Greetings from Duesseldorf, Germany! Grew up in Endwell (Norton Ave) as an "IBM-child" late 70ies., father being on assignment as German engineer. Brother born in Binghampton. Later we moved to Austin, TX. Watching your videos brings back memories. Love to see, how everything seems to move forward in the region. Keep up the good work. 🙂

I NEVER BEEN TO BJ'S BEFORE.

Thanks for the tour!

Welcome 🤗

I've have been to bj's wholesale club

Costco is my favorite- best prices, selection, and food court. $1.50 dog n soda

Love BJ's having grown up in the Syracuse area. While I no longer live in the Binghamton area and was sad to hear of the closing of the Oakdale Mall, it's nice to see it being redeveloped and thriving once again. So many dead or dying malls face a sad fate with redevelopment plans that never end up happening, especially in the hands of out of area owners/developers, so this really shows how lucky the southern tier is to have some dedicated local developers that care about the community

Welcome

I’m happy to see life coming back to the oak dale mall. I mean commons. I left that area in 2008 and wondered if it would eventually completely close. Enjoy your videos!

all the clubs offer something different. i have costco and BJ's. Had Sam's in the Past. I like Costco best, 1.50 hot dog and a soda and I like their meat. BJ's has very inexpensive fresh orchids. BJ's also has a deli counter in my area, so you can have meats and cheeses cut fresh, and not in a huge package.

Great video.

Thanks!

Being from MA where bj's is from we have a ton good to see them spreading to NY

Excellent and really enticing tour, Frank. What doesn't BJ's have ? Could be a little exhausting if one, or a couple, or a group, might lose their focus. Finest use of the space.

Nice video.I am a member of Sam's Club paid $15 last month for a membership.I like the $5 Rotisserie Chicken.I only live 3 miles from one here in Raleigh NC.BJ's is good as well but 10 miles from me in Cary NC.

Love your videos but would love to see prices also please

Hope u had fun man! U make my day with ur uploads. Buona fortuna!

Frank! Always impressed with your small town videos of our area!!!

Glad you like them!

Hey there m😢friends

Some products are worth purchasing, but you have to look at the price per pound amd compare to grocery store products. I have shopped at Costco in southern California amd it was amazing. I would choose costco over BJs and BJs over Sam's club

Nice video, great aerial views as usual. One thing I am curious about, it looks like it is attached to the mall, but is it really? In the mall, is it still just a big blank section? Seems kind of weird.

@fgpalm

Sadly not connected to the mall at all. Waste IMO

I went to bjs in Philadelphia and I like it better because it's bigger I think and nicer workers

I think the gas station is ONLY for members. I checked around NYS and they have gas around $3.03/gallon

that is a nice club! Good selection of clothing. we don't have a Snack shop in the bronx. Looks like the prices are right and the giant cookie look good. Thanks for the tour.

If they have Canon printer inks comparable to Sam's Club prices, then I'll consider joining for that alone

It’s 2024 I refused to own a printer… 99.9% of things can stay on the screen these days

Nice tour. At one time or other I have had memberships in Costco, Sams Club and BJs, Costco is my favorite - nice prices, quality products from the Kirkland brand, the 4.99 rotisserie chicken, excellent wine selection and a food court with reasonable prices.

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THE BJ'S OPEN.

Great video, thanks! I wonder, does BJ's sell liquor? Cheers!

According to the app, the gas is 305 right now? But maybe it’s not updated.

The food was okay…mostly just hot dogs 🌭, cookies 🍪 and soda/water. Tasted fine.

How much money you save from membership?

@fgpalm

Idk but I’ve spent about $200 😂

BJ’s is best. They have a cold cult section, generally are more coupons too and bigger selections. They even have a snack bar.

Got a membership and they have screwed me out of my rewards twice now. Won’t be shopping there again and canceling my membership.

No.

It's really bad, isn't it.....I was in and out in just 10 minutes.

A year building this? Did I hear you right? In building trades this type of building is called a "90-day wonder". that's all of the time from bare ground until there's a store for whatever company can move into. I've never heard of these taking four months., How long did it take? Unless the builder hit an ancient Indian burial ground something is just wrong. Thanks for the tour. What camera resolution was this filmed in? 480p? Why post it with higher numbers on KZread? The sharpness won't change.

@fgpalm

4 ай бұрын

This was filmed in 4K 30 frames per second. Sometimes on KZread, you have to go in and manually change the resolution on the video when you first start watching it. Only self criticism is that the stabilization isn’t that great because I wasn’t using a gimbal inside because I didn’t want to get kicked out lol.

Wonderful

BJ'S is just plain bad, especially for Johnson city - Get Out of My Town.
