Whilst we were at the Ideal Home Show a couple of weeks ago, we renewed our Costco membership. It was due anyway, and they gave us a bottle of wine for doing so, so it seemed like a good idea.
So, this evening, after Jake and I had endured our 6-monthly reprimand from the dentist, we decided to head over to Thurrock to pick up some bargains. As always, a trip to Costco is a slightly surreal experience. There can't be too many shops that sell the full range from hot tubs to golf clubs, and from cheese to TVs (sadly, out of that selection, we only came home with some cheese!).
We picked up some of our regular Costco supplies - brownie mix, San Pellegrino, and chocolate shortbread. Sounds like the ideal accompaniments to a weekend of watching the Masters!
The other bargain news of the day is that Nicky has been shopping around for front door suppliers, and having been a bit disappointed by the quote from the firm that did our door and windows at Round Wood, seems to have managed to find an alternative firm who will supply and fit the exact same door for over £1,000 less. Nice work!
