Sam's Club Review Summary

Most anyone who has shopped at Wal- Mart is fully aware of the company’s sister operation Sam’s Club, a shopping club with an online presence as well as physical location stores. Reviewers of Sam’s Club like the shopping club concept and they like the fact that Sam’s Club is budget friendly and offers many great bargains. Sam’s Club is “A Great Place to Save Money” in the words of one reviewer, but others feel that Sam’s Club has a few flaws, most notably the slow service, unreliable search function at Samsclub.com, and the fact that you have to pay a fee to join. It makes Sam’s Club a good, but not necessarily great Shopping Web Service

I have been a member of Sam's Club for almost 8 years now and I love going there to browse and do my monthly meat shopping. Bulk packaging is the name of the game here and it can save you a lot of money. — — Electronics — — All sizes of HDTV televisions are on… read full review »

I was excited about the concept of having my shopping ready for my husband to pick up on his way home from work (it takes forever to explain every product detail and location); however, although the shopping was easy online, there are several kinks Sam's Club needs to work out before I would want… read full review »

Sam's Club — What a wonderful place! My Sam's Club is very conveniently located, has friendly people and good prices. —  My daughter and myself go almost every Wednesday before church to eat dinner. They have the greatest pizza and icecream. The four berry sundae is sooooo good. Sometimes we get a whole pizza baked to go. You can also buy them already made but not baked so that you can bake them at home when you are ready. — The pies and cakes they make there are to die for! — There is always plenty of everything. I've never went after something to find that they… read full review »

If you're looking for the perfect one stop store to purchase food, TV's, books, jewelry & clothes, then Sam's Club is the place for you.  Sam's Club has just about everything you need, and all in one location.  Make sure you have plenty room for storage before you leave your home, because everything is sold in bulk and requires a lot of space.  Sam's Club is excellent for once-a-month shopping, picnics, and parties for every… read full review »

We joined Sam's Club when our second child was born.  Prior to that, it seemed silly to spend money for the right to spend more money.  But with two kids of our own--plus I do child care and therefore feed and diaper several more kids--the savings are well worth the cost of membership.  Since I'm a child care provider and therefore a small business owner, we save $5 a year on the cost of membership ($35 a year instead of $40) and we can also shop earlier on most days, during Gold Key Hours.  So especially if you're a child care provider, I highly recommend it. — You… read full review »

Sams  Club is a convenient location to shop for items you may use all the time. I try to limit my purchases there to what I really need as the items will quickly add up to more than I am willing to spend. The bakery there is wonderful. You can order a cake in advance or pick up premade goods. In each part of the store, there are always product displays and  free samples being given away. The one  thing that I do not like about sam's  is that they do not accept coupons the way that bj's does. Also I feel like they should have a better variety to choose from. I like to buy… read full review »

On a recent trip to my local Sams Club I noticed that a specific cellphone was on display in the Kiosk. — I inquired about the price for a contract extension on my current AT&T family plan just to upgrade my phone only. To my surprise the price was exceptional & unlike @ the AT&T store there were no strings attached. — The cost to upgrade included the Sams sale price of the phone, local sales tax, and of course AT&T's activation fee. The only draw back was the stock availabilty which took four weeks for them to get… read full review »

Sam's is a good place to shop for certain items. You need to be wiling to stock up and spend more to save money over time. Not a good place for a quick visit of any type. You can buy better quality items sometimes for the same or less money that that brand would usually sell for. Small business owners and large families can realize savings here. Some nice gift items too. Good place for folks that smoke to buy their expensive items too. Not a place to shop where you need helpful or knowledgeable sales folks.... —… read full review »

I just LOVE sams club! I find the prices are cheaper then most places and when I buy in a large quantity, I don't find myself having to go to the grocery store every week spending loads of money on food. They have a large variety of stuff from food to housewares. I'm always looking for a good bargain and at sams club I seem to find bunches of them. … read full review »
