Does anyone know if Costco are selling SIMs this year? We have the 5cm Aldi ones which are great, but regret not getting some from Costco last year as they were 2.5cm deeper and 10cm wider than the Aldi ones and only a little more expensive. Thanks

Sorry SIMs are self inflating mats.

Look's like I will have to stick with the Aldi ones  . I may just pop into Costco today as we will be passing Southampton, in case they have any other camping stuff that can tempt me!

I bought one a couple of years ago and it didn't last. There's either a hole in it or the valve is faulty as it deflates quickly. Also it tries to inflate when the valve is shut and there's supposed to be no air in it. Was always stored correctly and treated with care at camp.

I'd stick to a decent brand like Thermarest. My backpacking one is still going after around 15 years!

Thanks for that information, my sister picked up 4 Costco ones last year and I have had SIM envy ever since, but maybe I was actually better off with the Aldi ones.

Our Costco ones have also developed leaks at the valve, so will be going back when I get back from work in Istanbul (no rioting near here!!!)

girlwomble, as epa611 says, take them back to costco. Full refund with no questions. No need for a receipt as the sale is recorded on your membership card.
Have looked at their site and no mention of sims this year.

I've seen no Costco SIM's this year, but I've also had no problems with my two year old ones. I have a Lidl or Aldi one, which is a bit thin.
