It takes a lot for the perfect game day party. Here’s how Sam’s Club can help. [[{“value”:”

You can find good deals at Sam’s Club on all sorts of stuff, including all the things you need to celebrate the big game right. Because who says you have to blow your finances to have a blow-out party? These are just a few of the game day essentials you can pick up for a good price at Sam’s Club.

1. Member’s Mark 22″ Tabletop Griddle

This propane-powered griddle from Sam’s Club’s house brand can hold enough burgers to feed a whole party at once, but you’re hardly limited to burgers. You can cook pretty much anything on a griddle top, from steaks to tortillas to fried eggs, giving you full culinary freedom for your party spread.

If you’re more of a traditionalist and want an old-fashioned grill, Sam’s Club has you covered there, too. You can get a variety of other Member’s Mark grills, from gas to charcoal to pellet, all well-reviewed by shoppers.

Even better, all of the grills and griddles are covered by Sam’s Club’s fantastic return policy that offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee on most items.

2. Ninja Foodi 6-in-1, 8-qt. 2-Basket Air Fryer

If you’re more into chicken wings than burgers — or simply need somewhere to crispy up all those fries — an air fryer can be a great addition to the kitchen. The Ninja Foodi 6-in-1, 8-qt. 2-Basket Air Fryer can not only air fry, but also bake, roast, and even dehydrate.

This particular model isn’t for the faint of frying, however; with two giant baskets totaling eight quarts of capacity, this is a large appliance. Make sure you actually need the extra space before you drop big bucks on such a big machine. On the plus side, Sam’s Club’s price is a solid $20 cheaper than other retailers.

3. All the meats

Whether you’re looking for burgers, ribs, or chicken wings, you can find them at Sam’s Club — in large quantities and at great prices. (If you like grass-fed beef for your burgers, the Member’s Mark three-pack is the best per-pound price I’ve seen.)

However, you don’t have to choose quantity over quality here. I’ve anecdotally heard many shoppers praise the quality of Sam’s Club’s meat counter. And the website supports the in-person reviews I’ve heard, with most products rating at least 4.5 stars from online reviewers.

4. Chips, dips, and condiments

Your proteins aren’t the only parts of the party spread you can get at Sam’s Club. In fact, a big game day party is the perfect time to shop at Sam’s Club, since you’re far more likely to use up those bulk-sized bargains on chips, dips, and condiments.

If you’re shopping in the store, be sure to use Scan & Go. Not only does it save you time — you can scan items as you shop and completely skip the checkout line — but it can actually save you money, too. Sam’s Club has special Scan & Go savings that only kick in when you shop with Scan & Go in store.

5. Member’s Mark trash bags

Napkins, paper plates, wing bones, chip crumbles — throwing a party can be great fun, but once the game is over and the guests are gone, you’ve still got a job to do: clean up. The Member’s Mark brand includes all sorts of trash bags, from 13-gallon tall kitchen bags to 33-gallon Power Flex bags (for those really big party messes!).

What’s more, these bags are inexpensive, but not cheap. While they can cost as little as $0.09 per bag, these bags are durable and reliable. The least popular Member’s Mark trash bags still earn 4.5 stars (out of 5), and the most popular bags have 4.9 stars from thousands of reviewers.

Celebrate the save

While we’re all busy celebrating the big game, tons of Sam’s Club shoppers can also celebrate the great savings they scored on party supplies. Of course, Sam’s Club isn’t always the cheapest place for them, so make sure you also do a bit of comparison shopping if you’re making a big purchase.
