Sam's Club Introduced 3 New Member Benefits That Make It So Much Easier to Shop

If you’re an avid Sam’s Club shopper, there’s some good news about your membership. As of August 19, the membership-only warehouse known for selling everyday items in bulk unveiled brand new membership benefits for its Club members and Plus members at no additional cost.

To help streamline the shopping experience for its members, Sam's Club memberships now include added perks on curbside pickup, same-day delivery, and shipping. Here’s everything you need to know about the new membership changes.

What Are Sam’s Club’s New Membership Benefits?

Free Curbside Pickup

Club members can now enjoy free curbside pickup on eligible items that total $50 or more. However, if the $50 minimum is not reached, the current $4 fee will be applied to each eligible order.

Free Delivery for Plus Members

Plus members no longer need to worry about the $8 fee on eligible “basket orders” over $50. Now, this membership includes free delivery from your local Sam’s Club on qualifying orders of $50 and up. This can even include same-day service if ordered by 1 p.m. local time. Any orders that do not reach the $50 minimum can be subjected to the current $8 fee.

Currently, Sam’s Club offers same-day delivery to most areas within a 15-mile radius of a warehouse store with hopes to expand even wider soon.

Free Shipping for Plus Members

Plus members can also get free shipping on qualifying orders of $50 or more. Other qualifying orders less than $50 will have a flat rate fee of $8.

Plus members already get many other perks and rewards in their membership, including earning 2% Sam’s Cash on qualifying purchases made in the store and 10 free generic prescriptions. Members can also enjoy early shopping at select locations throughout the week (except Sunday) starting at 8 a.m.
