It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Re: costco
Yes you can as we are on the BIG list they hang on the wall. You need your RM id badge and a payslip. Oh you have to have a knobby photo taken as well for your membership card. 
Rows of houses all bearing down on me........I can feel their blue hands touching me.......All these things in all positions.........All these things will one day take control..........

Re: costco
Yeah thats it. Its just a cash and carry store which used to be for trade only but we qualify as well. You can get some bargains as you buy in bulk. Things like huge packs of bog roll and large industrial tins of coffee.POSTMAN wrote:Ok,what is it then? Is it these...

You can get HiFi and TV’s etc as well but the internet is probably more competitive theses days.
Oh the food section is worth a look and is good if your throwing a party. I bought a tray of 12 Danish pastries for £3.39 last time I went.
Membership cost £23 a year.

Well I agree on the shite wage bit especially now they have taken out D2D money.creedscat wrote:Just another hyped up home bargains type of shop then eh??

No I think we get in because of the old civil service connection. Its not a bad place to go really but does get very very busy. You need to buy in bulk to get back your membership fee and make the savings and try not give in to impulses because things look cheap.
From my location it’s a bit of a journey involving some pretty horrendously busy roundabouts so it’s a kind of treat thing. But if I had one on my doorstep I would go more often.

I prefer Makros at Charlton. Got the kids swimming pool from Costco years ago, that was a bargain at the time.POSTMAN wrote:Nearest one to me is Thurrock,fecking miles away.

So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets
Illegitimi non carborundum

It's not like the old days when you could easily get a Makros card,from memory it's near on impossible unless you have VAT registered kinda stuff,unless it's changed again.Stormproof wrote:I prefer Makros at Charlton.
