My MIL was given a Sam's club membership, and put me on as the second cardholder last year. I only went a handful of times, because it didn't seem worth it to feed my little family. I remember getting a big box of great mangoes a couple times, (made sorbet because we couldn't eat them all in time) and some other produce... but I wouldn't pay for a membership myself. I seem to remember paying with a credit card though.
I agree with Farrah. I don't frequent it, but they provide some services more cheaply than others. For example, we can buy the cheapest gasoline from Costco, so why not? And ophthalmic care is provided more cheaply.
