Costco.... Yaaaaaaaay !!!
 

Guess who's opening in Sydney in 2011 ?


I'm excited !! :snap: :cheers:

Congratulations - you will now be able to buy ketchup in handle two-gallon containers!

Costco is a great place to have a free lunch :)

I reckon it'll more likely be four-litre containers. ;)

Congratulations.

Your journey to the dark side is now complete.

I did not renew my Costco membership. I found that i really don't need to buy that much stuff at one time - especially food items. The items that come in huge packages are not the type of things I should be eating in massive quantities anyways (ie: cheese, meat, prepared and processed foods). And, with just the two of us, I can't finish off the giant quantities of veggies.

The other stuff didn't do much for my goal of trying to be less of a consumer.

Where is did come in handy was buying things like printer ink. But that savings on that didn't really add up to the price of membership.

I go to Costco for gas and their generic Zyrtec. I can buy 365 pills for $17 vs the $45+ for 75 pills. That alone is worth the price of membership for me. Then again, my parents have been paying the membership fee for years. I'd probably still buy it for the Zyrtec if they stopped renewing.

I also love buying electronics there since they extend the warranty out to 2 years. When my printer stopped working a month after the 1 year warranty ran out I boxed it up, took it and my receipt back and was able to buy a new one of my choice minus the price of the old one with no hassle.
