BJ's Wholesale Club coming to Lady Lake
2 Attachment(s)
BJ's Wholesale Club is planning on opening a new location in Lady Lake, next to Lowe's. This will finally give Sam's Club some much needed competition. Based on my trip to Lowe's yesterday, it appears that site work is already starting.
I know, now here comes the "I want a Cosco...", "I want a Trader Joe's...", "I want a (insert your favorite store name from the place you left to come to here)...". Bottom line is that these other stores will come to this area if they feel they can make a profit (there's that evil word again) and if the area fits their target market demographic. The attached pictures show the new location (these are from the permitting). |
Awww you just took the guesstimating away from 50 people, who were hoping for something else. Their hopes, and dreams dash away.. .:coolsmiley:

good news. BJ's better than no Cosco!!!!

I'm not all too happy about that. Traffic coming up from 441 to that road is already increased, and dangerous, for golf carts coming up behind Wawa's and taking a left to get toward the drive that cuts between Lowe's and Cracker Barrel. It increased once they started opening up the apartments in the back of that photo for occupancy this past year. We just may find ourselves blocked from Lowes and all points north of it, including Taki's, the car wash, Aldi's, Walmart, Beall's, and a whole bunch of medical offices on that side of that road.
I really hope they consider some kind of accommodation for golf carts OTHER than simply trying to stay alive crossing the street there, as is, with new traffic. Either a bridge, or a traffic light, or a bypass that goes back around BEHIND the new BJ's property and comes out BEHIND Lowe's, where car traffic is already at a significant minimum. I love that there'll be a BJ's. I'm just concerned about traffic in that spot,. |
Shoot! I was hoping it would locate in Trailwinds Village next to Publix.

I’ve never been to a BJ’s. Can someone talk about what it’s like, especially in comparison to Sam’s?

More jobs. Less poverty. Less crime. Good stuff. Never been to a BJ's.

I got that freebee membership to Sam's a couple weeks ago (pay $45, get a $45 credit on your membership card). Used it to look around, see what they have, buy $45 worth of whatever. Their cat food/litter section is TINY, and they didn't have any unscented clumping litter at a reasonable price (I'm not fussy about brands). BJ's has the entire side of an aisle dedicated to cat food, cat litter, and accessories.
They had some interesting things in the center-store area (clothing/books/furnishings, etc). Their meat and prepared fresh foods department looked pretty awesome. I'm not decided on which I like better - I'm used to BJs, but trying to keep an open mind about Sam's. |
I especially like BJ's deli department. Sliced deli at great prices and very good quality.
