Are you feeling like you are missing out on all the amazing markdowns BJ's has every week because you are not a BJ's member?
If not, you can take a glimpse at our recent posts here, and I bet you will be thinking of grabbing the FREE BJ's membership here.
Or if you are super cheap like me– no shame here; you can read below for ways to shop at BJ's Wholesale Club without a membership.
SHOP FOR ONE DAY
*UPDATE: BJ's Now Offers a one-day shopping pass for online shopping only. The good news with this is you can choose curbside pickup to avoid the hefty shipping charges. You can also stack coupons like the deals here.
ABOUT Online Shopping Pass:
BJ's 1-Day Online Pass allows non-Member guests to experience the benefits of BJ's Online Access Membership for 24 hours without purchasing a membership from BJs.com. For example: If you enrolled in BJ's 1-Day Online Pass at 11:59 pm, you can shop and order from BJs.com till 11:59 pm the next day.
- Guests enrolled in BJ's 1-Day Online Pass are restricted to our “Ship It” service only. Free “In-Club Pickup” and “Same-Day Delivery” are not permitted.
- Guests enrolled in BJ's 1-Day Online Pass are not able to use clipped coupons but will receive BJ's wholesale price for “Ship It” orders.
When you shop online, be sure to Sign up With Rakuten, so you get cash back for shopping at BJs and so many other retailers. You can sign up through my referral link here and get $20! ( Right now at BJs, you earn 1.5% cashback)
You do not need a membership to shop at your nearest BJ's. You can go through the entire store, find what you like and see if it is even worth the membership.
If you find something you like and do not have a friend with you who has a BJ's membership, you can go to the member service desk and grab a one-day shopping pass.
When you use a one-day shopping pass at BJs you will be charged a 20% surcharge over and above BJ's listed prices on all merchandise except alcohol.
If you decide to buy a membership seven days after shopping with your one-day pass that 20% surcharge will be applied to your membership.
ORDER ONLINE
BJs recently added a new membership option, online access only membership. For $10 for the whole year, you can shop online only. I know it's not FREE, but it ends up being $0.83 per month to shop online at BJs and get member prices.
The downside is many items have a shipping cost. You can shop online for ONE day for FREE- which they recently added this year 2020.
Not all items found in a club are available online. It's worth looking into, though because there are still awesome online clearance deals.
3-MONTH FREE TRIAL
Check your local newspapers for the three-month free trial memberships. I haven't seen one online in months. It is worth calling your local club to see if they are currently running a free membership trial.
I was told by a BJ's employee you can only get a free trial when you go to your local club's customer service desk.
This past year BJs did a Welcome One and All event for the first time where shoppers didn't need any membership to walk into the store and shop and no surcharge when purchasing items.
You can get a $20 BJ's Membership deal here.

Ham Specials at BJ’s Wholesale Club
I am desperate to purchase one Boston cream pie for a very special person. I only find it sold locally at BJs but I am not a member. Is there a way to make this one time purchase?
You will pay a surcharge. O
Don’t worry about it! : http://essentialtremorsdiet.site
Hi, I ordered online did not receive an email confirmation. I’ve tried every way possible to contact BJ’S. Should I just cancel the credit card payment?
Are you talking about a regular order of items or a membership? Any emails will go to the email you used when signing up for a BJs online account.
Hi Tasia,
I know this may sound silly but if you do your shopping online how do you get your merchandise whether it’s food or Furniture home? I am especially interested in the food. Thank you
If you choose BJs pick up and pay you will go in and get your order. BJs may now be bringing it out to you if you use the app.
I would like to know if I sign up for the $25 membership do I have to to go to bjs to pick up my card.? I don’t have a BJ’s near me and I’m home bound so having to go to the store is not an option for me but I can shop on line. Please help
You would need to go to BJs to pick the card up. But if you are only shopping online BJs offers an online membership tap this link and you can do it all online. https://fave.co/2KlIAxt
Actually no they don’t offer anything for free not even a one day shopping pass
how do I get a one day pass
Can I do a 1 day shop for free? I read YES but all items are 20% surcharged. Was curious if I purchased gift card for $100 BJ price $95.99 x20% =$115.19 for $100 GC?
Yes there is a surcharge. You may be better off doing the $10 online only membership. The items you need are they available online?
Yes, problem is I’m Canadian but live 30 mins away from the border BJs and no delivery to Canada. I’m just looking to see, because I’m planning a Disney vacation for my little one, about getting about $3k or more discounted Disney cards. Save a Few bucks.
The caveat on the $25 membership is that you have to agree that you are getting that first year’s membership discount at that rate because it’s contingent upon them charging the credit car you use for that initial membership a SECOND years full price membership fee the following year, take it out on the first day of the month that your membership expires, which is technically before your membership expires. so the first year is $25, but at the current rate of the following year being mandatory, you’re only getting $25 as a fee because you agreed the next year to pay a $50 fee. Although the contingency is that you enroll in auto pay meeting auto renew. It doesn’t say anything about your ability to cancel auto renew at any time during that year or not. So I wonder if they are bamboozling people
You can cancel the membership at any time.
Thanks for posting!
cool thanks for posting
Thanks for the info. Also for keep us updated on everything.
I had no idea about online only membership. I do prefer shopping in store though.
It’s kinda cool they are offering that right?! I prefer to shop in club too that is where all the deals are at! But for those who want to cash in on some of the appliance or furniture deals online it’s a great savings.
I did not know either. Thanks
You’re welcome Joan 🙂 Have a very Merry Christmas 🙂
Didn’t know about the online only membership.
That’s a great deal for people who shop online, only $10 for the year. That’s awesome
