I don’t know about you but I love Sam’s Club. I first joined when I was searching for a cake for my son’s 1st birthday party. I had heard great things about them and decided I had to take a look. I ended up getting this awesome Elmo cupcake spread that, at least for me made the day more memorable. Of course when I looked around I didn’t stop there. Once I realized all the bargains I could get I was hooked. On top of all the regular bargains you can receive You HAVE to try their roasted chicken. I believe the price is $4.99 and it beats an supermarket roasted chicken I have ever had. It’s perfect when you’ve been shopping for a while and you want to get home and get dinner on the table immediately.
Click N’ Pull Convenience
I haven’t been to Sam’s Club in a while simply because I’ve been put on bed rest for the remainder of my pregnancy, but with my Plus Membership I plan on doing the Click n’ Pull. That’s where you make a list at Sam’s club.com and they do the shopping for you. They have it ready by the door the next day if you placed your order before 5pm. I mean how easy is that?? For me it’s a lifesaver because at this point in time I can’t leave the house for long, especially with a two year old in tow and there are still tons of things I need before this baby arrives.

Sam’s Club Back To School Event
There’s an awesome event going on right now at Sam’s Club. From Aug. 11 through Aug. 31 you can head on over to Sam’s Club and earn more cash for your school. At the Sam’s Club Back-to-School event, you can get a head start on your collection and find 6 Box Tops on participating General Mills products. With your favorite Box Tops for Education brands at a great value, Sam’s Club is your one-stop destination for all your back-to-school supplies you need to send your kids off to school with confidence!
Disclosure: I received an upgrade to a Sam’s Club Plus Membership and gift card from Sam’s Club and General Mills through MyBlogSpark, along with a gift card for giveaway for sharing this information. It did not influence my opinion in any way as I was already a member of Sam’s Club and box tops.

We homeschool, so there is nothing extra we have to shop for other than ordering the new year’s school curriculum and replenishing a few supplies. So, this would just go towards our regular shopping trip.
I will stock up on Cereal.
