I wouldn’t normally review a grocery type store but I was so disgusted with the lack of cleanliness in their bathroom that I had to say something. So, disclaimer: this is regarding the bathroom only. I think the store is perfectly fine and everyone I dealt with was very friendly and accommodating. That being said, I hate using bathrooms in grocery stores to begin with but I was desperate or they’d have a mess to clean up! I walked in, after fighting with a 100lb door while on crutches, to a lovely blue slushy on the counter and no one in there that it could have belonged to. I went into the handicap stall and couldn’t believe the amount of paper towels, toilet paper and ripped toilet set covers all over the floor(pictures uploaded). Now, bathrooms are supposed to be checked every 1 – 3 hours for upkeep, this mess could not have happened in that time. Also, the two toilet paper holders were empty and a fresh roll was just placed on top of the empty slot. I know BJs can’t be strapped for cash so these can’t be broken, the cleaner must be too lazy. I thought how many times this roll probably had fallen on the floor and into a wet puddle. Ew. I did my business and walked to the sink to find that«blue drank» still there and more paper products all over as well as an overflowing garbage! Clearly, this couldn’t happen in an hour or two. Next thought, look at the cleaning schedule and see when the last time this place was checked. Low and behold not since the store opened. See photo as well. Now, I know that the empty suits up the totem pole probably don’t pay much attention to Unilocal reviews, but I feel better that this was documented. Maybe I’ll link my review to a honcho and let them know how gross this place was. End rant.

I like BJ’s a lot. The best part about them — they GIVE you coupons and accept manufactures coupons. I always go in to buy 1 or 2 things an leave with 10+ items. Best place to buy baby formula(if you’re not breast feeding) And who doesn’t love their free samples? I mean really!

This is a decent BJs. It usually has everything in stock that I look for at a BJ’s. My one complaint here — and at all stores in their chain — is that their produce isn’t always competitive in price or quality. Everything else is fine. With their membership coupons, many items are priced even better. BUT… this is also where I do all my Verizon business, at their Verizon kiosk. Going to a Verizon store can be incredibly hectic. There’s almost never a wait for service at their kiosk. The staff — not exhausted from talking to hundreds of people daily — and just as eager to earn their commissions — are more than glad to give you as much or as little assistance as you need. I’ve never had a problem getting the parts or service I wanted here.

I am just not a fan of these places… although I do go for the occasional deal. I do like self checkout! This club has a deli and a bakery… They claim a tire sevice but it is a Meineke thing and as such does NOT have discounted prices… so buyer beware, you can do much better elsewhere. The bottle and can machines are always a mess with most of them out of order.
