For those who have never shopped at Sam’s Club, now is a good time to start (read on for a special deal!) Part of Walmart, Sam’s Club is a membership warehouse club. Not only do you save on everyday items, but warehouse stores like Sam’s Club offer some of the lowest prices on gasoline. We just came across a Groupon deal for a Sam’s Club membership! For a limited time: Pay $25 for a year’s membership, a savings of 50%!
For families or those with the space to buy in large quantity, a warehouse store membership makes sense — dollars and cents — when you want to stock up on necessities so as to make fewer shopping trips.
And, if you are already a Sam’s Club member, consider giving a membership as a gift to a friend or relative.
This current deal is set to expire on February 28, 2025.

Why Join Sam’s Club?
Instead of stocking every item in every available brand, the warehouse model picks and chooses the products that consumers need most in large quantities and then passes the savings along to members.
The brands they do carry are always very good quality, including the Members Mark store brand. You’ll also find more well-known brands such as Clorox, BirdsEye, Coca Cola, Tide, Fabuloso, Pampers, KitchenAid, Cuisinart, etc. They consistently have the best prices on cleaning supplies, bottled water and paper products.
Of course, not everything at Sam’s is cheaper than at grocery stores or big box stores, so you do have to comparison shop. But warehouse stores are usually so well priced that most of us are willing to have loads of it sitting around the house for a while or we shop with a buddy and split the goods.
There’s also an optical department and tire and battery center, where members can save even more. Their pharmacy also offers huge savings (though it is open to all, no membership required) — but, hey, you can pick up a prescription and then do some shopping in one trip.
Sam’s Club also provides other member benefits including special sales, bulk quantities (for example, instead of a 6-roll pack of toilet paper, you can buy a 24-roll pack) and members-only savings on gasoline. That last one is a biggie!
Sam’s Club memberships are available for $20 (plus is $60) through shop.id.me for anyone with a college degree or working in government/healthcare/military/education.
