Costco - is it worth a visit
We will be staying off-site for 13 days and eating out mainly when in the villa. Just wondering if there is any point in going to Costco as there is nothing we would want to bulk buy? We have a card and visit Costco regularly in this country and love it.

We buy their dips, crisps, cereals, fruit, OJ, milk, salad, cooked chicken, butter, cold meats and other bits for snacks, and seafood & steaks for BBQ dinners as well as some heat up stuff (lasagne, etc). All good value and you don’t need to bulk buy - pretty much like the UK.

We always go- we got our fuel from there as it’s so cheap and last time we managed to get tommy polos, DKNY shorts and Levi jeans dirt cheap. We also stock up on mega packs of Aveeno cream, children’s vitamins and those multi pack Rice Krispies bars. They also had the most gorgeous mahogany dining set, unfortunately that never made its way to the UK stores They really should offer shipping to the U.K.!

On the flip side... I live in the US however when I visit the UK I love to visit the UK costco... even if I while nothing I just like to compare.
On a side note, on my last trip to the UK I brought with me a US friend (first time visitor to the country). Whilst in Costco she sampled a piece of Soreen Malt loaf, I guess Malt bread is an acquired taste because she literally started gagging on it... I laughed till I cried
