I don't mind the coupons, it's the rebates that always bugged me....so glad they don't do that anymore.

Plus If you do use a coupon there is a limit of 1. So if coffee is a coupon and one drink decaf, and the other drinks high caffeine, you have to choose who gets coffee.

Rather drive to Costco in Westly Chapel that cut out coupons




Me, too! :BigApplause:

It will take more visits to start to know what is where in the store.
I will not get used to the need to clip coupons to get sale prices.

Because of the coupon clipping we will most likely not renew when the renewal comes due.

Overall it is a pretty nice store.

What are some other opinions/comments about BJ's?

I agree, very nice looking store. But clipping in-app or paper coupons is inconvenient. Savings are offered at most other stores without this inconvenience.

Also, I find the value is better at Sam's and Costco. Frequently, the price at BJs is about the same but is a smaller product size.

Just came from Sam’s, busy as usual. Lines for gas was over the top. But parked, picked up what I needed, all registers were open, out the door in 21 minutes.

They did have something new, I hadn’t noticed couple weeks ago. There were few items with large signs, informing you that if you bought that item on scan and go there was a significant savings.

You know they have an automatic renewal program - UNLESS - you visit the store and tell them at customer service to not do it - and that is what I have done!!

You can do that online. No need to visit the store.

Only problem is……
 
You can’t use the app if you are buying alcohol!!
!QUOTE=OrangeBlossomBaby;2177178]You don't have to clip coupons. Just use their app. No waste of paper needed. I got the sale price on the frozen bourbon salmon today, $14.99 instead of $17.99, without any coupon at all. If you're a member, you get that sale price.

I also got $2.00 a pound of sliced deli meat, and that did require that I touch my fingertip to a coupon on the app. The horrors - I was expected to actually do something to get a deal. I'm sure I'll be traumatized for life over this indignity.[/QUOTE]

I cancelled the auto renew on line, confirmed by email back from BJ's customer service.

I guess I never knew that Sams had gas.
