Won't be going there every week but for a monthly excursion, sounds like it would be worth it.
We are gladly giving up our BJ's membership this year since we already have a Costco membership and we like Sam's for certain things. BJ's has some decent stuff, but it's like a mini-Costco. We're south of 44 but 5 mins to the turnpike so the new Costco will be roughly the same amount of time to get to the BJ's in Lady Lake.
