I save 40 bucks a year alone just on hair conditioner, not to mention baby wipes, rice, kraft mac n cheese and Tide detergent (Oh Tide, how I love TIDE!)<BR/><BR/>We have two large freezer bags for our Sam's purchases. Huge bags of fresh frozen veggies, chicken breasts, meat...oh yes.The Absent Minded Housewifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14367710044518218570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-79928376808625917542008-01-25T23:25:00.000-06:002008-01-25T23:25:00.000-06:00Donna: We have Costco, but last time I checked, t...Donna: We have Costco, but last time I checked, the store was almost identical to Sam's but the membership was higher. :( <BR/><BR/>Ajooja: I'm not sure we'd have a membership if the store wasn't just a few miles away. I think it's a good idea to shop with someone else if you don't think you'll get your money's worth with your own card.<BR/><BR/>Nobody: That's a pretty creative way to use a membership. The one thing I don't like is that they automatically charge renewal fees each year unless you cancel the card before your renewal date. So far we've always renewed, but I'd prefer that was my decision and not something happening automatically.<BR/><BR/>Tug: I guess I'm a belonger this time, but I don't think I use the card the way a lot of people do.Annie Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07123644833186800503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-39831900465638029102008-01-25T22:25:00.000-06:002008-01-25T22:25:00.000-06:00I LOVED Sam's Club & Costco in Vegas, & my work pr...I LOVED Sam's Club & Costco in Vegas, & my work provided free memberships.

Now that you can renew when you check out, it makes it real easy. A couple years ago I needed a new UPS, it was about $30 cheaper at Sams, so that was close enough to breaking even that I renewed the membership. I made up the rest in savings on big boxes of Johnsonville Bratwurst. After it expired again I waited until I needed new tires. I saved over $100 on the set at Sam's, so the membership was worth it.<BR/><BR/>I used to get a membership through work for $7/year. That was awesome.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02166751077000397181noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5511897216767402899.post-38922689384346981432008-01-25T13:57:00.000-06:002008-01-25T13:57:00.000-06:00I we let all our memberships lapse.
