I had the opportunity to do a shopping review at Bj’s Warehouse Club. I haven’t been in a club for years and was anxious to give it a try, especially after learning that BJ’s accepts manufacturer’s coupons. And better yet, they offer their own coupons and you can stack them with the manufacturer’s coupons. Win, win for the coupon shopper.
BJ’s offers warehouse size packages, but they also offer common grocery store size packaging, too. Oh and when I mentioned above that they take coupons, if items are packaged together in single package groupings, like 3 tubes of toothpaste all in retail size boxes packaged together, or hand lotions, 3 in a set or baby formula 8 in a case, as long as the packaging contains, multiple packages you can use multiple coupons. I know that sounds confusing, but I bought a 3 pack of Jergen’s lotion. I was able to use 3 manufacturer’s coupons $1/1 for each bottle in the package. WOW! It all depends on the packaging. Cereal, diapers, K-Cups, are a few of the items I can think of that come in large quantities, without seperate packages, so only one coupon on those. If you are confused, just stop at the service desk and they will be glad to help you figure it out, I asked several times.
Now, through Decemeber 31st, BJ’s is offering a free 6o day trial membership. You will have access to everything in the store, coupons (on display at all stores and online) and all member perks. Another great thing, their memberships are 100 % money back guaranteed. If you are not satisfied with your membership at anytime during your year, just let them know and you will receive a refund, no questions asked.
The picture at the top is what I purchased on our first trial run. I also made lots of notes on pricing, package sizes and products, so next time I will be armed for battle. I was able to save a bit over 50 % off my whole trip, that is what I strive for on every grocery visit, so I was satisfied.
Watch our video below, for the whole shopping breakdown. Unfortunately, we had few technical glitches with our computer over the past several weeks, so not all experiences were included, but this video should give you a good overview of out trip. Have you ever shopped at a warehouse club? Did you know that BJ’s took coupons? Would love for you to comment below. Happy Shopping!
