First time shopper here. I was lucky to get this cool opportunity as my friend have a membership…read moreand offer to take me for an early holiday shopping trip. My goal was to find great meat deals to then build my holiday dinner menu but also great deal for everyday dinner or special occasion menu ideas. Place was huge. Think Costco but bigger and more warehouse like. They cram so much stuff everywhere. It's like paradise for all in the culinary world. We even bumped into another chef friend shopping with his family. We enjoyed looking at each aisle to see what was available. The large walk in fridgerater (with freezers) had so much meats and produces options. Pricing was decent for large slabs of meats but they do add up. I did gasp when I saw the total on the receipt but we did save alot as we can cut/freeze them.Highly recommend shopping here if you have membership. Got a 17.34lb of rib eye and I did manage to get about 17 steaks out of that. 11.67lb of boneless skinless pork belly which we thinly sliced with our slices machine at home. Do be careful with can items. We didn't do a throughly check when we grab a case of tomato sauce #10 cans; half was dented. But it's not like we could had open the case (sealed cardboard box) to check as well. We saw later that the side had a rip= dented. Also, lots of items (canned goods as well) on the shelves/racks can be dusty. 3 stars because of this issue. They are also particular about their return policy- have to be done at the same location. We took the loss as we weren't coming back to that location and tried to return at a closer location to home.

Things you need to know:…read more You need an account to shop here. Be prepared to push heavy carts around. The cashiers have yellow shopping bags if you ask for them. They are not readily offered not their existence announced. There are free ice packets at the exit of the store. Lots of stuff is sold in bulk but many items can be purchased in smaller amounts. You mut scan your card when you enter. When you get to the checkout counter, they have to scan and count all of the items. You should consider this when you pack your items onto your cart. Otherwise, your check out experience will be long and miserable.
