No, there is not.

The only part of the statute that mentions anything akin to a warning is the section that deals with establishing what a "reasonable belief" is. As I just responded to someone else regarding this, I'll just copy pasta:
(2)A reasonable belief exists when the actor, to protect himself or a third person, was in his own dwelling at the time of the offense or was privileged to be thereon and the encounter between the actor and intruder was sudden and unexpected, compelling the actor to act instantly and:
(a)The actor reasonably believed that the intruder would inflict personal injury upon the actor or others in the dwelling; OR
b)The actor demanded that the intruder disarm, surrender or withdraw, and the intruder refused to do so.
The emphasis on OR is mine, because you don't need both conditions to be fulfilled to have a reasonable belief - it's one or the other. If someone breaks into your home, and you tell them to leave, and they refuse, then that provides the reasonable belief that they intend to cause serious injury or death to you or others.

That section denotes what is required for "reasonable belief" for use of deadly force, not that you are required to give a warning.

There is no statutory requirement in NJ to warn an intruder or give them means of escape.

The use of deadly force in NJ requires reasonable belief and an imminent need that such force is necessary to prevent death or serious bodily injury to yourself or others; outside the home you have a duty to retreat if you can safely do so, but inside the home there is no such duty. There is NO requirement to give warning to an intruder - if they are in your home or attempting to enter, "a person may stand in the threshold of their home and prevent an assailant from entering by any means. A home owner my use force – including deadly force – upon an intruder if the home owner believes that force is immediately necessary to protect themselves or others in the home".
This is direct from the statute and the NJ Attorney General's Use of Force Policy

Like most brick & mortar stores, they just cannot compete with online sales. BB&B doesn't offer anything that you can't get on Amazon or other online retailers, and on top of that they also have a pretty high mark-up on their offerings.
