Big new store coming to the villages
 

Glad to see this store is coming here!

THE VILLAGES - Huge Store Coming - YouTube

Old news! :D https://www.talkofthevillages.com/fo...y-lake-314422/

That's great news. Like BJs better than Costco or Sams.

Was hoping for Costco but when open will pay them a visit.

BJ's gives away free 3-month memberships all the time. Costco doesn't need to. Should tell you something. Doesn't come close to Costco IMO.

I would pick BJ’s over Costco everyday. Never could figure out why people like Costco so much.

Before moving here in 2011, in the Baltimore suburbs I had a BJ's one mile away, a Costco eight miles away and a Sams Club ten miles away. After browsing through each store, I really didn't see a whole lot of difference. So of course I joined the one a mile away, BJ's.

I belong to Sams here, but only go maybe once a month at most. That's just for one item, a pound of lump crab meat for $20, nobody else here stocks it and my wife can make Maryland Crab Cakes that are delicious. One pound can make about 8 crab cakes. That's it, I don't buy anything else because I can never use that much of any one item.

Looks good, recipe?

Where do you live and when is she making the next batch?

BJ’s seems to have about an 80% overlap with Sam’s Club, and I found that everything I wanted I was getting from Sam’s. I would join Costco if it were here, as it has a high reputation, but not BJs.

BJs has military and veterans membership discount pricing on memberships. 25% off plus a coupon the first time. (Membership renews at discounted rate.)

You have to verify your military history with "id.me", and once that's done, you're good to go.

Stop and pick me up on your way to his house!

I go to Sam's once a month any buy almost everything I need for a month. Paper products, canned and jared foods, frozen foods etc. I freeze about a month's worth of meats.

I don't understand people that say that they can't use enough of things.

I never been a fan of paying for a membership so I feel obligated to spend my money in their store.

Agreed, but competition will make Sam's sharpen there pencil!!!!
They are not the cheapest by any means!!! JMHO
