BJ’s Wholesale Club will be pausing their membership requirement for the first time ever from October 15 – November 4. This means that North Carolina shoppers (including those who don’t have a BJ’s membership) will be able to shop at BJs, without any fees or commitment!

Update: Some readers went to local BJ's locations on Monday, October 15 and were told that this promotion did not start until Thursday, October, 19. The corporate BJ's communication manager has confirmed with WRAL that the promotion did start on October 15 and runs through November 4. If there is any confusion with your local store, I suggest you ask to speak with the store manager who can then speak with their corporate office for confirmation.

During the “Welcome One and All” event, all shoppers are invited to visit their local club to shop BJ’s and learn about its new digital conveniences. BJ’s has recently expanded its offering of convenient online shopping options for members including Shop BJs.com – Pick Up in Club.

“At BJ’s, we’re committed to providing unbeatable value and outstanding service,” said Lee Delaney, executive vice president, Chief Commercial Officer. “We’ve transformed our clubs with convenient new services and great products, giving members more ways to save time and money.
