As the world has been figuring out the new retail landscape, we’ve been investigating warehouse stores like Costco and Sam’s Club as your electronics alternative. Well, as it so happens, Sam’s Club is in the middle of Member’s Mark Month. Now through June 16, when you sign up for a Sam’s Club Membership you can get a special rate. A Sam’s Club member at the ‘Club’ tier now costs only $20 instead of the usual $50, a savings of $30, and a Sam’s Club Plus membership costs $60 instead of the usual $110, saving you $50. Of course, it needs to be a new Sam’s Club membership or (at the very least) you couldn’t be have not been one for 6 months to qualify for the offer.
If you’re intrigued, be sure to tap the button below and sign up. Alternatively, keep reading to see which membership is best for you, how the memberships can pay for themselves, and what you should buy at Sam’s Club to make it all worth your while.
Why you should get a Sam’s Club membership
While there are plenty of perks to a Sam’s Club membership, if we’re talking discounts, lets also talk money. What is a warehouse membership, anyhow? To reiterate on a point that we’ve stated over and over again, you pay for a membership and gain discounts and services. In theory, and hopefully in practice, this means that the membership could pay for itself. This membership deal makes it easier to tip the balance in your favor. Consider it your opportunity to weather the trade war — whether you continue with the membership afterwards is up to you, after all.
So, here’s the value: We did a lengthy look at the perks and discounts Sam’s Club (and Costco) can give you. As before, the Plus tier membership gives you the most benefits, and we zeroed in on just three (of many) to examine what you’ll get. Of these, the most critical is the 2% back you get on purchases. That’s $2 back to you per $100 spent, or $3,000 for the full $60 your membership costs. If you think you spend anywhere close to $3,000 per year on electronics and other Sam’s Club buys, then you can benefit from this membership. Remember, this isn’t the only perk you’ll get (again, check out our guides for extended coverage) so there will be plenty of chances to turn the whole affair into a savings machine for you and your family. If you’re having trouble thinking about what you may buy, check out our warehouse store electronics shopping guide for ideas on what you should buy (and what you should skip entirely) at these stores.
Right now you can get a Sam’s Club ‘Club’ membership or ‘Plus’ membership for just $20 and $60, respectively. That’s a savings of $30 or $50 off of the usual prices of $50 and $110, but those savings are only yours now through June 16, so be sure to sign up and start saving now.
