Title says it all.

Thanks,

I believe that Costco uses photo IDs, I know for foreigners it's not too much of a big deal but something to think about. Why not just make your own membership? The length is for a year and the cost isn't too much. If you don't think you'll go too often find a buddy with a membership to go Costco shopping with.
Another way to do things is to find a group and have one member get a membership. THe others tag along and buy whatever they need. Then you divvy it up once you get home. It's nice since most everything is in bulk you can just keep as much as you need instead of having to keep things stored for long periods of time. |

Yearly membership is 35,000won (cheap enough). Good idea about sharing a membership if you can get together and go with friends at the same time. Only 2 non-members can accompany the card holder. I wouldn't be caught dead here without a Costco membership (well maybe I just would eat out more..but I like to cook). |

I love shopping at Costco here! I went at least once a month when I lived in Anyang. I also recently moved to Suwon, though. Does anyone know how to get to Costco from Suwon (public transportation). Thanks! |
