BJ’s Wholesale Club

Just got my daughter’s cake from this location and they ran out of yellow cake and only had marble cake and it was yucky. I have never had an issue before however this time being that it was marble it was gross. The only redeeming fact was that the design was great.

I really like BJ’s! The store! :)
This particular one is great because it’s less than a mile from home, right next to Tanger Outlets as well as Stop and Stop and is relatively new. It’s a wholesale club so it’s comparable to other wholesale clubs. The thing I like about BJ’s is that they take manufacturer’s coupons and my VISA credit card. I used to go to Costco but they only take AMEX, which I don’t have. The thing I don’t like about BJ’s is that I have to specifically clip their own coupons. Costco did away with this, which was ultra convenient not to mention cleaner and greener. In the shopping carts at BJ’s you can usually find leftover coupons strewn about that other people didn’t use. And when there’s too many, it just looks messy. I also found their customer service to be very friendly and helpful. I just wish they had a gas station like some of the other BJ’s and I would probably be here every week!

Nope. I just don’t see any reason to go here. The prices are not any better (overall) than you would get at any other big box store, which means that most things are significantly more expensive than if you got them from Target. The food doesn’t look as fresh or as nice as they generally are in Costco or your local supermarket.

Big and clean! Adjacent to the Tanger outlets.
Since it was during the week it was not as crowded as it typically gets which is a plus.
Even though it is bulk the prices still seem high considering it’s supposed to be a bargain. Just me?
A couple of things did irritate me during my visit:
–We were approached 2 different times by employees who were asking «If you own a home and were going to re-​do something which would you do first???»
Clearly, a scheme to get you involved in something and we found it obnoxious.
–One of the staff that was serving samples was going a little nutty.“I don’t know why you’re over there running you’re mouth…”. I didn’t know who she was talking to and I didn’t want to find out so I skipped that sample and continued on my way.
A good thing:
–I stopped to get a hot dog (with sauerkraut) on my way out and the staff member there was very friendly, helpful and funny.
The food stand is always my favorite part of visiting these wholesale places.
Large hot dog with sauerkraut + soda ~$ 1.50!
FYI: I am not sure if the prices are comparable when compared to Costco but as far as paying with credit, apparently BJ’s takes all major credit cards whereas Costco only accepts their own brand of credit card.

I really like shopping at this bj compared to the ones in queens and Brooklyn
Less hectic
Just about the same size as most bjs
and has the same products as all bjs
This location takes expired bj coupons also
Which is good for savings

Not worth going to. Prices aren’t that good (when they are marked, which is inconsistent) compared to local produce/​food stores. Plus they force you to buy more quantity than you need which results in paying the same or more, per unit, than shopping sale prices at other stores. To add insult to injury, they treat you like a criminal when you leave the store because they stop you to have a minimum wage employee go through the motions of checking your receipt against what is in your cart (they can’t really be checking because they do it too quickly to be accurate). Plus they charge a membership fee? No thanks, let all the other suckers shop here. I’ll stick with my local markets where I get competitive prices, a pleasant and efficient environment and treated like a valued customer rather than a criminal.

It is a BIG, NEW, BJs!
The inside is a generic floor layout just like most other BJ’s on Long Island & Queens.
The shopping style is BULK sizes items and cool seasonal stuff.
The B&J brands are good too and at lower prices compared to name brand items.
There is no crowds at the times I’ve been here.
May be because this store is new.
An annoyance– the deli department closes earlier than the store!
Don’t make the mistake like me and visit the deli last.
Note: This store have a tire center (some BJs have no tire center or have closed them)

It is BJ’s Wholesale. It’s the same as the other BJ’s Wholesale Clubs. All of them look similar. Not crazy about the membership fee because most of the prices are not that cheap IMHO. If you have to pay a $ 50 membership to shop at BJ’s, I expect lower prices.
I do like this location because I can stop at BJ’s after I shop at the outlets and pick up some food items for the work week.
You will find a good coupon, once in a while… but is it worth the membership? IMHO I don’t think so.

I have completely revised my old review for this BJs. Although it remains a smaller store, it does have many products that it lacked before such as a small clothing and a book section. There just seem to be a lot of more choices. Also, they have started to hand out samples which, because I can walk here, are always fun to have.

I only go to BJs to buy water in bulk, fish and books. Sounds like a weird combination I know but I don’t find them to have great deals in comparison to other grocery stores for things other than those items. If you do the math, sometimes you are spending much more at BJs. Buying in bulk doesn’t always mean you’re getting a good deal. I do save money however on the water, the books are always cheaper here than they are at Barnes and Noble or Target and the fish is ALWAYS fresh.

Great selection, lines move quick, they are always out of at least 1 the you need.
