Costco opened in Melbourne last August but I'm not sure if that store was the first.<br /><br />The place goes against many of my principles but I was still blown away by it. I doubt I'll buy a membership - for a start, I don't have a car so buying in bulk is difficult and as I'm single and don't have a a freezer or a lot of spare storage space, buying some things in bulk doesn't make sense anyway. But on a deeper level, I prefer to buy Australian products, I like to keep unnecessary packaging to a minimum and to buy eco-friendly products when I can. Costco mostly fails those tests. <br /><br />Hey Julie. Yeah, I was equally appalled and amazed!Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08031245139089119281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3337746618968009137.post-86616154447453752482010-03-15T07:19:20.610+11:002010-03-15T07:19:20.610+11:00It is the sort of place that sends a shudder down ...It is the sort of place that sends a shudder down my spine.
