Costco vs Sams Club

Ok, so I have a Costco membership which is due to expire next month. They just recently opened a Sams Club a few miles closer to us than the Costco. Which one is better of the two? Pros cons?

Any input is appreciated.. gracias 🙂

I should add that I use my costco for mostly the groceries (beef, chicken, frozen goods)
 
Stick with Costco, the benefits are much better. I wish we had an alternative to Sam's around here.
 
i have had a sams club card for about three years. Wouldnt mind a Costco though. From what i understand to get the best deal you should shop both.
 
just the opposite for me. i'm considering switching from sams to costco. im curious to know the pros and cons of cosco.
 
Here in Pennsylvania, we tried Sam's Club for awhile - but it wasn't really worth the membership.

When I lived in Oregon we went to Costco, I remember it being a much bigger warehouse with a better selection of bulk products. I'd stay with Costco.
 
I'm a member of both. I prefer CostCo, but I rarely go to Sam's. I only joined them because I bought something from their website a long time ago to resell on eBay. I think I've only went there like once or twice in person.
 
I don't know if you care, but I switched to Costco because Sam's is owned by Walmart and I don't like thier business practices.

Sam's had a better grocery selection, but that's pretty much it. Does Costco have any cheap bluejeans? I can get Member's Mark for like 12 bucks
 
I belong to both and actually worked for Costco a while back. They are both good for different things but overall I would have to say Costco is better.

Wierd fact about the 2 stores. The average Costco warehouse almost doubles the yearly sales of the average Sams Warehouse.
 
I don't find that big of a grocery difference in the Costco I go to.

I haven't shopped for clothes there.

I buy lots of alcohol there. I really like the wine selection.

I'm also going to by the Sunray by Rainbow playset there this summer It's very nice, I've read a lot of positive things about the playset.

Yes, they have their own brand, Kirkland Signature. Not sure how much they cost, but $12-15 sounds about right.
