warehouse club
Membership discount store
A warehouse club is a retail store requiring paid membership, offering goods in bulk at discounted prices.
The stores are typically large, no-frills buildings with products displayed on pallets and industrial shelving: We buy paper towels at the warehouse club because it's cheaper per roll.
Costco and Sam's Club are the major American examples.
