It can be good for dishwasher tablets and washing powder/liquid, etc when there doing special offers. The free tasters come in handy as well

Some of the stuff isn't that cheap in comparison to supermarkets, but it's all under one roof. If your like me and can't be arsed to wonder the world to save a few quid. it's ideal and just 5 minutes away.

we go once a month, buy things like mince, chicken, cheese, washing powder, with the chicken and that we chop it up into meal portions and such and freeze it all. do make a good saveing that way. with the rest of it, just being carefull helps or you will spend a fortune. keep you eye on prices and compare.

cafe is the best bit I find it best around christmas time, get some pretty good stuff for the olds etc, tower of treats and stuff. Their meat is nice too, did a bbq in summer and everyone commented on how good it was. The TV's arent too bad either coming with 5 year warranty. Just got to keep an eye on prices as some stuff can be more expensive but not usually

The meat from their is great, some things you can find cheaper. Also if your looking for a certain thing look elsewhere as it can be easy to look and just buy

The passports are good (offers at certain times with savings)

The pizza's are great.

To join just go in and fill the application, think it is around £20 per year, used to be free through my old mans work.
