If you're a member of Costco in the UK, can you also go to Costco in the US based on your UK membership?

although I have not done this I understand that you can

Hi

We are members in the UK and have indeed used our cards to visit the Costco store on Orange Blossom Trail with no problems.

Nice, can't wait to go to a US Costco. The one we have here in Sheffield is rather small, so would love to see a proper big Costco. (I'm pathetic, I know )

i am so glad someone asked this question
Now i have another 'must do' shop to go to...love Costco UK...so should be good to see the 'original'

Dont forget to visit customer services and ask for the current voucher booklet. We found the prices to be much cheaper than the UK Costco, have a look at their US website to get an idea (www.costco.com)

Cheers Michael

Yes - we always stop off at Costco on the way back to the airport - it's one of the cheapest places to fill up on petrol. Also they accept Amex which is better than the UK where you have to pay by Switch.

When we went prior to Christmas we got some fabulous cheapo Christmas presents and it was well worth the trip. At other times it was the same old stuff they have in the UK, pretty much. Also, I would say thst it was almost identical in style, size (and often the stuff sold) than the one I use here in Manchester, so don't necessarily expect it to be much different to what you're used to.

We usually stay quite close to Costco so we use them for fuel most times, was much cheaper. Not sure if that is still the case though what with gas prices rising sharply in the US.

DD2 loves Costco and maintains that she "works" there when she is playing pretend! We have used our membership at the OBT Costco too with no problems, many things are very similar to the UK branches, layout, hotdogs etc! A good trip though!
