The Chocolate Shop is stuffed from floor to ceiling with, er, well chocolate. There's an incredible range of bars, boxes, novelty figures and gift selections. The aroma is gorgeous. All I ever want to do when I visit is run round the store stuffing my face with as much chocolate as possible, ending up with it all round my face. Fortunately dignity steps in and I make do with a box of my favourite cappuccino chocolates.

The Chocolates from here are simply the best and I have a LOT of experience in this field. Plus,…read morethe cards are great!

COSTCO tire center-Enfield CT…read more I am writing to post my disappointment with a recent experience at your tire service center. I purchased tires for my Jeep at Costco with the understanding that while the pricing is typically at full retail, the added value comes from Costco's reputation for exceptional service, professionalism, and customer support. Unfortunately, my experience on this visit did not reflect those standards. I had a 5:30 PM appointment for a tire rotation and balance. I arrived 10 minutes early and was told I would receive a call when the work was complete in about an hour. . After waiting over an hour without any update, I returned to the counter at 6:40 PM to check on the status of my vehicle. I was met with a dismissive attitude and informed--rather defensively--that only one mechanic was working and he was doing the best he could. I finally received my vehicle at 7:15 PM, nearly two hours after my scheduled appointment time. When I spoke with management, I was told the delay was due to staffing issues and I was expected to be understanding of the one man team's stress and workload. While I empathize with any staffing challenges, I believe it is not the customer's responsibility to bear the burden of internal operational issues. The expectation when booking an appointment--especially with a reputable company like Costco--is that the agreed-upon time will be respected and service delivered professionally. This experience has led me to question whether there is any remaining value in purchasing tires through Costco. If I am paying full price but receiving substandard service, consumers might as well shop around for the best deal elsewhere. I hope you take this feedback seriously and take steps to ensure other customers don't face similar frustrations. Although I am entitled to free rotations, I informed the manager I would rather pay another mechanic to do the job, properly and timely, than get it free at Costco.
