Lara - you can go to BJ's whenever, get a free pass and check it out. I put up with Costco because their store brand (Kirkland) is awesome, but it can be a mess over there.
I never get a free pass for BJ's.

I like BJ's better because they have a gas station at discount member prices.

i use the Westbury store and checked out the GC store this morning. It seems to have a few higher end items that I don't recall seeing in the past but it is essentially the same store and plenty large enough.

i'm a costco fan - but this particular store makes it especially hard to do so. but, can't check out the bj's until this membership is going to expire next summer.
Go online and get a free 60 day membership to BJ's.

On the real, does this new BJ's Warehouse location have a gas station? There are only 2 on the island with gas stations (Farmingdale and Freeport) so another one would be awesome, especially with how they handled the gas issue after the storm.

I do find it odd they would build one by the mall when the Westbury warehouse is only 10-15 minutes away from there.
