Bj’s Wholesale Club

This place has a great variety and offers way more than sams; as far as products. The customer service is horrid. This place is like the wal-​mart of bulk shopping. Even though wal-​mart owns SAMs club– SAMs is way ahead in the customer service department. Who woulda thunk.

Normal Bulk super store. It gets a full 5 star for their great policy with Coupons. The expect all of them and you can use multiple

I was pleasantly surprised at being able to shop in the liquor store of BJ’s with out being a member. I do not know if that is the case at other wholesale stores, but it was pretty cool to be able to do so. I did not like the fact that the sales associate barely spoke English, or Spanish, which made me wonder. I only noticed the language barrier because a fellow employee seemed really stressed and irritated. We were the only customers in the store. Clearly he was upset with the lack of ability to communicate. No matter. She was able to take payment for goods. You do not need to speak to do that.

Manager treats his employee like crap.

I don’t need to shop in bulk too often but this BJ’s has some brands and products I like that I can’t find in Walmart or Publix. Their produce is great as well as their selection of specialty cheeses. One big bonus in my book are the self-​checkout lanes, quick and easy, I wish more stores in the area had them.

When I lived in Florida the first thing I did was look at my places empty fridge and then decided that I needed a trip out to get some BJ’s. It’s the equivalent of Costco, Sam’s Club and any other big box chain. Why did I choose BJ’s? Well, I thought of the crude humor involved in carrying a card that had BJ’S written on it and the choice was made.
You know, I’m always thinking of those cheesy pick up lines and what could be better than flashing my BJ’s card… Though I guess in retrospect that wasn’t the best thing to have. While it may not have helped in dating scene, it did help me in the bulk purchase of goods and services.
They also have a gas station attached to the place and well, while getting Gas and BJ’s is not typically something you want close together, in this case it was more than welcomed.
Distance wise, it was also very close to where I was living. So the trip with the barrel of frozen items bought there wouldn’t defrost. Very important thing to keep in mind is that Florida is hot. You reading this review from there should know that already. Those reading from somewhere not in Florida, BREAKING NEWS, FLORIDA IS HOT!
What I liked. Parking was always simple. In the blistering heat or in the sudden massive downpour of rain, it was always the case that I got a spot really close to the shutter gates. And believe me, in some of those Hurricane winds and rains, it was really important to get parking close.
Speaking of which, you ever try to prepare for a Hurricane? You’re going to be happy to have big box supply of batteries as well. Not to mention a bucket-​o-​dry goods for when that big storm comes in. This place also comes in handy when the storm is over and everything in your fridge is spoiled from the lack of electricity. One quick stop over here and you’re good to go.
On to the BJ’s Gas. I always loved filling up with BJ’s gas. I guess I had a chuckle about it. It’s a big box chain and well, it served me well in my time in Florida. Do I still have that BJ’s card? Yes. Yes I do. But that’s neither here nor there.
And per Law, the Alcohol section is separate from the rest of the store and you don’t need a membership to buy booze here. Just walk in and you get the same great big box store savings for the low price. So if you’re in the need for a gallon of Vodka, then there you go.
