Sam's, BJ's, Cosco, etc. Which warehouse do you prefer?

BJ's is our favorite. Skirt Steaks at $ 3.59 per pound are the best for Sunday on the Grill. Purchase everything there. Tents, (What's Irish and likes to Stay out in the rain) Patio Furniture, Air Conditioners. And the best is BJ's Gass which is $.07 to $.10 Cheaper than other Gas Stations.

I have all 3. BJ's is my least favortie but closest to my house. I will not buy fresh food there. It never looks fresh and the store never seems that clean. I find Sam's & Costco to be equal. Meats are always good. Costco seems to have more of their own brands which are always good. Costco apple pie is the best. I just wish they had express lines like BJ's.

We only have Costco. I loved it in New Jersey and will probably buy a membership here.

The only one in my area is Sam's

We love, love, love Costco!! We pretend we're going almost every weekend for "something", but really we're going for all the samples, yum!
Seriously, all of our three children needed glasses all at once this year and we got them there. Only 100.00 each for all of them, and they are really nice looking. Then my DH and I needed glasses and contacts as well. Great savings.

The picture developing! Top notch here. They do fantastic pictures after going to DW, I am totally happy with this and its only .19 a shot.

I love going to this store, I've saved so much money.

We also chose to get our new glasses from Costco. Lots of very cute & stylish choices.

Speaking of Costco....have any of you tried their super thick chocolate cake? It looks great, but we've not had an occasion to get one. The Key Lime Pie is very good.

Sam's..... I hate Sam's Club. It was the only one we had for yrs after they bought out PACE (which I wish was still around). Hate several very bad customer relationship problems with Sams and I they eventually stopped carrying everything I bought from the store when it was PACE.

BJ's... I really like BJ but am giving Costco a try this yr after comparing a few prices

Costco.... Like the food selections better. I love that they carry Organic milk, yogurt and frozen veggies. I wish their isles were labeled. I've shopped there 3 times and it takes forever because there seems to be no rhyme or reason to how things are organized. IE.... 3 different types of salsa were in 3 separate locations. Why wouldn't all salsas be on the same isle? I like that they unload the carts for you. While the lines at Costco are longer than the ones at BJ's they seem to move faster

I have both a Sam's and a Costco membership. Sam's is more convenient to my home.....so I end up shopping there more often but I prefer Costco. I think Costco carries a higher end product, the store is brighter and looks cleaner. Also....the employees seem friendlier and happier.....Most of the Sam's employees are grouches, including the manager at my local Sam's.

We only have a COSTCO here and we go to it often for food items, diapers, and such.
I have been to a Sam's Club in Las Vegas, but didn't get to look around that much. From what I had seen, it seems the same as COSTCO.

I like to shop at BJ's, but I like the snackbar at Costco's...hehehehe.

We only have Sam's--hope we get a Costco before I try to book another cruise. Toledo seems to be a hotbed for new building activity lately, wonder why we don't have a Costco yet?
