prints, not that I am saying they are any good, but I have nothing to compare them with I suppose.

Well we went and joined up once more, quite a few new lines since last time, oil still nice and cheap and you can buy enough wash n wax in a huge plastic drum for IIRC £15 to last a lifetime.
Nice buffet laid on for the new customers and we also got a lucky bag on leaving which contained two bottles of wine and a box of ferera rochas chocs
I bought a big pack of microfibre cloths as a treat for my car and mrs galaxy got her eye on huge circular pine garden table with seats attached so itwill be a trailer job next time we visit which will be midweek or late night as it was really busy today.
£29 for the two of us and we can also take guests so the investment will be worth it.

You have to be in certain business groups according to the website.
Can't get a break down of which ones though

For the public I believe it is by invitation via your employer in this instance because she is currently working for Northumberland county council p/time. before she was working for the Magistrates again it had something to do with the council as they were her employers.
I think business can join anyway.

When I joined Costco at Trafford Park, I didn't have an invite from work as it's more about who you work for.
If you work for the Services (police, fire brigade, medical peeps), financial services (banks etc) and loads of others (that I can't remember) then thats no problem.
All you need as far as I can remember is your most recent payslip to prove you work for said company/service, proof of home address and then pay the £29 for the 2 membership cards.
Use the link from MGTF 135 to find the nearest Costco and give them a bell. They will tell you exactly who can join and what you need to bring along.
Enjoy and make sure you clear some space in the freezer before you go.

never got a chance to read up on what that does.I've read up the nitrogen thing as I recently bought 2 tyres from Costco. From what I understand nitrogen is only marginally beneficial, but the thing I couldn't work out is, what do you when you need to fill your tyres? Surely topping them up with air would negate any benefits that nitrogen offers?
They were the cheapest I could find on Michelin Primacy HP by £13 per tyre, but were almost £60 per tyre cheaper than Kwik-Fit (no surprises there).
Costco is amazing though. The thing to remember is that they are about value for money as opposed to just being cheap.

There are a load of promotions on at the moment, I went in today and bought 4 Michelin 195/50/15 tyres for £169 fitted balanced and filled with nitrogen
they're normally £48 each but the promotion is £20 off 4 tyres up to 15" £40 off 4 16 & 17" and £80 off 4 18" and above
what I have done in the past is bought 4, had 2 fitted then took the other 2 home to be fitted at a later date.
Costco is fantastic for returns, i'd had the 2 tyres about 9 months then PXd the car so I took them back and got a full refund.
Another good thing they do is if you buy something and it's faulty they don't exchange it, they refund you, you then go and buy another and get 12 months warranty again
try doing that at comet
I was talking to the tyre manager while they were fitting my tyres, he said a woman bought a 2 litre bottle of wine back with about 1/3 a litre left in it , she complained it had given her a headache so they refunded her money
If you upload them online then collect instore 5x7" prints are 14.1p each for 1-49, 10.58p 50-149 8.23p eack 150+
150 4x6" prints are 4.11p each

the pressure of nitrogen doesnt increase with heat as much as normal air
so if the perfect pressure in your tyre is 30psi it will stay closer to 30psi when you drive than air will.
i was in Costco today.. Got to say its a long time since i've seen a decent bargain in there. You can beat most costco prices if you shop around.
their 2GB CF cards have been around £17 (for Sandisk Extreme II) for about two years now!
ipod touch and PS3 are cheaper in dixons!
