costco versus bj's''

we're thinking of joining one, live close to both. mostly for diapers, wipes, baby stuff. and housewares - papergoods, cleaning supplies. which one is cheaper? which one has better products?

BJ's is way better for baby supplies...BJ's carries Huggies, Pampers, Luvs...Costco only carries their own brand and huggies, if I can remember correctly....bjs has a better selection of formula also. They are pretty much the same in other items.

Prices are decent....I buy my daughters diapers there and I pay about $35 for 174 diapers...def a good price. Bj's also lets you use coupons...You have to know your prices....some things are really good deals, while others are not.

Re: costco versus bj's''

You ladies are talking about the BJs coupons they send to your home, right? You can't use regular coupons there?

Re: costco versus bj's''

I go to BJ's to buy diapers all the time. I usually get formula there as well, but they didnt have Similac powder last time I went. I got a case of size 1 pampers which has about 208 diapers for $30.49 and had $1.50 coupon that I used as well

ETA-they also have an express line which is nice if you are only picking up a few items
