I have the exec membership too
I have the same at sams club, the early hours perk saved me quite a few times and when Costco is just a madhouse and I'm not in the mood for it
Both are worth it for me

yeah my main reason for getting it initially was to be able to shop there early. lol I found out about the other benefits later.

yes I know many do not and it's no where near as packed as costco
But I do have a membership and shop there so I won't front because it isn't popular
*albeit for good reason, their corporate responsibility and treatment of workers, practice of shifting manufacturing offshore etc is atrocious
I'll get there :(

by the time they stopped I was hooked on the other perks  , but that's what peaked my interest in the beginning.

Yeah my membership card is also an amex. I thought it automatically came like that. Makes everything super easy.
And James if you take me to Pappadeux, I'll take you to Costco.

I have Costco Exec w/Amex and I have BJs. My dad opened the Costco
& BJs many years ago when they first opened in NJ so we all have
membership on the same plan. I love costco for many reasons
including the way that they protect & value their employees &
customers (with the product testing that they do b4 they agree to have any item sold
in their store and i also love the generous return policy). That annual rebate is
great (you can turn the rebate voucher in for cash at the register if you dont want to buy anything) and I go to their gas station, tire change & tire rotation and to their pharmacy. For BJ's
they have certain non traditional items & seasonal & locally
sourced stuff and a whole lot of ethnic products (bj's tends to be in
very very diverse areas here) so you can find anything from Taliah
Waajid natural hair products to an Indian mortar & pestle to a
latino caldero and the cuban espresso pot, all at extremely low prices
and high quality. They have the guava pasteles there in the bakery and
lawddd, i think that someone's granny is in the back at 5am making them
b/c they are soo good and the ingredient list is like homemade and not
all synthetic crap ***Another thing that I love is that BJs sells greeting cards and also that they close at 10PM which is a lifesaver when you need to buy bulk at the last minute b4 an event.
