Well, it’s official! Even if the calendar doesn’t quite agree, summer is here. And it has hit North Carolina with a vengeance.
We are only on day 6 of summer break and I’m ready for fall. What the heck am I going to do to survive the next 10 weeks of “vacation”?!?
It’s too hot to do anything outside.
I’m a fair-skinned redhead convinced I will die from spontaneous combustion if I go outside when it’s over 90. Air conditioning and ice pops are my best friends.
My kids are suffering from cabin fever. And if I have to hear the Spongebob Squarepants theme song one more time I’m going to scream!
So to get away from my monsters 😉 wonderful daughters I decided to run to BJ’s Wholesale Club for my semi-weekly shopping trip.
Wandering around the store killing time before I had to return home, I stumbled across BJ’s seasonal section. Jackpot!
Everything you could want or need to make your kids’ summer break a success AND give you the “Cool Parent” status!
First of all, and most importantly IMHO, sunscreen! With a house full of fair-skinned beauties, AND melanoma on both sides of the family, we are extremely conscientious about putting on sunscreen every day. With a family of 7 that is a lot of sunscreen! Thankfully BJ’s sells sunscreen multi-packs at about the same price it would cost to purchase 1 bottle at the grocery store.
BJ’s has something for everyone to help make their summer enjoyable!
Survive the Summer Heat with BJ’s Wholesale Club
Here is just a sampling of what you can purchase for your family summer fun:
Banzai Hang N’10 Racing Slide (water slide), Banzai Book Blaster Battle Pack (water guns), Chalk-a-Doos Deluxe Chalk Tool Set, Jumparoo Air Pogo Jumper, Backyard Safari Adventures Combo Kit, Strato-Slam Rocket Ultimate Set, Build N’ Play Sandbox, Fubbles Big Bubble Bucket Fun Pack.
With this hot weather, the water guns were especially fun. And for once, everyone wanted to get sprayed!
BJ’s is the only Wholesale club that accepts manufacturer’s coupons!
My kids have been begging me to let them have a lemonade stand so when I saw the giant container of Country Time Pink Lemonade I knew I had to buy it! AND the best part? I had a manufacturer’s coupon, so I saved even more on top of the discounted price.
And who doesn’t LOVE S’mores? We have a great fire pit we bought at BJ’s last year and we have the most fun using it after the sun goes down. In fact, we had a S’mores party, using different kinds of candy and then voted on which one tasted the best. Have you tried making S’mores with Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups? OMG they are so good! They are also really good with Rolo’s and York Peppermint Patties! Hands down the Reese’s S’mores were the favorite.

Oh this looks like a fun summer package! Wish there was a BJ's near us in San Antonio. I want some of those Strato-Slam rockets.
I hear you on the sunscreen… we went out last week, got all excited about canoeing and forgot the sunscreen. We have all been hurting for several days!
I look forward to seeing your photos of the fun you have with this kit!
Michelle at An Organ says
oh I so wish it was warm here at the moment! I'm in Australia and it is so cold (well as cold as Sydney gets!) Enjoy!
Tiffany says
Oh my goodness, we so need this! We've been dying in the heat this week.
Kelley says
Okay.. that slip-n-slide looks SO FUN! I need to go stock up on fun water toys for Lavery's mermaid birthday party next weekend!! Fingers crossed we get a little break from this 100 degree HEAT!
Robin Rue (@masshole says
Oh man, we JUST let our membership lapse, too. I always got great deals when I shopped there.
Lindsey @ Redhead Ba says
I love that BJs has smaller sets of items, but still at the club prices. And they have SO MUCH to choose from.
Debra says
That's a great incentive to join. We used to be BJs members – it looks like it might be time to go back!
Stacie @ Divine Life says
BJ's sounds great. I'll have to check if we have any in my area.
Catherine S says
It looks like they have a lot of great items. I love that you can use coupons. I need to see if they have one in my area.
Carly Brydon says
We'll be spending a lot of time by the pool to beat this summer heat. It's crazy how hot it is already and it's not even July yet!
Pam says
We love slip and slides at our house. The sidewalk chalk is always a hit too.
Marcie W. says
You scored some awesome summer fun items! We visit our local club store once every couple of weeks to stock up on bulk essentials.
Lyndsey Jones says
These are all great ways to stay cool and happy during the summer heat. It's vital that we all stay hydrated and cool.

We don't have a BJ's but they sure do look like they have the summer fun covered! My kids would love that slip and slide!

I have heard good things about BJ's from friends… and wish there was one near me 🙁

I love this. Wish we had one near us.

I've never heard of BJ's Wholesale. The wholesale place near us is Sam's which we use occasionally. I would love to check out a BJ's.
Ora Lee Gurr says
No BJ's Wholesale around here, but I wish there was! We were just talking about a water slide and water guns yesterday. It's definitely the season to stay cool and remember the sunscreen.

So many fun ideas! We don't have a bjs here but I just bought those s'mores kits yesterday and look forward to making lots this summer!
Chrystal | Nevermore says
What a fun summer package! We have a pool and so does grandma so thats generally where kiddo spends her summers.

Childhood just isn't the same without a slip n slide. You look like you're ready for a great summer!

I must say I am impressed. I've never been to a BJs (there's none nearby) but really wish we had one!
Beth@FrugalFroggie says
BJs wholesale club sounds like a great place to get activities to enjoy during the summer.
Seattle Travel Blogg says
Those water guns look super fun! It sounds like a great way to cool down.

We've got a similar wholesale club and we go there all the time! That type of store has such great deals!

We are very happy BJ's members for years now. We love the great deals and the nice service. I love the seasonal items they stock. There's always something new at a great price.
Toni | BoulderLocavo says
I don't think we have a BJ's in our area but I sure wish we did in seeing everything you found there! Can't believe your temps. Glad you found some water fun.
Raijean says
Now that's the perfect way to beat the heat! I'm going to check BJ's out and see what I can find for the boychild.
Kiwi says
Look at the those fun summertime toys!! I didnt know BJ's had all of that, we have only a few of them here in Atlanta.
Ann Bacciaglia says
I wish we had a BJ's near us. I love to make a huge slip and slide in my back yard for the kids.
Shannon Gurnee says
My mom lives in Florida and talks about how much she loves this store all the time. Looks like they have some great stuff for the summer!
Rachel Ferrucci says
I love BJ's- I call it the $100 club because I can't go in without spending at least $100. I go every week to do a lot of my grocery shopping and you can always find great deals on seasonal items
mym0mmybrain says
I know, right?!? For us, since we have a large family, I rarely get out of there under $200! Five kids eat a lot!! I love that you can buy not only bulk items, but smaller sizes too. Because even a family of 7 doesn't need a gallon of ketchup, lol.
Latoicha says
BJ's is actually my favorite wholesale retailer. I wish there was one closer to me. Great finds there!
Angela says
We don't have one in our area, but it sounds great! Love your summer packages, looks like you will have an awesome summer!
Scott says
That looks like a lot of fun for a hot day. My kids are very fond of water balloons. Another fun summer activity!
Suzi says
OMG the Slip 'n Slide brings back some fun memories from when I was little. It wasn't a fancy one though, just a glorified long shower curtain. But so much fun! This one looks like a much better option.
Stacie says
My kids would love these toys. I'll have to check out BJ's Club haven't been to one in a long time!
