When living in NJ we were members of both BJ's and Costco. We preferred BJ's for the food as the portions were smaller which was fine for a family of 2. However we liked Costco for household items, clothing etc. I would love to see both here in this area.

Oh, the regional differences of what is considered "far!" 39 miles? Piece of cake. I wish there were a decent store 40 miles from here. Closest costco to us is in El Paso...about 5hours away, round trip. Closest JoAnn's and Sam's Club- 300 miles round trip. One of the many reasons I am so looking forward to being in TV. Leaving in 6 days now. Can not wait!!!!

Was a Cosco member for years until I realized that I wasn't saving enough to cover my membership. I didn't have a separate freezer to store months worth of frozen foods. I didn't really have room to store months worth of toilet paper and paper towels. What really convinced me was that I could buy coke at Publix on sale for less than Cosco. On the rare occasion I would make out buying a TV or high dollar item, but in the long run I figured it wasn't worth it. I also belonged to BJ's and it was the same. Of all of them Cosco would be my first choice, but can't justify it. JMHO

I believe I read in the Daily Sun that they were working on arrangements for both a Costco and a Cheesecake Factory.

We shop at Costco, and often split/share large packaged quantities with single friends and family when there too much for us to use or store. That makes the value work well for us.
