This offer is nice and the freebies are a nice touch. £28 is a good price, however as hashman previously commented... it's not necessarily worth it.
If you've got a business (or buy for a business) then it might be worth it to buy large quantities.
However for casual shoppers like me you'll just end up with too much of one thing, unless you have a large family.
The one thing I really shop there for is Kirkland signature bottled spring water, 48 bottles for just over £3. Worth it for £33.60 a year? No... but I had to try it.
IS this groupons made up RRP's again?
Update : new customers only. Ah well
Many Costco sites now include a petrol station, which is usually the cheapest fuel in the area. So maybe?
If you have one nearby with a fuel court I'd say it's worth it due to their low petrol/diesel prices.
Some of their special offers are good value, and I'd say their clothing is pretty good quality.
I wouldn't get a membership purely on regular food prices though, personally.

What can be worthwhile is their leaflet deals on things like Andrex from today - typically we stock up on those types of things, plus kids birthday cakes and massive packs of stuff if you're entertaining.
Wines can be cheap sometimes (Campo Viejo Gran Reserva for example from time to time).
No fililng stations in London - area unfortunately.
Doubt I can use this anyway as it's for new customers. Heat though as Costco is great.
which branch did you renew with and which type of membership? I just placed an order online - could have done with a voucher!
Exactly - have you heard of them planning one there as you say 'yet'? They have the space and it's their HQ!
It the only shop where kids don't kick up a fuss actually - I don't mind shopping there with them as they are on the lookout for tasting the foods!
We did well picking up the Roald Dahl box set for under a tenner a few months ago, and Lego advent calendars the other day.
Rotisserie chickens are exceptional value too.... and as long as you don't live in the South (except near Bristol/Thurrock) saving 6p per litre on fuel also pays for itself.
..and you get WW membership - useful if you're going to the US.
Any1 know if i can join again dnt work though.
and me and my daughter love the food tasting :-)
I did have membership until august , if I use this deal could I get away with being a new member rather than renewal?

Manchester
Oldham
Sheffield
Thurrock
Next fuel station to open is Edinburgh, but it's not yet listed on Costco's website
Thanks, appreciate the thought - NW London to Lakeside isn't worth my time I'm afraid.
Ooh I didn't know about the WeightWatchers membership - worth it just for the stuff we buy from this place
Toilet rolls
Frozen chicken
Engine oil
Spices
Potatoes
Eggs
Paper towels
Coffee
Car shampoo
Just from the top of my head products cheaper or occasionally cheaper at Costco comparing to other supermarkets. Not mentioning excellent quality of their meat
Not only that, but the trick is to get a group of maybe 4 families to contribute to a membership and one person joins everyone else goes along as a guest. Membership costs just a few quid then.
I upgraded to the Executive Membership which gives 2% back on purchases (you get a Costco cheque for the cashback amount once each year). It might be worth considering this upgrade IF you will spend over £2000 per year with them - as it has an additional cost (e.g. individual member: ordinary = £28+VAT = £33.60; executive = £62+VAT = £74.40 = £40.80 inv VAT extra per year).
My son has an additional card and as he is currently in the US, he can use it there without any problems.
Aside from the return policy and the savings on specific items that others have mentioned in previous posts, I find the meat and fish at Costco very good - not the cheapest but much better quality than you get in most supermarkets.
