Is PriceSmart worth the US$40 yearly fee for 1 person buying normal quantities of stuff? What about purchasing appliances (fridge)? Is it better to buy PriceSmart or a regular local company?
very small selection of appliances at PS, Plaza Lama and Jumbo have better selectionIs PriceSmart worth the US$40 yearly fee for 1 person buying normal quantities of stuff? What about purchasing appliances (fridge)? Is it better to buy PriceSmart or a regular local company?
I would have to agree with you; except at XMas when the spiral sliced ham, 3 lb boneless butterball turkey breast and pecan pie was niceI would say the only things that would be worth to buy there for a single person are toilet paper, detergent, dish soap, bath soap. (I like certain brands and it's always cheaper and a per unit basis than buying from the store.)
Throw Unidos in there also............very small selection of appliances at PS, Plaza Lama and Jumbo have better selection
There are 2 of us and I don't find it economical. However, I do like to buy non-perishables in bulk just to "get 'er done." But even the Price Smart Goya beans in bulk (4 cans) are more expensive than the indivdual generic ones at Bravo.Welp, I don't really use toilet paper, I hose it off..lol
I buy the Franks Hot Sauce (my addiction) but I have a friend get it for me.
I was just checking their website and it seems that maybe joining is not good for me at this time. The only stuff I see that interests me is the sharp cheddar cheese and a few other small items.
You're as bad as I am. I love the blocks of cheddar Cheese.Welp, I don't really use toilet paper, I hose it off..lol

Does every person who wants to enter there have to have his/her own card? I mean, if you have a card but want to go shopping with your wife, she must has a card too to enter the store with you? What if your wife wants to use your card? What if somebody else gives me his card, can I enter with it or it must belong to me and they check it?Is PriceSmart worth the US$40 yearly fee for 1 person buying normal quantities of stuff?

That's exactly what I ordered. First time. I don't expect any issues, there's nothing on the listing that says keep it refrigerated. I'll let you know.JD, how does the cheese from Amazon work out being shipped? Does it arrive ok? I like their Havarti and Baby Swiss. They also have Extra Sharp Cheddar which I really like.
If you want to know what they have just look on their website and avoid even entering. You are welcome to enter with anyone who has a card.When they built their first store many years ago, I went it, they said a membership card is needed. I said let me go in first so I can see if it's worth it to buy a membership. They let me in, I walked around every shelf and I did not find any item that I wanted to buy there and I did not see anything that was worth to buy a membership, so I said No Thanks and left.
When they built another store in Zona Universitaria a few years ago, I was passing by one day so I decided to park and go check it out. I went in, they said a membership card is needed. I said let me go in first so I can see if it's worth it to buy a membership. This time they said NO, so I said Ok F*ck You and left.
