Wholesale Stores in North Wales, PA

“Just make sure you get the credit card thing before you go. Costco must have very specific arrangements with very specific credit card companies. But my suspicion is they passed that along to the consumer. And make a few bucks along the way. Aside from that, the Kirkland brand is very good quality. And it's good place to go when you want to buy larger quantities”

“Today I was tested for hearing loss. Annalise gave me a thorough test that showed I had some loss but Annalise said it was not sufficient to require hearing aids. She could just as easily said I needed aids and charged me $1600. However, her integrity, as well as Costco's , exceeded what could be corporate greed. I will be tested in the future and, I assume, I will eventually need hearing aids. You can be sure I will go to Costco when that days comes.”

“We visited Costco today at the North Wales store. We filled up our gas tank for $3.19 per gallon. I wanted to walk through Costco taking my time to see what the store was offering. They have eyewear and hearing centers. They offer testing and fitting for each of these services. The electronics section was full of just about anything you need. TV's of all sizes. We saw an LG 86" TV on sale for $999.99. The last time we bought a tv we purchased a 50" and if I remember correctly our Sony was that price. Do you need a computer? They have them and then some. Apple iPhones and Macs were plentiful. Costco has clothing at great prices. Some name brands are available. Nice looking hoodies for &9.99. Bulk food products throughout the store. It is $60.00 to be a member. My wife shops here from time to time. We recovery the fee with discounted merchandise without any problem. Today was Saturday and as expected Costco was busy. We moved around fairly easy. Check out was as fast as I have been through. I enjoyed my experience at Costco. There are many areas in the store I have not reported on in this review like fresh meats, seafood, frozen foods, bulk soda, juices, and many drug store items. I recommend Costco. We had a good time spending and saving money. Enjoy!”

“I'm a bit surprised by the strongly (even passionately) worded reviews, both positive but especially negative. First, this is a popular store, for obvious reasons. So yes, the parking lot can be crowded. I address this by parking on the outer fringes of the lots. (The walk is good for me at 65, and there's lots of room.) By the way, I frequently take a handicapped person to shop with me, and never have a problem dropping her off or getting a handicap space. There is always a scooter to ride; a couple times a you g person went to the lot to bring one in for her. Yes,the customer service lines can get long, especially around the holidays. They move quickly. Return policies are extremely liberal. Generally speaking, the store has downsized the bread and baked goods area, with fewer fresh selections. (This has been accompanied by a significant expansion of snack foods, like chips, popcorns, etc.) That said, I have never had a problem getting a loaf of bread (many selections), rolls, or a dessert. Yes, custom cakes must be ordered. But there are always enough cakes, pies, etc., to get dessert for a family meal or event. Meats and fish selections are outstanding. Fruit selections are very good. Vegetable selections are rather poor; not much selection and a very small area--basically a small cold room, with a stand for tomatoes/cucumbers outside. If you're looking for a nice array of good veggies, this is not a one stop shop; I usually head up to Wegman's to supplement. This store "gives up" a lot of food space to clothing, household products and durables (everything from toys and books to seasonal products and hardware). My experience is that BJs is just the opposite. I am probably in the group that would prefer more food, and less hardware or clothing or "stuff," but what they have is usually very good, changes frequently, and covers a lot of bases. In the meantime, you can reliably get great, inflation busting deals on excellent products: baking supplies, dairy and meats, olive oil (including Phillipo Berio Extra Light-just the best), roast chickens, cheeses and lunch meats, paper and cleaning products, pet supplies, grains and essential canned goods (like tomatoes). No store is perfect, and this Costco isn't either. It's a warehouse store, so it's not a "one stop" shop, quite likely. But theprices are great, lines move quickly, employees are friendly and helpful, and it's clean. So my verdict: it's definitely an above average "warehouse" store.”
