good choice, like paper towels. Also allergy meds are more at Costco. So i am trying to justify switching! Having both memberships is not
cost prohibitive. Thoughts??
Sam's regular annual membership is $50. I have both Sam's and Costco memberships, but I dropped BJ's. If I had to choose between Sam's and Costco, I would definitely go with Costco. If your allergy medicines are prescription drugs, you don't need a membership to use either Sam's or Costco pharmacies. It is state law.
