Costco confirms Prime drink on sale this week - and it's cheaper than Asda

Just when parents thought all hope of finding the sought-after Prime drink was lost, Costco has confirmed it will be selling bottles by the crate.

We reported yesterday how kids are still going crazy for the hydration drink, marketed by YouTubers KSI and Logan Paul.

Asda was the exclusive stockist, selling the various flavours for £2 a bottle and more recently other stores including Aldi and Spar shops have had customers scrambling for limited stock.

But it's still been like gold dust for shoppers, which is why the news from Costco is getting people in such a frenzy.

The bottles will be sold in branches of the American-owned membership-only wholesaler from tomorrow (Friday), with members able to pick up two crates each.

One crate will cost £18.58 for 12 bottles, meaning each drink will cost £1.55 - 22% less than at Asda and a damn sight cheaper than the £10 plus price tag some retailers have been setting.

Costco in Trafford Park today confirmed that it will be selling the Ice Pop flavour from Friday.

Oldham's store said it too is hoping to have stock out, but is urging people to call up on Friday morning to confirm.

It comes after we reported how the Prime Tracker UK app is being downloaded by fans as it alerts them to stock levels in their area. They shared news of the Costco stock on their Twitter account on Thursday.

KSI himself has been speaking of how difficult it is to get hold of the drink and gave his support to the app, which costs 89p to download on the App Store and is coming to android in the next few days.

Asda is continuing to get regular deliveries of the drink and it's likely that Aldi, where photos have emerged of Prime stock in warehouses, will soon be selling more of the bottles in stores.
