to ask you about Costco?

[Persimmons123]

I live in London, there is one not too far but definitely not close by, I keep thinking that I should get a membership, but I do not want to if it's not worth it. I looked at the website and I have one of the professions mentioned, so the membership should not be a problem. I have other supermarkets and independent shops close by, I sometimes buy food on Amazon, so it's not like it's that or nothing. I also like buying organic food or food that I know come from countries where animal welfare is of a high standard and fruit/veggie might have some vitamins and minerals left in it. I have a standard-sized family, so it's not that I need to buy 15 bottles of washing up liquid at a time.

And yet I can't get it out of my head! Please help me choose by telling me what you buy there. Thank you!

We go every couple of months for things like toilet/kitchen roll, tissues, cereal, olive oil, washing powder/pods. I also go occasionally with my mum so my parents can benefit too. It's also great if you're having a party or something. Between all that we definitely save the £30-40 the membership costs. If it was a bit more convenient to pop in and out I would go weekly just for fruit/veg!

We have a membership. I wouldn't say it's cheaper most of the time v just shopping at Aldi but if you like branded stuff you can save some money on it. We don't really care for brands so buying eg. 48 Fruit Shoots for a party or 10 boxes of Ariel laundry pods or something doesn't work out cheaper than just buying the Aldi own brand stuff any time I've actually costed stuff up, so we don't really use it for bulk buying. We mainly have the membership so we can get their cakes, ready made sandwich platters etc for parties, that sort of thing.

It’s £33.60 if you want to go into store, £15 online shopping only. We joined couple months ago and it’s always an exciting trip going there! Love the American sized snacks 😂
