The post below is sponsored by BJ’s Wholesale Club. All opinions expressed belong to me.
If you’ve been following me since summer, you know I’ve been learning all about BJ’s Wholesale Club, which has recently made its debut in Michigan in both Madison Heights and Taylor {and coming soon — Chesterfield Township!}.
In case you aren’t familiar, BJ’s fresh assortment offers more fresh food than other warehouse clubs and they are always focused on offering the best prices on the items that families need most, all at an incredible value.
After several trips to the club, I’ve been able to boil down my favorite products and areas of the club to shop in. The following list incorporates my go-to spots and products to buy when visiting the club for a weekly grocery haul.
Products and Features Families Will Love at BJ’s Wholesale Club
Gas
BJ’s Wholesale Clubs are known for low gas prices. Both the Madison Heights and Taylor locations are in highly trafficked areas, making it worth the stop to save cash. On a recent trip, gas was 10 cents cheaper than the competitor across the street. This alone can be worth the membership if you do a lot of driving.
For our family, that means more cash in our pocket for adventures!
Floral
This is probably my personal favorite are of the store. If you shop for flowers, you know they can get very expensive. BJ’s selection are not only gorgeous and unique, but also very affordable with bouquets ranging from $10-$16. Perfect for gifting to anyone in your life that loves flowers!
Kid-Friendly Snacks
With three mouths to feed, the snack aisles are some of my family’s favorites. The prices are fair, and the selection is unique in comparison to other clubs.
Most items in this area are only available in bulk, but items like chips {including an entire area of Detroit made Better Made} are available in normal sizes. The cereal section is especially exciting with lots of choices and amazing prices. Other favorites include the Wellsley Farms granola bars, pretzels, and animals crackers.

Organic Products
If buying organic is important to your family, BJ’s has a great selection from snacks and meat to produce, and even eco-friendly cleaning products.
Entertaining for a Crowd
The freezer section is one of the most fun areas of the store in my opinion. Check out this wall of snacks — perfect for parties! In addition to freezer items, the charcuterie selection is amazing with TONS of meats, cheeses, nuts and dried fruit.
The alcohol selection can’t be beat either. I’ve been loving the Wellsley Farms Malbec wine personally 😉
Paper Products
I’ve highlighted the amazing items perfect for school — from sanitizing wipes to tissues. With flu season in full effect, and prices that can’t be beat, this area of the store has been getting lots of love!
Our family has also been loving Berkley Jensen paper towel and toilet paper. If you keep an eye on the ads, there often are coupons for these products or the Berkley Jensen brand, which help the savings add up.
In addition to our favorite products and features, families can also enjoy the bakery, center, optical, gas station, snack shop, and more. It’s definitely worth popping in and taking a look around.
