Effective immediately, anyone with a Sam’s Plus membership will receive free shipping on most items sold online, including nearly every Member’s Mark item — and there’s no minimum purchase.
Plus members will continue to receive other benefits like cash rewards, early shopping hours, and pharmacy and optical discounts.
Sam’s Club is also reducing the number of membership types to two levels: Club for $45 a year and Plus for $100. The cost for additional Club memberships (formerly Sam’s Savings) has been lowered to $40.
Not a member? Sam’s Club regularly offers special sign-up deals, like a $10 gift card for new members. Get the details here.
Finally, Sam’s Club says it’s making the shopping experience “faster and easier” both in-club and online. Scan & Go and Club Pickup are already popular with members, but the retailer promised more time-saving options are coming soon.
Details are few, but the company said it’s focused on creating “the quickest and most convenient shopping experience.”
