Spoke with Sam's Club customer service about 2 weeks ago. Told your membership must be expired for 6 months before considered a "new" member sign up.

However, if someone else signs up as a new member then you can be their complimentary member no matter how long ago your membership expired.

I have both Costco and Sam's. I always get this Sam's deal. It always comes out free with deals like these. After going to Sam's and Costco's for 10+ years I have found some items at Sam's that I can't find at Costco. If I could only choose 1 membership it would probably be Costco but I really like Sam's too. I love the scan and go at Sam's. It really beats out having to wait in checkout to pay. Also the hotdogs are way better at Sam's lol.

Do you need a more compelling reason than free?

Considered switching to Costco, so I decided to put their app on my phone and shop around. But that Costco app is GARBAGE. Read the reviews on the app where folks couldn't shop, it would lose their times in mid checkout, etc., but the real deal killer for me was no way to shop and pay from the app while in Costco?!? Damn...even Sam's and Walmart figured that shit out with Scan and Go and it has worked perfectly for me every time. Just scan with phone, toss in cart, checkout anywhere you like from your phone, and stroll out the door.

Is it worth buying this if I have no Sam's Club within 100 miles of where I live ? I'll only be able to shop online.

You guys don't have scan and go at your Costco yet ?
There's a self-checkout at a Costco near me, but no scan and go "phone checkout" thing. I usually go to Costco but I got a free membership deal for Sam's a few months ago and Sam's has Costco beat here. You scan items while you shop and pay with your phone without ever having to wait in a checkout line. The person at the exit has a scanner that then scans a barcode on your phone and scans a few random items in your cart to check you paid for them and lets you out. No paper receipt with a marker line on it.

If I am currently an active member. Can anyone else in my family open an account as a new member? Address is still going to be same. Would that be an issue?

Costco is better tbh, feels like a more premium experience. You notice the difference everywhere. After shopping at both some of the stuff from Costco was priced higher at Sam's.
Costco warehouse stores carry mostly garbage brand. Every time I go there, I find nothing to ever buy. Toilet paper and most basic necessities I can get that thru Amazon. I find that I buy more items from Sams stores, probably because not all their brands are Kirkland? The kind of free membership from Sam makes it worth it. Only reason I am continuing to pay my Costco membership is the ease of returns, auto insurance, and the credit card that gives you cashback for food and gas. No I do not even bother with the inconvenience and crowded Costco gas stations anymore. The premium experience is just a mental one. Maybe it's the Costcos I been going to???

Costco is overall better, but Sam's club does occasionally have better deals on tires and sometimes has items I like that can't be found at costco. Item-for-item, sam's club is often slightly cheaper too.

Sam's club is less crowded than costco and allows scan and go on the app, making the visit much shorter.

Costco really needs a scan and go type feature. The lines by me are ridiculous, even during the pandemic.

Whenever this SAMs deal comes.. Comparison between Costco and Sam's starts. Frankly speaking it's little crazy to talk about Costco here. You are getting a free membership here and people keep talking about how to spend $45 in a year? Really? If you don't want to go into the store. Go gas up at Sam's gas stations that itself will pay up for $45 in about 3 months.

Infact I have both cards. I Shop at both places. Scan and Go app of Sam's is the best ever App. No app can come close to it. So I never stood in a line in recent years.

Costco is better overall. Still things at Sam's that Costco just doesn't carry tho.
I would say that IMHO Costco is cleaner and has better quality merchandise but Sam's is less expensive on many items.

I'm a member of both Sam's and Costco. Costco does not have concierge service where you order online and your order is ready for pickup. My Costco location does not have a gas station with cheaper gas. Sam's has a service where on certain days and times you park and give them your shopping list, wait in your car and they bring your orders to your car. I like them both.
