I'm looking forward to us getting a Waitrose around here.
There is always M&S Food in Heswall. Whilst the great unwashed are technically permitted into the store, you won't see them clambering to bulk buy all the cut price own brand beans because they are 3p instead if 5p! Haha.

So,its the rich c***s again- getting it all on the cheap? FFS
Hardly - if you look at the list, it doesn't specify what job someone does in those particular organisations, so you could have (for example) a single mum doing a few hours working part time as a domestic on a Band 1 salary in the NHS, they'd still qualify as they work in the health care sector. Just one example, obviously there are lots more, which will definitly include people on minimum wage. So not exactly rich!
Of course there will be people who use Costco who are well off - you only have to look at the prices of some of their higher end lines to see that - but that doesn't mean we all are! However I suspect that it's profit from the high value lines (along with the no-frills warehouse premises and minimum staffing levels etc) that make the business model work, and effectively subsidise the more mundane day to day stuff.
I was a member a few years ago and shared the annual fee of £30ish between me, my mother and my sister in law. Even only paying £10 per year each it wasn't really worth it. I found it normally a bit more expensive than anywhere else but they had some lovely things such as their hot rotisserie barbecue ribs which fell off the bone, pizza and Danish pastries. Would recommend finding someone with a card and going with them every now and then.
i go there all the time, i joined when i was a volunteer with the NHS and have had my membership for about 3-4 years now... it's not FULL of bargains but some things in there are definitely worth the £30 a year membership... the meat they have is nice, washing up powder etc works out good value and so do the sweets at this time of year when buying for others, but things like alcohol and cigarettes are probably cheaper in places like bargain booze and asda
Well, I went there today with just a utility bill and my ID and still I couldn't get membership, however the girl at the customer service desk did say that if I could bring a pay stub from my previous job when I worked for a bank, she would happily sign me up. I'll go again tomorrow with the necessary paperwork and will hopefully get my card.

Costco can be as good as anywhere, if you want to buy big sometimes it's worth it. There is normally someone you know who has a card, get them to take you with them.

Im amazed that a business in this day and age can dictate who joins up with them based on stupid arbitrary reasons. I bet they would add "no blacks, gays or riff raff" to the list if they could get away with it.
