Sam’s Club Membership Deals

Both Groupon and Living Social are offering Sam’s Club membership deals.  The deals are the same on both sites, so it’s up to you which site you purchase from.  Below I’ll pass along info which may sway your decision.

First, though, the deals.

These deals are for a one-year Sam’s Club Savings Membership.

• $30 for a one-year Savings Membership (regularly priced at $45)
• Complimentary membership card for spouse or other household member
• $10 Sam’s Club e-gift card good online or in-store. Allow 5-7 days for delivery of e-gift card.

Or

• $45 for a one-year Savings Membership
• Complimentary membership card for spouse or other household member
• $20 Sam’s Club e-gift card valid online or in-store. Allow 5-7 days for delivery of e-gift card.
• $140 in Instant Savings offers loaded directly to membership card within 24 hours of activating membership. This typically is Member’s Mark (Sam’s Club brand) food and other items, not brand name goods.

These deals are good on new memberships only.  You cannot renew a current membership with these deals.

New memberships are defined as: a membership not active less than 6 months before 10/1/17.

If you have an expiring membership, but your spouse/household member has not had a membership in the last 6 months, he/she can grab this deal and give you the complimentary membership card.

And next year, you can – likely – do the same to keep getting discounted memberships.

Why Get a Sam’s Club Membership

If you don’t have a large family where buying 3 pound tubs of mayo and 10 pounds of chicken at a time is normal, you may not think a Sam’s Club membership is worth it.

And it may not be.

But, for my wife and me, I’ve found that you can find specific deals that will make the annual membership fee – even without an offer like this – worth paying.

Razor blades were a big one where we could get enough savings over a year to offset the membership fee.

It wasn’t until last year, though, that I found how valuable Sam’s Club Pharmacy pricing is.

If you don’t have insurance that covers your prescription drugs, you can find a number of prescriptions at incredibly low prices.  As low as $4 for a month’s supply.  And for a select number of prescriptions, there is no cost at all.

You do have to have a Sam’s Plus Membership to take advantage of the prescription pricing.  A Plus Membership costs $100 per year.

But, you can upgrade your Sam’s Club Savings Membership right at the pharmacy checkout the first time you purchase your prescription(s).  Meaning, the difference in price – $55 – will be tacked on to the prescription price.

Think about it, though, with this deal, you’re not actually paying the full $45 for the Savings Membership…and you’re getting a $10 Sam’s Club e-gift card to boot.

If you think you might be able to save on your prescriptions with a Sam’s Club membership, read my piece, “Sam’s Club Pharmacies Offer Great Savings on Prescription Drugs,” to get more info and see the pricing document first.

Then, if you can benefit, jump on this Groupon or Living Social membership deals to make your savings even greater!
