Of course, there is the Costco membership fee, which many people may not have. It's $40, right? The FreQ people gave $35 as the highest charge with their approved audiologists. But if you are already a Costco member, good deal.

Wow, thanks for the tip. I sure did not know that Costco gave free impressions! They can run from $30->$60, depending on who is ripping you off.

That is good for Costco members, I paid $20 for the UE recommended audiologists near me.

What about the Costco's in Canada?

 

[Joshatdot]

free impresions .. for custom IEM housing?! Then what do you do with them..mold your own, or send them to whoever?

I work for Costco and did not know this...

I'm unaware of any department that could even house a position like an audiologist, at least at my location. The only specialist departments we have are Optics, 1 Hour Photo, Tobacco, Pharmacy, Food Court, Deli and Bakery.

What location did you visit to get these free impressions done?

The costcos in my area all have hearing aid departments.

 

[patalp]

Same here. The one closest to my house has free hearing tests too I believe.

 

[khbaur330162]

Wow, that's interesting to find out. I'll have to visit some of the other warehouses in the area.

Yep, all 3 in the Salt lake area have a little office near the pharmacy.

Nice tip. Thanks for that!

14 year Costco guy...left about 3 years ago, and yes, a lot of locations have a Hearing Aid center. I did not know that they did free impressions though...great find!

Then again...I already got mine done by LiveWires themselves

My parents are Costco members, but I'm not. Could I still get free impressions? I doubt it... *calls them*
