5 Sam’s Club Products We’d Buy Over The Name Brand

Sam’s Club has really impressed us with their Member’s Mark items over the years. They’re certainly catching up to how highly we regard Costco’s Kirkland Signature brand. You’d be surprised at what you can find that has an edge over the name brand―which is where we come in. We’re here to tell you just what you should be checking out! From our expertise, these are five Sam’s Club products that you should be getting over the name brand.

Member’s Mark Original Beef Sticks

I’m sorry to Sam’s Clubs’ competitors, but you are getting creamed by this deal. Sam’s Club is selling beef sticks for half the price as the name brand which is a deal we absolutely cannot pass up. Grab these for all your protein-rich, meaty snacking needs. Eat them on the bus. Bring them to game day while you watch your third grader fumble around the soccer field. There’s really no bad time to be snacking on a beef stick.

Member’s Mark Dill Pickle Chips

Unfortunately for me, a staunch pickle hater but surprising dill pickle potato chips lover, this is the wrong kind of dill pickle chips. These are sliced pickles that admittedly are pretty dang good for what they are (nasty, icky pickles). They have a huge following among Sam’s Club shoppers so they have to make their way onto our list. Dietz & Watson won a spot in our dill pickle taste test, but they can’t hold a candle to Sam’s Club’s version.

Member’s Mark Sports Drink Variety Pack

Keeping your kids hydrated is a never-ending battle. On an average day, they don’t freaking drink any water. Member’s Mark sports drinks are just what you need to kickstart their bodies from the brink of dehydration. By grabbing this variety pack from Sam’s Club you’re saving almost a third of what it’d cost to get Gatorade. For that reason alone, it’s making the cut. The icing on the cake that this one gives you the best flavors (mixed berry, fruit punch, and orange).

Member’s Mark Mozzarella Sticks

It feels a little odd to say that mozzarella sticks have a name brand. Technically, they do. I mean all food does. It just doesn’t feel like there’s a name brand in the mozzarella stick space, ya know? Nonetheless we really like Sam’s Club’s mozzarella sticks so they would topple any competitor for their price alone. You get 72 sticks for $15. That’s bonkers. That’s a lot of power―one we are too weak to resist.

Member’s Mark Pumpkin Cheesecake

Move over Cheesecake Factory, there’s a new winner in town. Sam’s Club’s pumpkin cheesecake is remarkable. It’s the stuff of dreams. There’s a layer of pumpkin pie filling between the pumpkin cheesecake and the crust. It’s an incredible piece of work that I truly can’t believe we can buy at Sam’s Club. Who even came up with this genius creation? I wish I could thank them in person. For now, I’ll just honor their hard work by getting this over any other cheesecake in the grocery store.
