Garbage Frugal Life Hacks
In my experience, as a family plan BJ's shopper, deals are on very specific items. If you're clothes shopping at the mall, you'll save money and find some great deals at BJ's. If you already thrifting, BJs won't help.
A lot of food at BJs is bulk, but the price isn't any better. Some of the stuff that is cheaper, isn't healthy.
Tires and car batteries can be a good deal at BJs, especially if you do your research first and don't just buy whatever.
On a sidenote, I recently saw a video talking about how a lot of car batteries off the shelf at stores are functionally broken off the shelf. Now, I'm not saying they're not repairable, but many of them are in a charge state that needs servicing, despite being brand new. So go ahead and replace your car battery there, but make sure you either have the know how to do a de-sulf or whatever else type charge it needs, or else make the service center test it when you buy it. -- I can confirm, bought a car battery from BJs, installed it myself, and when I had the car serviced a month later, the mechanic pointed out the 30 day old battery needed servicing (like, no additional charge, he was being honest). That jived with what the video I saw said, same issue.
