Let’s list some ubiquitous things moms love: stretchy pants, coffee, sleeping babies, online shopping. Hard to argue with these, right? And what do they all have in common? They either save moms time or they make mom’s life easier, and we’re alllllll about that.

I have endless childhood memories of going to Sam’s Club to stock up on cases of fruit snacks and gatorade. And when we had the opportunity to partner with Sam’s Club, I thought to myself “oh my gosh yessss buying in bulk!” But I’ve learned, there is so. much. more. Sam’s Club has expanded and modernized since I was a kid. They have listened to the moms of the world, and the services, products, and customer service they provide is beyond compare. At Sam’s Club, you’ll be left with a bit more pocket change, your time, and (most importantly) your sanity–leaving you with more energy to snuggle those little sleepy babies.

1. Sam’s Club Saves You Money

We all know that buying in bulk saves money in the long run (cases on cases on cases of diapers!), but being a Sam’s Club member saves you money in other ways, too! With a $100/ year Plus membership, you’ll earn $10 back for every $500 spent on qualifying purchases–up to $500 a year! At the end of the year you can choose to have that sent to you in a check or apply it to future purchases at Sam’s. A Plus membership also grants you early access to Sam’s Club locations AND free shipping on most of your online orders! Wohoooo!

2. Premium Brands Available

On our recent jaunt through our local Club, we couldn’t help but notice all of the amazing premium brands available at Sam’s Club. We’re talking Pamper’s Pure, Owlet, Nikon, Carter’s, Black Forrest, Duracell, Organic Valley, Jennie-O, Starbucks Coffee, Pyrex and so many more. You don’t have to sacrifice your favorite cup of joe, indulgent snack, or baby brand by shopping at Sam’s Club. They also have an amazing selection of organic and natural brands.

3. Save Time with Scan and Go

Y’all, hold the phone for this one. Scan and Go is a system integrated with the Sam’s Club app. All you have to do is log into your account and use the Scan and Go feature to scan products as you put them into your cart. Use the app to easily add or subtract the quantity, or delete an item when you change your mind. Ready to check out? Order your basket through the app and it will pull up a barcode upon purchase, walk yourself and your screaming toddler to the exit, and a greeter will Scan the barcode and you’re good to Go! No waiting in long lines or unloading your basket at checkout.

We were so incredibly impressed with this system; it’s so seamless. The barcodes scan at any weird angle and the app is intuitive to use. Moms, this is the future of shopping!
