    No, anyone can join. It's about £25 a year membership, you just can't go in on a morning when it is trade only. They do some really nice stuff, especially the meat and cakes!

    £29.37. I just opened my own account there on Wed after my card on someone else's account stopped working (they'd closed the account and not told me).

    Agree about the meat in particular - their Kirkland brand is absolutely gorgeous and you quickly realise how shit supermarket meat is when you've sampled the Kirkland stuff. :):)

    Thankyou
    I have my old NHS ID card from when I worked at the Hospital. Maybe that would work.

    Do they sell pet food:?
