  • I was a long-term Costco customer in Chicago and then transferred my membership to Canada. The Canadian stores are similar to those in the US, for the most part. Of course, prices are more, even after currency conversion, and there is no booze, wine or beer (Illinois allows these to be sold by any food merchant) but mostly it's the same stuff. Don't go expecting an enormous variety of choices. Their stores are big because of the breadth of categories and because of the amount of inventory, not because of depth of selection in any category. Another thing to remember is not to be intimidated by what seem like long lines - they are not actually that long as folks buy a lot of large clunky stuff which makes the line stretch out. As for service here, the checkers are excellent - much better than the ones at my former Chicago Costco. Very friendly and helpful. I'd like to see the folks at the Pharmacy have a bit more command of English however. Also, be aware that they have a lot more online offerings if you join. It's good for electronics and computers assuming they happen to carry what you are looking for. Furniture, however, even the more expensive stuff, generally looks a bit off or cheesy. As for the food, look for bargains on cheese, yoghurt and other dairy items. Ignore the produce - you can generally buy it both cheaper and better at local product markets. Their frozen pasta is very good. Costco always has excellent meat, especially beef. Another recommendation is their sheet cakes, which are quite good, very reasonable and only require a one-day turnaround for decoration. Remember that they don't take Visa or Mastercard. Bring cash, a debit card or American Express.
