Sam’s Club versus Costco: Which camp are you a member of? Why choose?
As two of the most popular wholesale retail chains in the U.S., it’s no wonder the feud runs deep and long between die-hard Costco and Sam’s Club shoppers. Which retailer has better prices and deals? Which retailer has better products? While both stores have their strengths and weaknesses, we still can’t help but rave about a certain handful of Sam’s Club products that we bet money Costco shoppers will love, too.
Ahead, we’ve handpicked everything from pantry staples to frozen favorites found at Sam’s Club that Costco shoppers should absolutely give a try.
-
Member’s Mark Chocolate Chunk Cookies

-
Member’s Mark Seasoned Rotisserie Chicken

-
Member’s Mark peanut butter-filled pretzels

-
Member’s Mark real crumbled bacon

-
Member’s Mark almond butter
