will come in handy when you need that 55 gallon drum of stewed tomatoes, or 120 pack of paper towels

you already have a pickup truck, right?

Or the hot dog/coke combo for $1.78. Can't beat it.

good point.

and he'll have a 5 gallon jar of relish and all those paper towels if he needs them.

It's worth it simply for the burgers and chicken you can get.

He's just mad because he's not tall enough to get free samples without an adult.

And all the FREE samples if you go at lunch time.

sam's club is awesome for people who eat a whale's worth a food a day, for large families who have to buy a ton of stuff at the grocery store every week, and small businesses (can buy office supplies in bulk locally), but for the average college student I don't really see how it's generally worth the membership unless they just like to have gigantic jars of mayo and other abnormally large sizes of food...

There is more to Sam's than just food: check out their clothes, books, CDS/DVDs, electronics, etc.

You can go in and get big things of chicken, burgers, etc (any type of meat) and freeze it and it's much cheaper than getting it at the grocery store.

my roommate and I freshmen year got a Sam's membership and bought all sodas and snacks and sold them on the hall...now we didn't make a ton of money or anything, but did make enough to have some extra money

Anybody ever need a set of tires? That can pay for a couple of years membership.

That is the best thing about Sam's and Costco!!!!

I'm probably going to sign up for it tomorrow.

i'm not signing up for it because i wouldn't use it enough. everyone i know has one so i can just go with them once every few months and get a gignormous bag of chicken

The cost of a membership for the entire year was more than worth it considering what I just saved on a TV. I haven't purchased much else from them this year, but yeah. Worth it.

Scorcho, agreed--one major purchase (TV, stereo, computer, tires, etc) makes the membership worth it.

not everyone has room in the freezer to store two years worth of meat lol.

Who said two years? A bag of chicken has at most 16 chicken breasts. Say a house/apartment of three guys go in together and get that. It's $6/person. That lasts 2-3 weeks easily.

it's called exaggeration...

or, "hyperbole"

I prefer the term "inflated numbers"

what about cooking the books, yes the pun was intended (in reference to the meat...)
