UK Costco card

[Battery Chicken]

Ok I appreciate this sounds strange but my son has Autism in his defense!

He absolutely loves Costco and is desperate to visit one in Florida. We think we can use our UK membership card to get in.

Does anyone have experience/knowledge of this? He will be heartbroken if we go and we are not let in.

You can use your Costco card no problem

We've used it in the past when 5 of us went as stocked up at start of holiday but have not used it for a few years so checked their website and "In short, yes! You can use your Costco membership card at any Costco warehouse in the world."

Don't know if they still do them but you used to get great fresh churros at the cafe too

You can, we have in the past. We went to OBT but I believe that is closed now and a new one is at a different location.
It's just like the ones here so he should be quite comfortable there.

Thanks for the replies Gryff and Mel49 .

Good news he refuses to go to the parks and this is the thing he is excited for!

It will probably be quite reassuring for him to go there as they are exactly the same as here in terms of layout. You could just be walking in to one here that are tat similar.
I’ve found it helps if you say “I’m an international member” when paying.
Just be careful with Danish pastries. That’s not custard it’s cream cheese! 🤮

Works a treat. They have to manually add a number into the till when they scan your card (as it’s a non-US card) but no problem at all.
