Bingo Lakewood has been coding as grocery

And has no tax or bottle deposit on Seltzer! Not to mention the tax rate on taxable items is much lower!

A large part of Lakewood (including Bingo) is in the UEZ. Sales tax is half the regular rate, instead of 6.625% its 3.3125%.

From what I've seen it's Grocery with Chase and Wholesale with Amex.

For which items?

Costco, KRM, and Bingo each have specific items that have better pricing in their stores.

I'm always baffled by this widespread conflation.

As they opened in BoroPark, they advertised that they were a kosher Costco. That's bothered me since day 1.

+1.

Bingo is not even a wholesale store compared to Sam's /BJs/ Costco....

They have purchasing power. That's pretty much it. (Also KRM is cheaper on certain items).

One thing they're similar to Costco is that you walk out with stuff you don't really need

They also have a dearth of sales people.

In general. Do you have a list of the top of your head?

Costco: in bulk: flour, rice feta cheese, beer
Bingo: their brand items may be a better price than kosher branded items in any store.
KRM: IDK what's a better price. I like the feel of the store; I've been shopping there for 30 years. They have helpful sales people. They carry my hechsher meat. The milk products are the same price as Bingo.
