This was our 2nd time visiting Costco with the 1st being back home in the UK as we have only recently become members, so we thought it would be pretty cool to light heartedly compare it to the one back home. They had some really good stuff!
Let me just say that this video had me giggling the whole way to work thank you! Most people here in Canada find a trip to Costco to be a stressful event with people, crowds and parking but your tour was delightful at how much you enjoyed yourselves lol. It allowed us to experience it in a different light, great review job! 😀
Hi Stacey and Kev. I loved your comparison between the US and the UK. Some things are a good price, other's not so much. The chicken breast price seemed a little high. So glad you enjoyed your trip to the East Coast. As always thank you for taking us along on your adventures ❤❤
Kevin's gravy is a coveted item..lol dunno about the rest. Mfr means manufacturers reduction. Alot of the grocery items don't have pst. Come to Canada and use your Mastercard! I know it works because my husband just used ours to buy a 75inch tv today😅 Boys and their toys! If I turn it on and it works i am good. Men and big, loud electronics in Canada and the States, is a problem 😅😅
In the US you can buy a 115-inch TV, TCL 115QM891G for $19,999. Or you could do the Samsung's The Wall MicroLED TV at 292 inches (it's made up of multiple screens).
I can comment on this the other way as an Englishman living in America now able to shop at COSTCO UK. It is a relatively recent thing that COSTCO memberships are Worldwide. Coming from America, I find the wine selections in the UK better. Here, there is too much focus on Californian wines which, for the most part, I won't drink. The meat counter in the UK suits me better too: I *love* lamb, and there is a much better selection in the UK. Also, in the UK, the bulk Cumberland sausages rival Waitrose's best. Petrol? I'd rather buy in the US thanks :-) The queues are about the same in either country :-(
My UK Costco card didn't "scan" either.(March, 2023) But the cashier called over a supervisor and all was sorted. Same thing happened at the gas station and it was sorted by a human. There was a time when Costco only accepted Amex. Now they accept VISA cos not everyone has an amex.
It is the relationship that Costco has with Visa, simply marketing. You can use a Mastercard branded debt card however. Too bad that Costco ended their relationship with AMEX, since then, the quality of merchandise and customer went down.
American prices. Stupidity of not showing the mandatory taxes. You should checkout a walmart. Like costco but not in insane quantities but they do sell big sizes. And so many choices!! Guns and ammo.

Thanks so much MaryAnn, we had a great time 😄
We kept going back for the Caramel S'mores samples - came away with 6 bags. Our daughter loves her mam and dad! 😅
Haha, don't blame you 😁

Mfr stands for manufactures price
All those cakes. Yummy

Strange! I went 7 months back and my UK membership didn’t work! Must be a new thing the international system!

@ yeah since then I have it on my phone now!
I love s’mores
😋
Costco is a life hack
Mfr's just means manufacturers.
You can use Mastercard all over the US, it's an American company. Not sure what the problem was.
If you Google it, it does say that only visa cards are accepted in Costco warehouses in the US, you can only use Mastercard for purchases online 👍
