Costco SA, Adelaide

We are new members to Costco and thought we would try the buffalo wings and wrap platters for NYE - what a hit they were absolutely delicious - can’t wait to have another party..

I shopped around for a set of tires in the city and found that Costco had by far the best price on Michelin with their $100.00 off on four tires promo.
Even if this promo wasn’t there, they were still the lowest price. Interestingly when I called back to a few other retailers and told them Costco price, the only reason they gave me was “Costco needs membership”
Even with a $60.00 yearly membership, it’s still worth it.
Angelo and his team at the center did a fantastic job in getting the install completed. Thank you.

Bought 1 box of Yarra Valley cooked Lamb Shanks (4shanks) - they were fantastic - meat falling off bone in just 30minutes
Bought 3 more boxes this week.
I followed the cooking instructions - cooking from the thawed state in oven.
They were all like "old boot leather" and had cook them for another 3 hours to make them edible.
Just as well I started cooking early otherwise the guests would be having pizza instead!

Not buying them again - and definitely not recommending to anyone.
Costco - for the price charged - these should be 100% quality -100% of the time.
I will be notifying the local store.

We do like Costco and have been members since it opened. The customer service has always been excellent....until today.
We were treated to a rude, unhelpful gentleman who was called over to assist us with finding the correct shoe size. Due to a poor product display, it was impossible to access the shoe boxes to find the correct size. He was sooo belligerent that after trying to assist him..we told him not to bother 'helping' and walked away. We have never had this occur before. (Name of employee has been withheld but we did note it.)

Just joined today. Don't like the fact you have to pay $60 to join PER YEAR!!!!. I'd like my $60 back!. I'll stick with Aldi's.

Well I thought it would happen and it has.
Chicken size has reduced by 400 grams.
As I have been away for awhile I noticed the difference straight away. Well that is when I got the chicken home.
Funny as chicken is just getting cheaper everywhere else.
Still great value but size reduction makes me think Costco is feeling quite comfortable.
Lets see what is reduced in size next.
As this was one of the main items I purchase I wonder if I will renew my membership.

Spice and Passion should be ashamed of themselves and so should Costco for selling this Curry. Its labeled Indonesian Beef rendang and its nothing more than a bad Indian beef curry in a sloppy sauce.

The people of Minangkabau in west Sumartra where this dish originates would be disgusted. I've eaten rendang
in Malay, Singapore, Java and Sumartra and the words Indonesian and rendang should be removed. It's a plain old Indian beef curry and not even spicey at all.

There is no sign or taste of the coconut cook back at all. The sauce and tough beef leads me to think its cooked once instead of the 4-5 times required to make a rendang taste like a rendang. Change the name or remove it costco!

Costco fuel always saves me $5-15$ per tank every three weeks,depends on the average price in the town.
I rarely shop in Costco, most of products are packaged in bulk loads, couldn't finish them.

3 Months ago purchased multi-focal lenses for my frames and was super impressed. Today 2 January 2017 decided to purchase frames and identical lenses. Previously I paid $346 for the lenses plus $20 for fitting them to my frames. Today I was quoted at $480 for the identical lenses. That is a 39% increase.Why such a jump? The young lady did say they had a small increase since my purchase. Small is definitely not the case. I was quoted cheaper in two other places and I will consider them over the next few weeks.

Took 8 hours for a call back after ringing 1800472237 line - no consultants available - then '[name removed] rings - 0450 914 420 mobile and said he was too busy and that he could not fit me in on a Friday, or Saturday - he wanted to ring me back but declined. Sorry not acceptable - poor service - don't like costco to be associated with this lazy graber business.

Have been buying my shop mince for over 6 months and was raving how good it was. Last 3 weeks the mince has gone from less the 10% fat to fat oozing out of it when we make burgers. Something has really changed. No longer do I shop there. All other products are great!

Not everything is cheaper but there are definitely some good deals around.The cheapest items are probably the fresh produce. Just keep your eyes open.

60 dollars to renew a membership every year when you dont save any money in store in general! Not even aldi Woolworths or Coles make you spend money on a member ship and at least you know your fruit and veg will be fresh The only good thing to come from the place is you can buy in bulk but even then you are still paying the same price as every where else. Customer service is a 0/10 with so many people lined up and only 3 registers open and the fruit and veg was mouldy! I for one will not be returning to such a rip off place. I would Much rather support my local iga than to support a money robbing place like this!

I use Costco in Canada as well and we love it. We have been using it for the last 9 years and found it worth every penny. So glad you guys are here.
