We go to BJ's at least twice a month. Prices are pretty comparable to Sam's, usually the exact same price or just pennies off. One week, I did a price comparison on items we commonly use, and for the few products that there was a large price difference, BJ's was cheaper than Sam's. We buy all our diapers and wipes there. We use Pampers, but have a friend that loves BJ's brand diapers. We also buy cat food and cat litter (I prefer BJ's brand cat litter over the name brands), garbage bags, wine/beer, frozen chicken breasts, milk, cheese, some fresh meat, water (BJ's brand), and have purchased tires there as well. Their gas is usually the same price as Sam's, but BJ's is much closer, so go there regularly for that as well. My Mom likes to buy cards there because they are much cheaper than at the grocery or card stores. I like that we get monthly coupon books and can use manufacturer's coupons as well. I haven't been able to find additional coupons in the store recently - hope they haven't discontinued doing that!
