Looks like Sam's club and Costco gas/grocery are NOT going to be 3% according to terms:
"Basic Card Members will earn a reward of 3% cash back on the first $6,000 of eligible purchases across the Card Account in a calendar year (then 1%) at supermarkets located in the U.S. (superstores, convenience stores, warehouse clubs, and meal-kit delivery services are not considered supermarkets); 3% cash back on the first of $6,000 of U.S. online retail purchases across the Card Account (then 1%), 3% cash back on the first $6,000 of purchases of gasoline at gas stations located in the U.S across the Card Account (then 1%), (superstores, supermarkets and warehouse clubs that sell gasoline are not considered gas stations); and 1% on all other eligible purchases."

Thanks. I never knew this. Glad there are alternatives to use

I just noticed this long running "deal" on the FP and read the last few pages.
I had no idea about the restrictions that 3% back on gas was only at standalone gas stations. To make sure I'm clear, you're only talking about the Amex CC not giving 3% for gas at Sam's Club, Costco, or food stores?
Does the Sam's Club Mastercard still give you 3% on gas at Sam's Club, Costco, or food stores?

Sam's 3% works when using scan and go. Categorizes as online retail purchase.
Doesn't work for sams gas though
