If you've been waiting for a deal to join Sam's Club, this may be it:


Linky: https://www3.samsclub.com/best-deals...big-game-offer

Pay $45 for a 1-year membership

Get:
* $25 Gift Card (via email)
* Free 16" Take 'n Bake Pizza (Pepperoni or Cheese)
* Daily Chef Chocolate Chunk Cookies (18-ct.)
* Coupons for a bunch of shit you may or may not need

The catch:
* You have to NOT be a current member.
* If you are a past member, at least six months has to have elapsed since your membership expired

Deal expires Super Bowl weekend. There's a countdown timer on the sign-up page, right now it's on 17 days 10 hours.

This beats the "$20 Back and a Free Chicken" deal that got me in September.

Mods - I think I put this in the wrong forum. Could you move to "Deals" please? Thanks!

Thanks for sharing! Were a Costco family but there isnt one near us, but there is a sams! Gonna sign up next week after I get paid!

Trevor

Pretty much works out to a free membership. We're a lifetime Costco family, but will give this a whirl.

Might be interested in the deal.
But no Sam's Club in Oregon(no sales tax).
Not sure why Sam's never built any stores in Oregon.
I'm in Auburn now,but spend lots of time up in Oregon.

Weird; I've tried multiple times with multiple emails to sign up for this offer and never receive anything.

Deftones

check your spam folder. i signed up through a yahoo account and it went to my spam folder.

Same here

I had a business membership that was getting ready to expire, and this ended up being a cheaper option without losing too many of the benefits. I just signed up using a different email account that was tied to our other membership.

DJariya

Just applied for this.

So how is the pizza and cookies supposed to be redeemed? Are they going to send an e-mail about that?

Deftones

I think they give you coupons when you go in and get your card.

DJariya

I went in today and picked up my card. No coupons for the free cookies and pizza. The lady at the Membership counter claims that I need to wait 2-3 days before I can redeem them with my membership card.

Has anyone else tried redeeming the cookies and pizza yet?

garymickd

The free cookies and pizza are loaded onto your card when you get the card. The credits showed up for me at checkout.

Dan

So for those of you who are existing members... you just completed a new application? It didn't get flagged due the same name or address or anything?

mattysemo247

Correct, and I think you only have 30 days to use it

Nope. Mine might be slightly different case though since I went from a business membership to a regular one. If you have a spouse, you could always put them as the primary.

Trevor

Thanks. Nothing in spam, but finally got an invite on the 4th attempt.

Joined today. Hopefully the cookies and pizza work on Sunday, that's my Super Bowl meal plan.

They don't carry movies anymore apparently.

DJariya

Thanks for the info about the cookies and pizza. I'll probably drop by there again in the next few days to pick them up.

Just a warning, but the pizza ovens in these places can get slammed hard during "party" holidays.

A few years ago we went to Costco to get pizzas on New Years Eve, and they had a two hour waitlist. And even then, they stopped selling pizzas at around four or five because they either ran out of supplies, or the waiting time got backed up to closing time. We ended up ordering pizzas, then ran some errands (liquor store runs, picked up some other food items, etc.) for ninety minutes, then went back to Costo and chilled out on the couches until the pizzas were done.

Trevor

^ Thanks Josh! I have a back-up plan of nachos and ice cream.

Deftones

these are take and bake pizzas, not the ones already cooked from the deli service counter thing.

when i signed up, the guy told me they wouldn't load the coupons to my account for 72 hours. i was kind of bummed because i wanted the pizza for last night and cookies for tomorrow. oh well, i can use them in the next few weeks.
