This past Sunday I become a new member of Sam's Club and I'm loving it so far.
As readers are well aware of, I became a member due to the $20 off $20 American Express Sam's Club deal.
I bought a Groupon for $45 which is no longer available. The Groupon came with a $20 Sam's Club gift card as well.
I got 6% cashback from Ebates, which has already tracked at $2.70. So I really only spent $42.30, but it gets better!
The groupon also came with food vouchers for Rotisserie chicken, 8 cupcakes and salsa. Valued at $22.98.
I happen to only eat Kosher. The food vouchers are for items that are not kosher. I asked the sales associate if I could substitute the food vouchers for food that is kosher and I can eat.
She did me one better, she substituted the food for a Sam's Club gift card for the value of the food and gave me an extra $22 gift card. Whoa, that's great customer service!
Final Tally
I paid $42.30 and I received:
1 year of Sam's Club membership and $42 of Sam's Club Gift Cards.
Not too shabby!
I think it goes without saying that this may not happen to you at your local store, but if you only eat kosher, are a vegetarian, have celiac, etc. It can't hurt to ask for a gift card instead
