What happened

As though the holidays came early, Sam’s Club has rolled out its best offer of the year on its Plus membership. Rather than the regular price of $110, Plus membership will be available for new members for $55 through Oct. 15. That’s a savings of $55.

What’s more, Plus members who are approved for a Sam’s Club credit card during the membership drive and make $30 in Sam’s Club purchases within 30 days of card approval will receive a $50 statement credit. Approved Club members will receive a $30 statement credit for making $30 in purchases within 30 days of card approval.

So what

In addition to everyday deals, Sam’s Club Plus members have access to a host of sweet perks. Here’s a sample of some of the benefits Plus members enjoy:

And we’re offering an incredible value with our October membership promotion by giving shoppers access to our Plus membership at its lowest price of the year just in time for the holiday shopping season.”

Now what

If you’ve been on the fence and can’t decide if you’re ready for a Plus membership, you can snag a Club membership for only $15. That’s $35 off the regular Club membership price, a savings of nearly 60%.
