do you have them? Do you go? Which is your favorite? What do you get there?

Is that too many questions? :giggle
 
We have Sam's.
Yes, we go.
Dog food, toilet paper, garbage bags... mainly.

I did just get a 50# bag of rice... going to make some of those rice bags that you heat in the microwave as Christmas gifts.
 
We have both, and have had memberships to both (sometimes at the same time). I actually kind of like both for different things...the Costco is nearer and has gas, which can usually over the course of the year save us the membership fee, so I'm really thinking about reupping our membership in the new year. At Sam's Club we buy, milk, cheese, v8, beer and toilet paper, some canned goods (like tomatoes) and baking goods (esp. bread flour and yeast). When we had a Costco membership, we bought greek yogurt, cheese (lol we like cheese), salad fixings, the occasional rotisserie chicken, and of course gas.
 
I just went to Sam's Club yesterday. I mostly only go to accompany my sister, who bought lots of dog food and bottled water. My dog doesn't eat that much (Penny's little!) and as a single lady, it would take me a long time to finish anything in those jumbo sizes!
 
We have a Sam's Club and Costco membership. I rarely go to Sam's. I go to Costco about once a month and get things like chicken, frozen tilapia and salmon, paper towels, chobani yogurt and snacks. I'm headed there today to get outdoor Christmas greenery.
 
We go to Costco for the Foster Farms skinless boneless chicken breasts. That alone pays for the membership itself. But we always leave with way more products than we need. That's Costco for ya!
 
do you have them?
Both are here...we go to Costco, my parent's have a Sam's membership

Do you go?
Yes, almost weekly

Which is your favorite?
I like both for different reasons. I think we are going to get a Sam's membership this spring to stagger our membership dues!!

What do you get there?
use the eye doctor and photo lab
TP, tissues, paper towels, coffee, milk, go-gurt, egg beaters, cheese, frozen meats, hamburger, goldfish crackers, breakfast bars, snacks, batteries, fruit, juice, peanut butter, cereal, poptarts, waffles, pancake mix, syrup, canned fruit, jelly, baby wipes, popcorn......there is more but you get the idea! We buy lots there!!!

Sam's....my mom stocks us up on hotdogs and oatmeal!!!
 
We have Costco, but not Sam's. There are quite a few things I can get more cheaply at Costco, so I get those there. Surprisingly, fresh berries are cheaper at Costco, rather than the local supermarket. I go about once a month.
 
I don't have either of them anywhere near me. If I did, I'm sure I'd go - I like to buy bulk - it doesn't take the 7 of us long to go through certain things.
 
no sam's here, so costco is it. i go once a week and buy the same things pretty much every week - milk, meat, cheese, eggs, bread, water, snacks, mandarins, bananas, grapes, etc.
 
there are about 900 BJ's in my state. which is impressive. .considering the size of my state. There's a costco up in mass somewhere.. far away. I've never been but I'm assuming it's comparible to BJ's
