Do any of the warehouse clubs enable you to be a member and shop only by the internet, like I shop with Amazon?

Since BJ's, Costco, and Sam's all offer online shopping, you can join any of them and only shop online. But there's the matter of in-store pricing vs online pricing and shipping.
I have a Costco membership, so I'll speak to that. Online prices are generally higher than in-store prices and frequently involve shipping fees that can be quite high. Additionally, product selection varies between in-store and online shopping. I shop online only when they offer something I can't get in-store and that only happens maybe once or twice a year.
Browse through the products for each store and see which one offers you better selections and deals. Costco and Sam's both have memberships on sale (see posts 70, 43, 72).
Check out the front page of this thread for detailed info about these stores and their current sales.
