Does anyone know of a way that a non-business owner could join Bookers. I have the "qualifications" to join Costco, but I have a Bookers 5 minutes away from me and would love to have a gander round.

I bought a box. They don't seem particularly meaty to me in their frozen state - but I will give them a go!

they tend to puff out a bit when defrosted but you will never get them the same size as the states due to our love of back bacon

Hi Sethh1970

I'm a Costco member and wanted to join Bookers, I went on the website and joined that way, they didn't ask my trade (I'm a tiler)I just put "other" and I got a membership number and log in password from them and told to take some id to my local one (Watford) and I'm in.
I haven't been yet so not sure if they'll question my trade then but I'm hoping they don't, want some of their ribs :)

Hope that helps you

Hi Eddie

I just went on the website and joined up there, filled out the form and they then sent me an email with my website password etc. They said I needed to go in the store with some forms of id.
Like I said though I haven't been there yet so might get turned away

This is an automated e-mail. Do not reply.

Dear Mark

Thank you for registering with Booker.

Your customer number is ********** .

Your website password is ********** You will be asked to change this the first time you log in.

When you visit your chosen Booker branch, please bring two forms of business id, which can be either a utility bill, business invoice or bank statement for the registered address.

Please find details of your account in the attached PDF file.

that's the reply I got from them...........................really hope I don't get turned away though


* just checked my account and its saying my business is small office or service business???. When I filled out the online form im sure it just said "other" in the trade section. Might just be a big mistake on my behalf and will be walking away with my tail between my legs. I cant try a new membership form as it seems to be remembering me every time I go to the home page. im going to my dads in a minute so will try on is computer and see if ive stuffed it up.

* just emailed the branch manager so i'll hopefully have a reply tomorrow.

Hi All
If you have a Macro card already then you can join , I have been informed Bookers have bought Macro(?? don't sue me??).
This info came from the Manager when I went to sign up(sue him!!).

Hi all

Just tried on my dads pc, does just say "other" on business then again on the other sections.
Lets hope its an error on their behalf and they have to let me join.
