    Understand but both are on Woodruff road and the traffic is horrendous. At least Sam's is closer to the highway and easier to get thru with back roads.

    Well acquainted on their locations, Roper Mtn. road easy on/off to Costco. Sam's can be a PITA to get in/out. It was better when they were on Laurens rd.

    Was just tossing it out there that you can check out either one for a day for free.

    I’ve yet to find a consistently better steak source than costco. The steaks are incredible there. Really the only reason I have a membership is the meats.

    We only have a Sam's and BJ's. I do shop at Sam's but don't care for BJ's. I wish we had a Costco and I would not have to deal with Sam's Club.

    Costco blows them away on everything in my opinion.
    I’m with Brad here. We had both for a couple years. Cancelled Sam’s about 2 years ago and haven’t looked back. Now, when it come time for new boat batteries, that may be a different story!

    Costco. Meat, tires, and rental cars more than pay for my membership.

    We have both but prefer Sam's as there are more stores in the area and are not as crowded on the weekends as a Costco. Costco only has 2 stores in the area and on a Sunday afternoon it's difficult to navigate the aisle with a cart due to the crowds.

    Have both, prefer Costco without a doubt. Kirkland brands are much better than Sam's house brand. Plus the fuel....

    We have both in town. We're members at Sam's. We always get our gas there since it's usually about .10 cents cheaper per gallon. Between my truck and the boat, we make up the membership costs in a few months.

    I have been a Sams club member since 1997. My family gets 95 percent of our produce from Sam's because it is better quality then the local grocery stores. Also buy a lot of gas from them too as well as a lot of other items we use on a regular basis.

    Does Sam's carry ethanol free gas and if so do all of them?

    I bought a sams last year just to get the Duracell agm batteries. We liked it enough to renew it this year. Bad thing about either place is you can spend a lot of money with everything being in bulk. We kept it because we were having a baby. It has saved us a ton in formula alone.

    It is very hard to beat Costco. Very high quality products. Buy the executive membership and the 2% rewards will more than pay your membership fees annually.

    If there was a Costco near by, I'm sure I'd have a membership, but there isn't one convenient enough, so Sam's it is.

    Better go to SAMs if you want the good cheese.

    Sams club member here and without a doubt it’s worth it. I used to work for them as a manager for a bit. Cost savings alone more than makes up for membership
