Sam's Club $1 Per Week Membership


If you’re considering a Sam’s Club membership here is a great deal to test it out. You can get a summer membership for $1 per week for 10 weeks. In order to get this special price you must sign up before June 5th, 2011.

While I do not personally find a membership necessary, you can find the grocery store sale prices on meat, diary, and produce at Sam’s Club everyday.  They also have great deals on socks, books etc.

A quick savings tip:
Many people shop at Sam’s Club for paper products and grocery items you use regularly, but if you compare prices you will find you do not actually save money over shopping sales at grocery and drug stores.

For example:

Scott Mega Paper Towels, 6 rolls at CVS this week for $3 (50¢ ea.)
Scott Towels, 20 rolls, $32.88 ($1.64 ea)

Chinet Napkins 40-90 ct, 7¢ at Publix this week (.001 ea.)
Vanity Fair Napkins 600 ct, $8.48 (.014 ea)

Wisk Detergent 50 oz, FREE at Kroger this week
Wisk Detergent 172 oz, $13.48

Remember most coupons are good for different size packages, so even if Sam’s took a coupon (which they don’t) a $2 off coupon on a product that costs $2.99 is a much better deal than using it on a $13 product.
