Sam’s Club Advantage Plus Membership saves us money! *Giveaway Closed*

September 26, 2009 By Tanya 235 Comments

Sams-Club-BadgeI will be honest when I tell you that I have never been in to coupon clipping or scoping for savings, that is – until I became a stay at home mother last year. We would just go to the store, whatever store was nearby regardless of the price, and get what we needed, or go without.

Well, guess what? I love my coupons and I will even brag about my coupon cutting, coupon organization and hey – hubby think’s it’s pretty cool that I am keen in to saving more. What we can save, we put aside in a savings ‘can’ that I have for traveling to New York next year. Savings = second honemoon. Hey, that’s nice!

I was more than thrilled to be one of 15 FABULOUS bloggers to work with Sam’s Club in a new program called “Sharing the Savings”. The other awesome savers in my group are:

Thank you to Cat @ 3Kids and Us for creating the group image for us to use!

Sam’s Club has rolled out a new program that will allow their members to take part in a new paperless coupon system that they are implementing. I am very excited to be a part of this program!

Sams-Club-eValue

It’s called eValues. It will offer additional discounts and offers, on top of their everyday savings, for Sam’s Club Plus Members only. Today, we went to Sam’s for the second time in a week. I know – bad me. :oops: When you see savings, you have to take those savings when you are able to! Just today, when I went in to Sam’s, I scanned my Sam’s Club Plus Member card and 4 pages of SAVINGS printed out – just for me! Well, having screaming kids in the house, I desperately needed some Advil, and today, I saved $3.00 on a large count of Advil. Bring on the screaming. Go ahead!

scan0001

Not only will you get electronic discounts right off the bat, you won’t have to worry with clipping and forgetting your coupons on the car. This, I am very guilty of doing. With my Sam’s Club Plus Membership, I can save money on the things that I already purchase!

I wanted to take you through our entire shopping experience. Enjoy!

Kids are more than ready! They were so excited to see the double shopping cart. LOL!

First stop? Who can deny Sam’s pretzels and awesome snack area?

Not far from Pretzel’land, we walked by and Tucker saw these:

Here are some savings that I found right away. We go through a lot of cheese, butter and I made bread, almost daily! Who can pass up a 25 pound bag of bread floud for right around $7? Now that we have a larger fridge & freezer, we can fit things like snacks, steaks, cheese and more!

The clothing selection – oh, holy moly! Fabulous!!

If you need underwear, Sam’s is the place to go. Kim really loves their under garments :lol:

 

Do you think I am happy to save? You bet!

There was just one thing that I was sad not to see. Oscar Mayer Weiners. Tucker was too. :lol:

 

Guess what? I have another Sam’s Club Plus Membership to give away! If you missed the giveaway last month, it’s ok! I have more to give away!

    I clip coupons from newspapers and print them from the internet. I also go to stores like Sam’s Club. I was a Sam’s Club shopper for several years then decided to try Costco. I prefer Sam’s Club so I’m definitely planning to buy a Sam’s Club membership at the end of the year so winning this contest would save me a hundred dollars!

    We live in a very rural area and it takes us a long time to get to a good store. So, we do one big shopping trip once a month and the bulk of it is at Sam’s. I make most everything from scratch and I cook in bulk, so we have ready-made, healthy meals on hand on those days when it’s just been too hectic to cook. That saves us big money over eating out or getting fast food.

    A Sam’s Club Advantage Plus card would help us save even more when we do our “big” shopping because it would offer discounts not otherwise available to us.

    We save by buying in bulk during sales and filling the freezer and pantry, then we only need to buy a few essentials every so often to make meals. A Sam’s Club membership would help a LOT with our restocking trips!

    I save money by constantly checking the mail, for ads, coupons, and good deals. I mean the other day we recieved a 50 dollar Freds gift card just by getting a prescription filled in their pharmacy!
    Money is so tight around here lately, that a Sams club membership would really help us out.

    To save money I try to avoid impulsive shopping. If I an item that I like, I tell myself to go back to the store the next day. Most of the time, I am not interested anymore the next day.

    I shop at Sam’s club all the time with a reg. membership. They don’t take coupons (I usually try to use coupons when shopping). The advantage membership allows for some use of coupons, so I’d be able to save money.

    My boyfriend and I are a young couple struggling to make ends meet. I have extensive medicals bills that we are trying to pay off as well as saving up for a move across the state so I can go back to college full-time. We are currently living off of mostly Mac and Cheese and Ramen Noodles. It would be a huge blessing to have a Sam’s Club Membership so we could afford to buy foods in bulk, freeze it and make healthier more affordable meals!

    One way of saving money is by buying at places like Sam’s Club and TJ Maxx. Another is the small things – e.g. taking junk mail, turning it inside out, and using it for lists, so as not to have to buy more paper!

    Living on a budget isn’t always easy, but I’ve made it a challenge to find ways to save money beyond coupons and rebates — some of the tips I’ve learned are: not to be afraid of thrift stores and consignment stores (on the contrary, there are some great hidden treasures there and at garage/estate sales), to shop for off-season/clearance items everywhere (even grocery stores like Kroger have clearance bins!), and to save my really big purchases for tax holidays. I’d also love to be able to shop at Sam’s Club so I can stock up on items I can easily store and save, such as soap, vitamins, razor blades, canned goods, cleaning supplies, etc. That would be a huge help to our household budget for sure – thanks!

    Kathleen says:
    October 10, 2009 at 11:04 AM

    I clip coupons – I started a few months ago – and pair them with sales. The best deals are when something is buy one, get one free, and you have two $ off 1 coupons – then you are already getting one free, so your money gets saved off the other item. It’s great!

    I always shop on clearance…everywhere! …especially Target.. they have the best clearance stuff.. 75% off! I’ve always wanted a Sam’s Club membership but I’m such a penny pincher that I don’t want to pay for the membership fee. If I won it I’m sure I’d spend a lot of money there…. they would make a ton more money if they didn’t charge a membership fee

    I save money by buying some things in bulk and repackaging them in smaller containers, for instance cheese. If you left it all in one big pack, family members seem encouraged to waste it. Portion it out in several smaller packs and it is easier to keep fresh and lasts longer.

I’d love to stock up on lunchbox snacks and lunch meat. Not to mentions TONS of peanut butter and jelly! I bet I could save tons buying in bulk. thanks!

    Each week I match up the sales with coupons. I stockpile items that will keep (canned foods, TP, etc.) and buy fresh fruits and veggies anytime I can. I also save money by having a small garden with peppers, tomatoes, lettuce, swiss chard and a few other veggies. Having a Sam’s Club Card would allow me to stock up on items that will keep for some time (like the big bag of flour you bought!). I would also be able to take my parents to Sam’s club. They live out in the boonies and going to Sam’s would allow them to get products that they could stock up on as well. I would love to win this, thanks!!!

    I save money buy using coupons amd shopping based on sales. I would definitely use a Sam’s Club Advantage Plus Membership to help save money. 1st of all, just winning this would save me money. 2nd of all, I would use my membership to buy meat, because meat at Sam’s club is alot cheaper because it is sold in higher quantity packets with lower price. I like this because I save money and stock up at the same time, so I don’t have to be running back and forth to the store all the time for dinner meat which saves me gas and time.

    I have 6 kids, three still at home. They are in sports and “eat us out of house and home” as they say. It is hard to keep up with the “normal” clean up with kids AND a dog, so we go through laundry, self care, and cleaning products SO fast too. I am always looking for the best deals as I am unable to work due to chronic health issues . My husband did have a Sam’s Club membership many years ago, but that work benefit was cut.
    I LOVE the decorated cakes Sam’s has. I am not able to make the ones I used to for my kids. These are so yummy and reasonably priced for any occasion. We would LOVE to have a Sam’s card!!!

    I save money for our family by shopping sales and using coupons as much as I can. Also buying our favorites and stocking up when there is a great sale going on. The Sams Club membership would really help our family save more since I’ve been in there once and couldn’t believe how many products we use are there. You can even find holiday decor! It’s really a great place to consolidate shopping trips.

A Sam’s membership would help me out so much with getting pantry & cleaning supplies & helping out my sons with their babies needs! I used to shop Sam’s for years with the place I worked. I’ve missed it so much. Their meat is second to none!

    We have a regular Sam’s membership and it saves us about 100 dollars every time we buy a set of tires. We also save on food items we use a lot of like ranch dressing, less then 6 dollars for a gallon.

    We save money by planning our trips to the grocery store (not buying on impluse), which also means clipping coupons and shopping where they double up manufacturer’s coupons.
    A Sam’s membership would really help us out because we’re expecting our first baby in December! Saving more would be great!

    I have 5 kids so I can really justify buying in bulk. Three are teens and they eat me out of house and home. I buy bulk and break whatever it is down in sections for freezing, storing or sharing with a friend. I really do save a lot of money that way. I would love to shop Sam’s Club for my bulk shopping ventures!

    I save money by clipping coupons, using electronic coupons, stocking up on sales, and limiting my shopping trips. I could save money at Sam’s by buying in bulk and filling up my pantry and freezer. Thanks for the chance!

    I totally hear ya on the “I used to not have to watch my grocery spending but now I do” story. My husband is back in school and so my freelancing is supporting us for the next few months until he finishes! I’ve started watching sales at grocery stores, downloading coupons and buying in bulk whenever possible. But that’s where a Sam’s membership (for free!) would really come in handy for us! Here’s hoping :) Thanks!

    I save by stock shopping. I only shop items when they are at a knock-out price and that I have coupons for that are also doubled (sometimes tripled). I can get a lot of groceries for free or next to nothing (I also buy eight Sunday newspapers just for the coupon books). When I shop in Sam’s Club, I only purchase the items we need or can use that I can’t possibly get any cheaper (most of the time) the way I normally shop–milk, eggs, butter, whipped cream, sharp cheddar cheese at $2.00/lb., etc. I also walk up and down aisles scanning the last two digits of the posted prices checking for sale and clearance items.

    We don’t buy items we don’t need. I save all my change and at the end of the year we usually have enough saved to buy something like a new electronic. I shop in bulk when I can, but I’m not a member of Sam’s Club and there are very few bulk stores around here. I buy meat when it is marked down and freeze it for later. I bought a vacuum sealer for stuff like that so it lasts much longer.

    the way i save money is to buy in bulk,use coupons,and add up the value of the item(how much the item is per oz,per diper,per pop-cikle,ect)and i look for sales.
    this premium membership would help me out because i really need to spend as little as i can with having a tight buget and having to pay my son’s tuition i really dont have the extra money.so this would catch me up on my low personal items that i like to keep extras of.thanks,shannon

    A Sam’s Club Advantage Plus Membership would be a great help for my family because I’ve got 6 mouths to feed and buying in bulk would save us sooo much money! Thank you for the contest! Happy Fall!

    we use coupons alot. There are no stores that double so we do look for the best deal. I have a question on the values it says 15 left to use- is that for the month,the year? I am interested in that as they give you a prinout- how many are you aloowed to buy if there are xx amount of things listed? You can email me if you want, was curious as to how that worked.

    I have a Sams Club membership (about to expire) and purchase a wide range of products from the club. Ironically there are times that certain items are priced cheaper in Walmart where you can use coupons. The membership is still a good value; it would be a sad world if we only shopped for everything in one store.
    I save money by considering whats on special at the various stores, clipping coupons and still ending up with meals that are healthy and cater to the families tastes.

    We shop at Sam’s about once every 6 weeks or so. There are several items they carry that we just can’t get anywhere else – Dove ice cream bars, Jimmy Dean sausage patties, Black Label bacon in a 3-pound package, a large resealable package of Krusteaz pancake mix, etc. An additional way we save money is with the SplashShopper software on a Palm Z22 device, which lets us track prices at various stores so we can tell if the price at a particular store is a better deal or not.
