A membership to a warehouse club like Sam’s comes in handy when you want to stock up on non-perishable or freezable food. And while it’s still July, many of us are doing our back-to-school shopping in preparation for the upcoming school year.
Sam’s Club’s current sales seem specifically designed to help you stock up on foods you can throw in lunchboxes or enjoy as a snack after school before extracurricular activities begin. You don’t have to be a kid or even have kids to stock up on these deals, though. Adults pack lunches and need snack breaks, too!
