Quick BJ's Stop

BJ's is a store that if you aren't careful you can drop about half your paycheck before you know it!  There are a few things that definitely make it worth the $45 membership fee every year, Crystal Light is the main one, but here's what I was able to pick up the other day...

1 pkg Chocolate Chips $7.99 (I'm going to keep track and see if this is really worth the price.  I'm thinking it will be, but I want to make sure)
1 bag FL Navel Oranges (only place I've seen them so far this year, and they are DELICIOUS!) $6.99
2-2 pk pkgs Pillsbury Pie Crusts $4.59 ea - $3/2 BJ's Coupon (there is also a $0.50/2 MC online) = 2/$6.18 (would be 2/$5.68 with MC)
