I also think they learned to lean into viral items because that's a lot of what I saw in the ready made items. I'm not mad about it because they aren't that bad! I got the new protein pasta to try out and it was actually very tasty. Another thing I tried that was viral was their French onion soup that can be made in the microwave. Super great to have when working home during these cold winter days. After getting the usual paper goods, and other snack that Bubs had it's go through in no time we packed up and left.

It took many years for me to even be able to tolerate a Costco or Bj"s shopping excursion…read more As time has passed I've come to appreciate buying some items in bulk like lawn and leaf bags, pet food, paper goods, gardening supplies, gasoline etc. It took even longer for me to try their fast food concessions while leaving the stores. Costco scares me. Still remember getting allergic to a hot dog 10 years ago in Riverhead from a costco hd. They all make rotisserie chicken. So for grab and go - if you cant wait to get home and cook or going out - sometimes it's easy to grab a slice of pizza and a drink. Usually I just keep going and don't even consider. Sam's is by far the best slice of pizza or hotdog by far - enough so the pizza is actually good. In a dominos, costco kind of way.. they are tops. Much nicer check out systems than Costco. Bis is good for speedy checkout also. When in Medford be ready to buy in bulk and leave with pizza.

If you don't mind digging through stuff that's unorganized and just dumped one top of the other…read morethere can be deals. However people go early to get the good stuff and sometimes people like to stand over the items without allowing you to check it out too. They feel like you're going to steal a deal right off from under them. There was a few knick knacks I saw but honestly the condition was in the best so I decided to pass. I would be open to going back again but I wouldn't go out of my way either.

It took us a while to find this place. As the photos make it look like it's some great big…read morewarehouse. When in turn, it is a small space on the front side of a building, there is no parking lot. That's for businesses on the inside of this strange shaped building. You have to park on the street where there is construction going on above you on the train tracks? We went inside and as expected, it is quite a circus. There are lots of folks in there looking for deals that are on different days and lots of children running around. We found a few things of mild interest. But the line was so long with one cashier and people with large carts filled with items and haggling. After 20min in line with the same ladies questioninh ti cost of roughly 50 products, we put everything back and left. The furniture section was okay, but it was limited. I don't think I'll make the drive back out here.It's pretty far for such little returns.

Bj has it all. We went early because it can get crowded quickly. A great place for bulk with food,…read moredrills, clothes and so on. I like to go there to get my water, toilet paper and paper towels and many other great stuff.

Let's talk about the biggest racket going, well, one of them for sure…read more BJ's sells larger portions of food than you can buy at grocery stores. If you compare the price per pound, you'll quickly realize that they're changing the same, or even more, than supermarkets. It's crazy right? Only about 5-10% of their food products are actually any sort of deal vs supermarkets. Take notice of the produce, meats, fish and raw chicken prices, compare it to your local shop rites, aldi's, Lidl etc, you will see for yourself. Those supermarkets clearly do not require a membership fee, and run better deals as a whole.

Summer helped me and she was incredibly positive and knowledgeable. She helped me choose the right size and recommended the correct shape and shading for my sunglasses. Mind you I walked out with three pairs of glasses for the price of one pair of glasses at the fancy Optical Shops. I will always get my glasses at Costco.

Employee said no new lenses will be given, only 1 yr warranty. He tried to blame me for the problem. The workers at the Costco Pharmacy in East Lyme are rude.

It does give you the best bang for the buck. I tend to not like going there on the weekends because it's so busy, but you can do a pick up order And that is truly amazing. The pack everything for you they do it wonderfully and they are very professional I've only had one time something go wrong and they credited me and fixed it. There's a lot of product if you have time I recommend going during the week when Parking or eggs have been a bit of a prom to get latelybut it's still a good thing for your butt and nowadays we need to save as much as we can!

I just have in person experience at Sam's in Elmsford. I do not place pick-up orders anywhere because I never get what I ordered.
