Never been into Costco, and don't plan to anytime soon. I refuse to pay to get a card simply so I can spend money there, it's just dumb IMO.

Oh, and you link goes to an article about Kevin Rudds house. ;)

I dont know what the prices are like in Australia, but in the UK the card is worth having. It is a trade card (mum and dad have a business) and whatever the card costs is well worth it. I have seen really nice good brand mattresses for a couple of hundred pounds which in the UK would cost double in other shops and a lot more than double here in Aus (beds cost a fortune for some reason in Aus, dont know why?). Tvs too are very cheap indeed even the food is worth a look, good quality and cheap. Like I said I dont know if the same savings are possible in the Aus stores, but in the UK Costco is very cheap.
