It's a union store too, which is awesome.

The annual equity cheques aren't too shabby, either.

Only thing is our Discovery co-op in the Battlefords is so expensive for groceries. Plus a lot of their Gold products are made in the USA. We love being members but, buying groceries isn't really an option because of the cost.

You got a card? I can give you my co-op number and my fathers co-op number just off the top of my head.

I can recite my parent's, but I'm going to have to use a crutch until I memorize it, LOL.

I just signed up, they didn't say anything about sending a card, do they just do it automatically or do you have to request it?

I would expect them to mail you something, though when I signed up for my local Co-op several years ago, they sent little key chain tags rather than full-sized membership cards.

They automatically sent me a card with some other information listing all the benefits of membership a couple weeks after I applied.

Of course that was so long ago that the cards didn't have bar codes on them...
