Is Bj’S Cheaper Than Walmart?

“The BJ’s brand definitely makes it cheap,” Boland says. Plus BJ’s has a 100% money-back guarantee, so if you try them and they don’t work, you can take back the unused items.

When CNBC Make It compared BJ’s and Costco products last month, we found BJ’s brand of butter and shredded mozzarella cheese was significantly cheaper than Costco’s. However, when it comes to affordable dairy items, milk is not on the list.

It may also be easier to find: The wholesale club has locations in 44 states, as well as international outposts, as opposed to BJ’s, which has over 200 stores spread across just 16 states. Wholesale clubs don’t traditionally accept manufacturer coupons, but BJ’s is the exception, which provides you a great way to save money.

Sam’s Club costs $45 for an annual membership, and BJ’s costs $55. A premium membership at either store costs $100 or $110 a year, respectively. After visiting both stores, it seemed like BJ’s was struggling to keep up with Sam’s Club and the stores’ other rival, Costco. But BJ’s is showing some signs of strength.

How much is BJ’s detergent?

BJ’s is also great for laundry supplies, Boland says, namely detergent. The retailer sells its 170-ounce Berkley Jensen Ultra liquid laundry detergent, which is comparable to the Tide brand, for $13.99.

BJ’s sells its members a 180-count pack of size 3 Berkley Jensen ultra absorbent diapers for $25.99, or about 14 cents per diaper.

BJ’s has a 220-count package of Berkley Jensen paper plates for $11.99 and a 108-count package of Berkley Jensen 12-ounce cups that can be used for hot or cold drinks for $12.99.

Closer to New York City, it costs about $15.99 for members to refill a tank at the BJ’s in North Bergen, New Jersey, according to a sales associate CNBC Make It spoke with. That’s cheaper than the nearby Home Depot, which charges around $19, according to a store sales associate.

Primarily located in the eastern part of the U.S., BJ’s offers in-store memberships starting at $55 a year. The retailer has a $10 online access membership if you only want to shop through their website. BJ’s also routinely offers discounted memberships to new customers.

Coffee. “Coffee is a really great deal at BJ’s,” Boland says. The store has sales on coffee frequently, too: About every other month, BJ’s offers shoppers a $5 off coupon, Boland reports. Starbucks coffee, in particular, is a bargain at BJ’s, especially when you take the coupon into account.

How much does it cost to get BJ’s same day delivery?

The minimum order for that service is $35, according to Costco. BJ’s also offers same-day delivery through Instacart and there’s no fee on orders over $35, although the retailer says service fees may still apply. To use same-day delivery, you must spend at least $10.

There are ways to avoid paying, but if you’re a regular shopper it often makes sense. A BJ’s in-store membership starts at $55 a year. The retailer offers a $10 online access membership if you only want to shop through their website. BJ’s also routinely offers discounted memberships to new customers.

To qualify for free shipping on your two-day delivery from Costco, you need to spend a minimum of $75. For same-day delivery through Instacart, prices include a service and delivery fee.

However, Costco says, items may be cheaper when shopping in-store. Indeed, Consumer Reports found that grocery prices for same-day delivery were 31% higher at Costco than the ones in the store. So if you can get to the store in person, Costco may be a good bet.

But if you do find a better deal through their website, BJ’s policy notes they will match the difference in the form of a gift card, according to the Krazy Coupon Lady site.
