How far in advance should I order water from Costco? We arrive July 12. How many days before should I order it? They do sell to non members don't they? I thought I read it was like 10% extra. If the cost is $6.97/case and I need 2 cases how much do you think the shipping will be?

I have never ordered stuff like this to be sent to a resort (Pop) so I want to make sure I do it right!!:scared1:

We ordered ours on April 20 for our arrival on April 28. I got an e-mail from Costco saying that it was shipped on the 22nd. So, I would say about a week to 5 days beforehand is plenty. Since you're arriving on a weekend day, I would say I would order it no later than the Monday beforehand. They will hold it for you for up to 2 weeks before, I believe.

You do not pay a fee for the water. I am not a member of Costco and I was not charged a fee. There was tax though, so it came out to like $7.50 or there abouts. The shipping is included in the cost, so 2 cases will cost you around $15 (The same amount of water bought at Disney would probably cost over $100! :scared1: )

Thank you so much for the reply. I think I will try them. We only needed water so I didn't want to pay a $12 delivery fee like the other places charge.:thumbsup2

I'll let you know how it worked out for us when we come back. Last time we ordered through Staples, which worked great, but I didn't want to pay the shipping charge so I tried Costco this time.

Thank for the info! I was going to order from Staples, but Costco is much cheaper.
