Warehouse Club Membership Fees

Warehouse club memberships are great… most of the time. You can get perks, sure, but spending too much money on too many memberships, be it Amazon Prime, Sam’s Club, or Costco could cost you more than all the savings you’re trying to make, piled up.

First thing’s first, you don’t have to join in order to purchase, though you can expect a nonmember surcharge on some items. But it’s for you to decide if that surcharge is worth it more than the membership fee. In some cases, it is.

Secondly, make sure you’re really making the most out of your membership. For example, with Amazon, they offer a wide variety of perks, but most shoppers only take advantage of one or two, such as free shipping and Prime Video.
