My wife and I joined 10 years ago when it was called the United Consumers Club, we saved the membership with our first purchase of a couch and a wing back recliner. We had shopped all over and had decided on these particular pieces of furniture, UCC had exactly the same furniture for $1500 less than the best local price we could find. So we paid the $1500 membership then and have maintained the $100 per year maitainance ee since then.

Particular categories of merchandise ae much cheaper at DB (furniture, home improvement, tools, jewelry, home decore) other are more expensive (computers, electronics, tv's).

So, do your homework before you go and compare those specific items. I must say if we were asked for $5k we would have walked. But since then we have saved a lot by using the DB as a shopping option. We just purchased bedroom furniture for our daughter there and saved about $800 of bed, dresser, high boy and mirror.

Good luck.
