Sam’s has better brisket than Costco. Members Mark frozen fruit and vegetables are also far superior to Kirkland. Costco has better electronics quality and selection. Costco hot dog is better than Sam’s. The rotisseries are about the same. Costco has more variety of premade meals. Protein powder and supplements give the nod to Costco. All that said I go to Sam’s more than Costco

We live ours and actually prefer Sam’s to Costco. We buy meat in bulk and then repackage. We have a food saver, so that makes it easy.

We also do delivery from Sam’s. It’s free with orders over a certain amount. I forget the amount, but we always hit it. Delivery helps with the impulse buying, too.

Gas is always .20 cheaper, and sometimes as much as .40 less than other gas stations, so getting gas there pays the for membership without even considering any other savings.


The membership price is worth it just for gas alone. This morning Sam’s was 35 cents a gallon cheaper than the gas station by my house.

Correct and if you have the "plus" membership you can shop before they officially open and there are never lines. $5 rotisserie chicken is tough to beat.


Them damn chickens are the size of a hen or small turkey.

It's okay. Some membership levels get into the store earlier and that's worth it. Gas is sometimes a bit cheaper.

Suggestion: Try pickup and shipping. Sam's Club on a Saturday is almost as bad as Costco.

Sams does not sell Top Tier gasoline though. Costco does.

Yet another reason Costco is better.

I save a lot on just buying coffee, juice, coke, kid's snacks, chicken, and gas alone.

Also buy a lot of stuff there for my business as well.
