BJs and Costco OWN this market.

I cannot stand it when a company has a nice niche and is making money, they feel they HAVE to move into the other big name's territory. Look at Cardi's. They have a nice lock on the South Coast area. Bernie and Phil and Jordan's have a nice niche up here. Cardi's tried and FAILED MISERABLY to expand up here and for WHAT? I do NOT feel bad for them. You're making enough money in YOUR area, stay there and STFU!

But at least they don't settle the same problem the way the criminal element does....as far as we know. Where is the OTHER Jordan's brother REALLY? Did he stop on the Pike at a toll booth and.....

 

I haven't been in a Sam's since they closed the one on Rt 1 in Saugus. There really wasn't anything special about Sam's to make it worth much of a drive or cost of a membership. At least Costco and BJs carry different things that makes it worth having a membership to both.
