I agree, it's better for large families, but you can save on certain items. They have good deals on electronics and other large purchases. We go about once a month and stock up on non perishables such as paper towels and cleaning products. We also buy almost a month's worth of meat and stock the freezer. For things that we need to buy fresh we make a run to Publix or Winn Dixie. But over the course of a year, we find that we save well over the $100 annual fee. We also get gas there which is usually only a few cents cheaper than other local stations, but it's not out of the way so every little bit helps.

What $100 Fee.???.I only pay $40 per year!

Also when you get tires from them--you get free rotation & balancing for life

I believe there are different levels of membership. We have the basic level, which is the same price as yours. Boogie must be talking about Sam's Plus
