Who doesn’t want convenient checkout and extra discounts all in one? See how you can get both on your next Sam’s Club trip. [[{“value”:”

Although I’m definitely a Costco fan, I’m actually more likely to shop at Sam’s Club. And one of the reasons why is the in-store experience. Specifically, I love the convenience of Shop & Go. After a new change, I also love its potential to help my budget.

If you haven’t used it yet (you really should), Scan & Go is a feature of the Sam’s Club app that lets me scan items as I shop, then checkout completely in the app. I haven’t had to wait in a checkout line at Sam’s Club in ages.

And it isn’t just time I’m saving — I can save money, too. The new Scan & Go Offers mean I earn extra savings on eligible items just by using Scan & Go when I shop in-store. While the current number of eligible items isn’t huge, the potential for savings is. Here’s what I mean.

Save an average of 17% on eligible items

If you look at the currently eligible items (offers used in this article end April 7, 2024), Scan & Go savings range from $1 up to $5 depending on the item.

Overall, Scan & Go savings offer an average of 17% off the full price. That’s a very respectable discount for simply using a more convenient checkout method.

The lowest discount was 10%, which is still pretty darn good considering that Sam’s Club’s regular prices are already lower than most other retailers. That makes the highest discounts — they go up to 26% — downright remarkable!

Up to $69.80 in total potential savings

If you prefer dollars and cents, the average discount is $2.81 (the average item’s regular price was $17.35). At the low end was a discount for $1 off, and the highest discount was for $5 off.

Unfortunately, the discounts aren’t limitless. Each product has its own limit on how many items you can buy with the discount. For instance, the Lysol deal can only be used once. However, the current Scan & Go offer on Energizer AAA batteries can be used up to five times.

If you maximize each offer on every item, you’d wind up with 29 products and you’ll have saved a total of $69.80. (You’ll also have a whole lot of batteries and cleaning supplies.)

Maximizing your return at Sam’s Club

In case you’re wondering, yes, your Scan & Go purchases still qualify for the extra Sam’s Cash you can earn on in-store shopping as a Plus member. You can also redeem it on purchases at the payment screen.

You can still earn your credit card rewards, too. Just add your favorite rewards card to your Sam’s Club app and select it as your payment when you check out.

If you’re already saving money at Sam’s Club and haven’t tried Scan & Go yet, it may be time to give it a try. Your wallet may thank you!
