Makro Southampton Store

In order to access this store you need to have a Makro card — usually given out to self employed people.
This sells a lot of items in bulk which often makes the price cheaper in the long run. Items have their prices on display exclusive of v.a.t though so you need to do some calculating to ensure you are making a saving. There are many offers starting on a wednesday which they advertise through their magazine — these are Makromail items and are often snapped up quickly — so get in quick to avoid dissapointment.
This store always has an abundance of helpful staff to help reach items located high up or, on one occassion, pushed my trolley round for me as I was in difficulty!
They sell a selection of pretty much anything household — from food to towels to bedding to toiletries and much more and if thirsty or peckish, they have a happy friendly café for very cheap priced coffee, snacks and meals.
They do not have any bags so make sure you bring plenty or you will need to load your purchases directly into the car — lots of carparking spaces directly outside and within easy reach of junction 9 off the M27.
