I don't get it. Well, I do "get it" as far as membership warehouses go it's just that this one isnt really that good lmao. Well the customer service was good - the person who helped me at the CS desk was friendly and well-informed (I joined online and she told me when to actually expect the physical card in the mail). Other than the CS rep, it's a pretty spartan experience and really just a bigger Walmart. Which duh. Waltons and all that. But it doesn't even have the stuff I would get at WalMart. None of the fresh or frozen foods were enticing to me. Many of the other products were slightly overpriced as compared to Costco or BJs. I did get some things for the convenience factor though: -humongous jug of Fabuloso -Dog treats shaped like churros (I love churros and so does Wesley) -eggs - And a Frigidaire portable fridge/freezer for the tractor trailer that I ordered online last week when it was on sale. I had to join the club to get the product. Ah - I've answered my own question. This place is best for one-off purchases. Verdict: Sam's prioritizes its house brand (Makers Mark) over all else. Many of these brands are actually big names in disguise. However I don't have the time or interest in seeing what is and isn't beyond a cursory internet look AND Walmart hasn't quite built up my trust enough on their house items (I'm still irritated at the Great Value pasta noddles I bought a few years ago) for me to go all in on Makers Mark like I would a Costco Kirkland item. So I predict I'll use my membership sparingly and strategically. You do you though. read more

Sam's Club - What started it all. - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

It's always a solid place to shop. The store is spacious, organized, and has a great selection of everything. It has groceries, household items, snacks, and bulk deals that actually save you money. Checkout is usually quick, especially with the Scan & Go option, which makes the whole shopping trip so much easier.Most of the staff are friendly and helpful, and the store stays pretty clean. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because some items can be hit or miss with availability, and a few sections get crowded during peak hours. Overall, it's reliable, convenient, and definitely worth the membership. I always find what I need and leave feeling like I got good value. read more

I go To Sam's Club once a month. The members mark brand is just as good if not better than name brand. The prices are great. So much cheaper than the grocery store. They have a good selection of products and I think the fresh chicken breasts are better than Purdue and all the expensive brands. I save a lot of money on groceries monthly and their rotisserie cooked chicken is so much tastier than Costco. I prefer Sam's over Costco and BJs. Prices are better than Costco too read more

When you go to the freeosk located near the frozen food section, scan your membership card to claim your freebies. Today, I received a K Cup with French dark roast coffee- my favorite blend! Oh happy day! Fortunately I own a Keurig machine otherwise I would've been disappointed. read more

TL;DR Sam's Club is struggling. Check your postal mail or credit card issuer for free or heavily discounted membership offers if you're considering signing up. Since it replaced the old Ford plant back in 2010, this Sam's Club at Edison Towne Square has been Costco's only real direct competitor in Edison (since the BJ's across Rt 1 has no gas station and is on life support). Now that the dust has settled, there isn't much of a contest any more. Both the pricing and the selection are noticeably subpar compared to Costco's: you won't find the kind of premium curated quality that Costco has or the same variety of local, organic, and ethnic foods either. The cereal aisle is pretty horrifying as the selection is mostly candy-flavored. My overall impression is that the inventory caters more to the Walmart crowd than to the Whole Foods crowd. A lot of the durable goods are priced closer to MSRP than to wholesale pricing, which makes me wonder if customers just aren't bothering to compare prices. I see a lot of frequent small discounts on high-denomination gift cards like Southwest or Uber, but other wholesalers and retailers also have these. Fortunately, this location still has the $5 rotisserie chicken that Costco is known for, and unlike Costco the food court here has somehow still managed to suppress any noticeable price increases to its menu, e.g. vanilla froyo is still $1. As a bonus, this location also has free wi-fi. I've been to this location during all times of the day, and it's a total ghost town every time compared to Costco. I even came two days before Thanksgiving and there were virtually no lines at customer service or checkout, which is very telling. Masking is a crapshoot among customers, although most store associates appear to be complying. Unlike at Costco, you don't need a membership card to walk in through the front door and look around. Members can use self-checkout or scan-and-go to avoid waiting altogether. The customer experience is probably slightly less stressful as a result, though I personally don't expect to be renewing my club membership when it expires this year. read more

Sam's Club - screw ball tasting - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

Let me start out by saying that I love the variety and scan & go offered at Sam's Club vs Costco. However, Costco is 10/10 with their customer service. Whereas Sam's club in Edison specifically is lacking. We were looking for Enfamil gentlease baby formula. The app said we can order and they would have it ready in a couple hours. But we wanted to get it ourselves since we were already shopping. Asked an associate, he was pleasant and said that sometimes formula is available in the front of the store. So my husband went to check. Didn't see anything but asked a worker. She was dismissive. My husband asked for a manager which she claimed to be one. (Young, petite, mixed. Didn't get her name) my husband asked if she could verify if any was in stock. She said she was busy and didn't have time. Not sure who put this woman in a position of oversight but she's horrible. Corporate, please vet your management team better. She was completely unprofessional. Costco would never! read more

Good place to stock up! A little further than Costco for me. Both clubs have different items. They also have different in store specials. Sam's club seems to have more instant coupons. They also take different credit cards than Costco. More pay options here. Store is clean and staff is helpful. read more

I'm a Costco guy and visited this sams club location to check .. it was awesome ! It was almost FREE monthly membership.. it was just about 30$ and they give cash back too. You get almost everything just like Costco with less crowd and really quick exit ... they have diary , meat , bakery , bottle shop , electronics and many more stuff . Love their app , where you can scan all ur items and pay . Parking is good . Overall a good experience.. read more

If you're looking to join Sam's club, check out Groupon for discounted membership specials! Signing up is painless & most memberships allow you to add on a second complimentary membership. I've been to a few different Sam's Clubs but the Edison location is my go to. This club is always clean and the staff is friendly. The app makes shopping here a breeze. I skip the line with "scan and go" or order ahead for pick up. They also have a gas station that always has cheap rates. I usually shop at Sam's for produce, dairy and meat in bulk. Their prices are cheaper than most other wholesale clubs. Definitely consider Sam's if you're interested in shopping in bulk! read more

Customer service never picks up the phone. No matter what time you call. I been trying to call for the past 3 days and no luck.

I'm a club member !!!! My job offered employees the choice of various "bulk shopping" stores to choose from as an employee benefit (1st year membership free). Due to the location I chose Sam's Club; great choice. The club was very easy to navigate through. I especially loved the huge produce and dairy rooms. Unlike other stores I've visited where refrigerators stored the dairy and produce products at this location it's a temperature controlled room. The prices were very reasonable even cheaper than my local supermarket for certain items. It's clean, quite, well stocked and organized, smooth check out and the app is pretty darn cool!! While I was shopping I ran into the tire center, let's just say I will be getting 4 tires installed next week at better price than a tire shop. Very friendly customer service workers, helpful and knowledgeable of the facility. Overall I am happy that I chose Sam's Club and making it my new bulk shopping home. read more

Everything went well the prices are great the products are always good,the meats are always fresh

Sam's club is my favorite place to buy bulk. I feel it's much quieter than Costco, with a selection that is just as good as BJs. On weekends you can try a plethora of samples, but they also have some sample carts for weekday shoppers too. I feel I get a great value when I shop here, especially in their bakery. You can't beat their pricing for cupcakes and sheet cakes. You can also have them make one from a selected theme in the book by the bakery department and they will make it to order, for the same pricing as the grab and go items! I also enjoy using the scan and go app. I have reusable bags so as I shop, I scan the items I am purchasing on the app and drop them right into my shopping bags. Once I'm done shopping I check out right on the app, my card is saved so I only need to give the three digit security code, and I'm able to leave, no hassle of waiting on a long line! You just show your phone to the person checking receipts and they look for a couple of key items and you're on your way. 5/5 read more

Have enjoyed shopping Sam's Club for many years They're selection & quality is extremely good! Prices are so affordable... Enjoy samples when offered.... Trying a product is such a help, I can decide on the spot if I like it and buy the product..Sam's Club Bakery is outstanding! Bakery products are delicious and they'll try their best to create what you desire...for my family SAM'S BAKERY THE GO TO FOR ALL OUR PARTY BAKED GOODS! read more

Sam's Club is really trying to step up their game - the quality of their stuff has been getting better and better over the past couple years. Their members mark brand has become quite reliable and their prices are really good. The produce is fresh and they have good selection throughout the store. Overall, I'm a big fan. I have to minus one star though because even during a pandemic, they require you to switch carts at checkout read more

Sam's club in Edison is a Toxic work environment. The behavior of the leadership is third world. The lead speaks to employees as if they did not matter. The rules are not the same for everyone. It is a popularity contest. The job is not bad but the leadership is lacking. read more

The store is great but when you have to wait on a huge line just to get out, it Really annoys me. If they have to check if you stole anything they should have more checkers at the door. Sometimes they have two but they are really slow. That's one thing I hate about this store. Prices are good but make sure you add on extra ten minutes waiting to get out of there! I might join Costco. read more

Worst treatment by manager when my pick up order, placed yesterday, was not ready at 11 am as promised, 11:10 am,11:20 am, 11:30 am. Can't cancel it's paid for.

Waste of time, never again Update Order arrives but the staff person cannot check me out for some reason... still here read more

Ridiculous!!!! Theres 10 gas pumps at this location and only 3 of them are being used! Everytime I come here they only have 3-4 pumps that are working. Its 330pm and you only have 3 pumps working and 1 guy running the 3 of them? That's absolutely ridiculous! Theres tons of traffic and it's all because of the gas station. Coming here the minute they open is the only time you can come in and out of this place. Edison is already a traffic jam. Some how it had made it to the gas station. HIRING MORE PEOPLE MAY HELP YOU GUYS OUT....But what do I know. I'm just a annoyed customer that has to wait a half hour to fill up like I'm charging a tesla. ‍‍‍‍ Edison, NJ read more

First time going to sam club and the place is clean. Experience is horrible. Waiting to get fresh squeezed orange juice. The line is long and I thought he would give it to us. Nope he put it on the shelf. What the heck you don't say anything. Very unprofessional. . read more

This Sam's, at one point a few years back, had the convince of fewer people than Costco. It's now gotten busier, maybe due to the cheaper Sam's membership prices? Things are still a little disorganized and some staff looked stressed out. The self checkout line setup is confusing and not much room to put down scanned items. No Apple/Samsung pay. Staff eyes every item you scanned. Have your receipt ready for the exit employee to scan receipt and items on the cart. Costco have a self checkout food court too that won't charge you for the wrong item like it happened to me at Sam's on several times. read more

I understand the cart system with quarters allowing them not to hire Cart workers but this is just disgusting and happens everytime I'm here. It's not my job to clean up trash in order to shop in your store.. read more

Great prices! Quality foods. Friendly cashiers! I would've given 5 stars,but the Edison location,apparently sometimes has wifi issues? Making the 'self scan' check out,impossible. read more

This place is very good. Most of the prices here are competitive, but that depends on what you're trying to get. Some of the prices here are cheaper than BJ's, like a jar of mixed nuts. They even carried some items that BJ's doesn't sell anymore, like my favorite snack, Combos! That's a PLUS. Customer service was just okay. The location itself is perfect for those who have to drive on either Old Post Road, US-1 or NJ-27. The exterior of the building looked kinda modern too. Happy Shopping! read more

Its Mess everywhere . Poor service attitude ，The guest in front of me paid in cash, then the cashier ask for supervisor ，I waited there for more than 10 minutes before the supervisor lady came over, without any apology, very bad attitude . It looks like I keep her busy, Very poor shopping experience. read more

New club member...was suppose to get a $10 promotional credit in the membership deal...after speaking with 5 club reps I still haven't gotten it and no one really seems to care...worst organized business I've dealt with in a long time...and this for a wholesale store that's a lot farther than the other 2...what a headache....won't be renewing and possibly asking for my membership money back...lousy experience... read more

Sam's club should just continue closing their stores. I spent all day calling the fire department and the front desk and no one will answer Tire department wants to take three hours to install tires AND schedule repair 1 week in advance. No compassion or help for a member who is stopping on the highway every 30 minutes to refill the tire When asked about the phone calls. The manager blamed the phone system and said the phones don't ring but if he happens to see the light flashing, he will pick up the phone otherwise calls go missed Very very disappointing. So many businesses went out of business and these guys are trying their best to alienate customers. read more

Offers a variety of items beyond food products. Got a great deal on a TV and gazebo here. They offer food samples on occasion and every so often have a special event going on toward the exit, including free doughnuts! Stock up on supplies and try not to buy a tub of ice cream! read more

Sam's Club - Store front. - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Edison, New Jersey

As you may know, Sam's Club is a warehouse, members-only store owned by Walmart. Every since the Sam's in Linden closed unexpectedly, I've been coming here and it starting to grow on me. This store sells many things and has a robust meat section. Their steaks and other butcher items are great cuts. They prices are really great. They have good buys on dry goods such as cereal as spices. This location can get overwhelming especially with the lines but if you go when they open it's not half bad. read more

I came to return some Bounty paper towels but the manager said he could only take 9 of them back. All The towels were still in their packaging and were clean and unsoiled. Perfectly resellable condition. He said something like they were not an insurance company. I was shocked and very disappointed. This is not acceptable read more

I was trying to use Sam's club same day delivery. According to their policy they supposed to deliver in a radius of 15 miles from the club. I lived about 9 miles from Sam's club in Edison but was surprise to find that they are not delivering to my neighborhood. Why are you spending all that money on advertising "Same day delivery" if you are not doing it in the end? read more

Apparently the eye doctors just give out eyeglasses prescriptions without signing the prescription! Who knew i could just waste my hard earned money as a disabled woman who just needed to see. When called and informed about their negligence of handing out unsigned prescriptions, they said they couldnt help me today when today is my only day off for a good couple weeks. Can't contact the doctor with the phone number they have for employment records to fill one measly prescription for one patient they lacked to properly take care of. The doctor couldnt even be bothered to come in to the exam either, it was done through telehealth and still with the least amount of work she had to do in her whole life, couldnt manage to even electronically sign the prescription before handing it to a paying patient. Disgusting customer service and lack of empathy. 0/10 would never recommend to anyone. Not everyone has the luxury of having multiple days off to waste on one task because the employee couldnt do her job properly. Eye care is medical care and you should have the hospitality and responsibility to treat it as such. i dont have glasses cause they look cool. read more

Thanks to whoever designated this store should get a gasoline station! The store is rather typical and the staff are friendly and it's great to be able to pick up a slice of pizza or a whole take-and-bake pie on the cheap. That's always the great thing about Sam's Club. You pay your dues, and they might seem high, but you get those savings back quickly, especially when you buy gasoline. I had to ask how to get to the station on the way out. At many stores, it's rather close but it was practically on route 1 and that was quite a distance from the store. It was busy but things moved quickly. I wasn't sure how it would work since this was the first time buying gas at a Sam's Club in Jersey. The price was about 12 cents cheaper than on the turnpike. The attendant was really friendly, but I think I might have confused him for a minute. He scanned both cards much more quickly than I ever do, so it must be some custom setup for NJ. I felt a bit like royalty having someone pump gas for me after all these years. That's all. You are dismissed. read more

My family and I were just there and were so horrified of how many people were there without keeping any 6ft distance and not keeping their mask fully on. We basically run away from this place. They need to get it in order and monitor how many people they let in and make sure they keep their mask on read more

In my own opinion this store is very good, frienly cashiers they have almost everything, but there is a little problem at the gas station for third time that I put some gas they have a tendency to leave the gas hash opened and uncuped, look out. read more

One thing I will give them over Costco is that even if you do not have a membership they will let you in to shop (you just pay 10% more). As far as selection goes, I found great deals on a tea kettle, socks, body wash, and razors for men and for women. read more

Blackberries Strawberries Bananas Apricots Lemons Pears (Various kinds) Large Frozen Fruit bags for smoothies Other notable mentions would be: onions, bags of small sweet peppers, celery, tuna, and pistachios.

Great store. Great buys. Horrible shopping experience. Every time you go there they have people trying to get you to sign up for a credit card , then after you check out you have these guys on the way out who try to sell you home improvements, you say no and they still follow you to your car, and if your lucky enough to get away they then have people outside the store asking for donations. Once this membership is up I am just going to stick with Cosco. read more

It was a nice day to shop for some groceries, but unfortunately, my experience wasn't so nice. First of all, be careful when you shop for tomatoes, I found a case with mold growing on the stems. Secondly, most of the employees have no respect for customers. The lady standing by the hand/face cream section bothered my family saying "I have to give everyone in the store a sample of this", and I quickly turned away. Lastly, the checkout. The lines were so long and nobody bothered to open a new register. When we finally got to check out, the cashier named Alvaro seemed a bit off, like he was pissed at the previous customer. When he was scanning our items, he yelled something like "...I will strangle you if you don't..." Then when he finished our order, he just gave us a blank stare. We said "have a nice day", and he just stood there without a word. Needless to say, I won't be coming back. read more
