Sam’s Club

We switched over from Costco’s after receiving a $ 20.00 credit through AMEX CC offer. It’s a bit more dreary than Costco and samples seems less frequent. They have a wide variety of prepackaged soda and juices.

I have been a member for Sam’s Club for several years and I come to this location very often (close to home). I like all the goods they stock and I especially like the Gas Station they have. Their gas station has better price than most of other places around here.
Now comes the bad part. People who work there does not seem to be too enthusiastic about their jobs. Employees do not seem to care too much about customer and customer requests. I got a lot of «I don’t know. Ask XXXXX?. It seems like only few people seem to know what they are doing or they don’t want to deal with customer.
So overall, good stuff but so so service.

This Sam’s Club is located in Hudson (on route 3A) and therefore, is a bit of a stretch from the main hub that is route 3. It’s not hard to get to, but if you’re not from the area, it can be cumbersome.
My Sam’s card is linked to my parents’ card. They’ve been members since, apparently 1994 per our membership card. That said, I’ve frequented a number of Sam’s Clubs over the years. I also appreciate the fact that this club offers gas. It’s not much cheaper than other gas stations in the area, but it’s convenient for a one-​stop shop.
For the most part, this warehouse is pretty well stocked. It rarely runs out of things I need, when I need it.
What sets this club apart from others are some of the bad-​apple-​employees. For whatever reason, I often encounter mean, angry employees who have no patience to help me find something (I lived in CT for over ten years and only just moved back to Merrimack Valley. The set ups for Sam’s Clubs varies from club to club.) or constantly make me feel (staring at H and me, following us, etc) like I’m going to steal something.
What. The. Hell. Hudson.

Terrible customer service at the tire specialists. Have been repeatedly denied service even though I follow their tire maintenance program, for the second time in a row I have had to replace my tires at half the average tire life. Do not get tires here.

I’ve been a member of this Sam’s club for the past 3 – 4 years and it’s nothing spectacular. They have a few things that Bjs have only slightly cheaper or don’t carry.
This store does accept credit cards but only if its Mastercard. No Visa :(
One day I went to sam’s club and my mom told me she wanted beer. So I grabbed a box and at the check out I promptly gave the lady my license. [It’s the under 21 license until xx-​xx-​xx] She looked at my ID and then looked at me and did the math. two minutes later. «your ID says up top your under 21 until [XX-​XX-​XX], so let me go double check with others.» I’m like okay. this lady is freaking stupid! It says I’m 21 if we already passed that date! She ended up making me wait 10mins just to get it approved by 3 other co-​workers just so I can buy a damn box of beer!

This is now the closest Sam’s Club to Boston after the Natick location closed several years ago. I still have a membership card linked to my parents so every once in a while I stop in to see what they have and how it compares to Costco.
One big plus is that they have gas, but the «members only» prices aren’t that much cheaper than what I pay around Waltham MA. Maybe there is a bigger differential to NH prices? A second plus is the selection of beer and wine. The selection is much better than Costco and they have some beer in 6 and 12 packs so you’re not limited to only 24 or 36 packs of everything.
Other than gas and booze I think Costco is a much better store with a better selection, comparable prices, and superior brands. Costco also offers monthly coupons to help you save even more money.

Ok, they finally refunded me the money for the 1 wrong item sent. But they still never called, they just sent me an email letting me know the refund was processed.

I’ve been a member of Sam’s Club for many years and I’ve enjoyed great savings on many items offered at this Club. Like Costco, membership cards must be shown at the entrance, unless you tell the staff you’re going to the Membership Desk or Pharmacy.
I shop at this Sam’s Club for just about everything they offer including candy (Altoids), junk food, groceries, produce, meats, bakery goods, cheese, seafood, pizza, deli trays, apparel, pharmacy, books, electronics, music, movies, printers, ink cartridges, office supplies, leather chairs, tables, tires, photos, drinks, rock salt, cat food, cat litter, and too many other items to name. A lot of items are offered in bulk sizes. The savings here are very good for many items. For example, I got a New Hampshire Atlas for only $ 14.94, list price of $ 24.95, 40 oz Whole Bean Starbucks Coffee for $ 18.26 (price goes up each visit), and digital prints for 16 cents each. At the Pharmacy, I’ve gotten a few $ 4 prescriptions with great service. The snack bar up the front is decent and offers Coke fountain drinks, Icees, pizza, hot dogs, pretzels, salads, and ice cream.
The lines on the weekends can get very long, so a staff member goes to each line and prescans the items to speed up the process. The Sam’s Club Gas station outside offers competitive gas prices to other nearby stations such as Haffner’s and Cumby’s.
On the weekends, I love making my rounds and enjoying many free food samples. Yummo!
