Large, warehouse-style buying in bulk shopping trips are de rigeur in suburban America, especially…read morewhen you have 5 children, like my mother. So Costco and Sam's Club (Costco's arch-rival in the US) shopping trips were a fond part of my childhood; mainly for the food samples and 10-packs of chocolate bars. Costco is the first of its type in Birmingham, if you disclude "cash and carry" stores, which are really another thing all together. It works like this, yo: You go into the store. You fill out a membership application. You can join (often for free) through an employer or union, or on your own. The annual fee is £25 for individuals, and slightly more for businesses. Then you grab an enormous trolley and start shopping. Costco carries an assortment of goods, ranging from electronics to lighting, tobacco to food to 125 paper plates for £2. I would imagine people with large familes could do their weekly shop in Costco, only getting a few miscellaneous items from a smaller shop. My husband and I typically buy things like wine, bread, washing up liquid, loo roll and kitchen roll from Costco. On these items, the prices tend to be very reasonable, and cheaper than buying individually in a grocery store. Bulk buying can go to a shopper's head, however. Who doesn't need a three-pack of curry seasoning?? So as a veteran bulk shopper, I encourage people to do their research, or at least have a think before you buy. If you need a lot of something, Costco is a no-brainer, especially if you can't find it cheaper locally. But not all products bought in bulk are more economical than their individual counterparts. Costco provides labels with price-per-unit and price-per-weight, which should be perused carefully. All the staff at Costco are very helpful, from the fresh deli and bakery counters to the checkouts. It's a really fun shopping experience -- much more enjoyable than getting one's ankles rammed by a hyper child wielding a trolley in Morrison's.

Costco is simply mahooosive!, Its basically a very large wholesale store that sells an enormous…read morerange of goods, from car tyres to TVs to bulk food items and drink cases. There is even a small cafe beyond the tills where you can get a coffee or a slice of pizza, a full pizza and lots of yummy 'american' treats when your shopping is done. It's especially good if you want to buy food and drink for a party or an event where you have a lot of guests. the cakes are huge and very good value, and the drink is cheaper than you'd find elsewhere. If you're lucky and go at the right time, they often have little taster counters set around the store where you can sample different products before you buy. It is a case of buying in bulk, and i understand that not everyone wants to buy a catering-sized jar of mayonnaise or 48 toilet rolls all at once! But if you can share with a friend then it is extremely good value for money. A warning about the prices though the main price you see on the labels doesn't include VAT, so make sure you check the price further down in smaller print, or you could be in for a shock at the checkout. But if you an exclusive business member like me you can claim back you VAT Expenses. and i also get a 2% return on all my spend annually. Yes you do have become a member before you can enter the store its £25 for the cheapest individual membership but a member is allowed to add a second person to their card for half price, so if you know someone who already has a card or can team up to join with a friend then it will work out cheaper. Great Tip is that as long as your a member they have record of all your purchases from the past 5 years. you can walk in with a product u brought years ago and get a full refund.

They had some lovely plants but other than that, it's your bog-standard store with Billy bookcases, Poäng chairs, Expedit cubes, Stockholm rugs, and a wide range of Ektorp sofas! But not a 5- star experience as honestly getting to the car parking was a bit convoluted. Might check out the Ikea in Birmingham instead of coming here. Yelp 26/ 2019

I am a massive IKEA fan! Each one is the same... but different. Most have their basic products, but…read moresometimes their minor product range is different depending on the location and country. I know this for a fact, as I've been to IKEAs in nearly every western European country and USA! "Why?" you might ask!? Because it's so much fun! And I can Always rely on a scrumptious and affordable meal in their cafes! This location is basically the same as all the others, but in my opinion it is much larger! One of the biggest buildings in central Coventry! It has 3 floors of parking and 6 or more floors in the building total! Your main starting point is on the floor with 'showrooms'. You can find this floor via the 4 massive elevators from the parking garage. Once you manage to make your way through that, the next level down is smaller individual items for sale, like kitchenware, bedding, storage etc. Then the final level down is the massive warehouse of huge items in boxes to buy. I hope you wrote your item # down somewhere or took a pic on your phone, because there's never many people on this floor to help you! Before the check out, be sure to stop by the discounted area. These are the items that someone returned, partially broken, or old showroom furniture. The checkout queues are usually a bit of a wait, but this location has a self service area if you only have a few things. I suggest eating at the cafe before you shop. At this location it is located on the top floor, near the toilets, and conveniently before you begin with the showrooms. Sometimes I get carried away that after shopping I have so much stuff my trolley won''t fit in the cafe seating area. If that happens, put everything in your car and head back up. (Hassle) The cafe offers a wide selection of full meals at very reasonable prices. And desserts, drinks of all sorts, etc. There is also an area for nursing and a small kids play area. Coventrys IKEA won't let you go home hungry! They've even got a second smaller cafe down stairs on the groundfloor, and another quick one after the tills! Also after the tills is a small geocery store with packaged goods to take home and make for dinner. And don't feel bad about dragging you little ones through the place for a couple hours... because there is actually a daycare center here to let them get off all their steam! Tips and Tricks: Join the IKEA Family card program to get a free type of insurance on faulty products. This card also gets you free coffee or tea any time of day... and discounts of select main courses. It also allows for you to know about upcoming events. Last but not least, scan your club card receipt after every shop for a special spurise! Use the loo before you shop, because once you're in the IKEA "maizes", it takes quite some time to actually get out! Allow yourself enough time to lose yourself in the creative mindset of what your potential home or office space could become! This is a creative space! Coventrys location allows you to validate your parking ticket after shopping. Also if you enter your car around the secret back side entrance, you can save some time and park on the ground floor. This is also useful for walking around the city center so not to navigate stairs or elevators. Enjoy & good luck!

It's a beautiful facade for the workshop from where 'Fine Art Boy' Primo crafts stained glass windows and stained glass for interior doors, and it is a showcase that hints at the level of his skills. A master craftsman is a rare thing and this is what Primo is. Many period homes in Moseley and Kings Heath are bought and transformed sacrilegiously into soulless PVC frontages with all the original features taken out. For those that prefer to keep a little authentic historical feel to their period homes, then Fine Art Glazing are an antidote to this. Primo can replace broken panes, or individual pieces or create original windows and glazing to order. All with attention and loving care.

Who loves a trip to IKEA? THIS GAL!…read more I am going to work on the idea that you haven't ever been to IKEA before and give you the full roundup of the fun that awaits you on your first trip... 1) Parking. Parking at IKEA is a nightmare, especially if you go on a weekend. As a top tip; get there for opening. You should be able to find a space relatively easily and don't have to play the "round and around" the car park game. 2) Confusion. Don't get confused! Yes, a lot of stuff is pre-laid out into rooms as little slices of an ideal home, but you can still get the goods which are on displayu... that just comes later! 3) Bags. I would thoroughly recommend taking yourself some large bags from home if you want to avoid buying their gigantic "builders sand" style carriers. If you are purchasing furniture (which is another battle we will come on to), it comes in a box which you can pop straight into your car. If you are buying bigs and pieces, take a bag or two with you. 4) Small Items/linen/kitchen goods. Right... Don't panic about not finding what you want when you are walking around the room layouts... Everything becomes clear when you get to the marketplace. These areas are split into bedroom, storage, kitchen, bathroom and other areas, so if you're looking for something from a particular room layout you can find it here. 5) Furniture (the biggie). After the marketplace is the warehouse. This can be really daunting but the staff will be happy to point you in the right direction if you have noted down the name of the item you want. Be warned, some of the boxes will be very heavy (remember to bend with your knees). Last but not least... Food! There is a cafe and fast food stand in this IKEA store where you can buy everything from cute Swedish cakes to hotdogs (for a bargain £1). If you have an IKEA family card, you can claim a free coffee and tea in the week too! In summary... A first trip to IKEA can be stressful, but the staff are helpful and the prices are great for the product choice. Take a good look around as you never know what you might find (it's impossible to do the whole store in less than an hour) and don't forget that you can visit their little food shop at the end! This stocks a great range of Cider, frozen food, snacks and cakes!
