Book club preparations - Stop #4 Sam's is a great place to buy product in bulk as they have amazing prices. That's the good news. The downside of shopping at Sam's during peak hours is the store swarming with people, long lines and having to pack your purchased items in random boxes. I was searching for one item and one item only...a case of Topo Chico sparkling mineral water, which is bottled in Monterrey, Mexico. It is known for its crisp carbonation and distinctive mineral profile. Topo Chico appears unique to the South, I believe, a I have not seen it anywhere else. Topo Chico is fan favorite in Texas especially. As the story goes, the water's origin is tied to a legend involving the daughter of Emperor Moctezuma, who was said to have been totally revitalized after drinking from the spring at Cerro del Topo Chico. I grabbed by water, paid and out I went. read more

Sam's Club - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

Cheapest gas in town but god damn is that layout a nightmare. The one-way traffic renders half of the pumps useless, since 90% of cars seem to have the gas tank on the left. Naturally, that causes unnecessarily long waits, no matter what time you visit. It's frustrating, especially when you're already going out of your way to get here, but then the prices are hard to argue with... I've never successfully shopped in store. Employees are gruff at best and the hours are infuriating for someone who likes to get started early, but not pay $$$ for the privilege. It's unlikely I'll renew my membership after this year. read more

The good part is that this usually has the cheapest gas in the area tied with Costco down the block. Unfortunately it reportedly doesn't have the detergent in it that Costco has, so it's not quite as good there. The other drawbacks are many, including that you have to have a Sam's Club membership to buy gas, of course. And since Sam's Club is popular there is almost always a big line to get to one of the pumps even though there are lots of pumps. One factor contributing to the line that is a pet peeve is that they only allow you to drive through one direction in order to control traffic flow, I guess. But that means that half the pumps have extra long lines because more people have a gas tank on that side of their car. This results in me getting in the shorter line each time and having to stretch the hose over my trunk to insert into the opposite side. Absurd! Other drawbacks are that you can't use cash and can only pay at the pump, although they have an app that you can pay from if that's easier. The hours are also shorter than average because the store isn't open late. In short, it's a very no-frills gas experience, though I still use it when I have a membership. It's conveniently located and always has window cleaner squeegees at the pumps and is well covered from the rain and sun most of the time, but it's nothing special for a few cents savings. read more

Sam's Club - Fuel Center - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

I just love Sams for my everything I need. Find my stuff for my kitchen. I love the clothes it has. Good prices on the stuff I buy. My daughter also buys all her stuff at Sams. But sometimes she likes to order her stuff. read more

EBT Costco. The rotisserie chickens are rarely not overcooked, if there are any at all. Their food court pizza is incredible though.

Tow truck they contract with showed up 2 hours after requested. Ya-da,ya-da,ya-da!!!! The yadas were added because yelp replied that my review was too succinct. read more

Two attendants chatting, the pump we tried near where they were talking they were standing nearby in the way. We got them to move- seemed they were deep in comvo instead of helping us get fuel which is the purpose they are there- RIGHT? No! Get this: First, the card reader didn't work- ok- the guy tried to help- fine. Then we went to another pump which since it was pretty much empty we circled around and ended up facing the entrance to try and get fuel. The male attendant talked to me, all the while my boyfriend got fuel and told us the manager will turn off the pump if he sees anyone doing that. The only way around it is him staying there talking to me. He told me that on another occasion- there was an incident where a woman got mad for some reason- got an attorney and sued Sam's. Strange. Anyway, I felt intimidated and upset because by that time the place started filling up and then we would have had to wait in line again to get fuel. Doesn't the manager take that into account???? No!!! Meanwhile, the woman whose thought left- comes back and starts chatting with my boyfriend like she's trying to pick him up, the male attendant get mad at her tells her to leave- she refuses, they start FIGHTING! Angry words, nothing physical but GEEZ!!! Horrible experience- would give them no stars if I could. I hate Sam's! My boyfriend has a card, I used to and quit because of the bad prices. See prior posts. How I hate coming to Sam's! Yet another awful experience!!! read more

Now, this is by far the worst Sam's Club I've been to. They have a very low inventory on most things I like to buy. The layout is confusing and allows shoppers to be clustered together in lumps which is hard to navigate. I never care for the lack of healthy goods in the frozen section. They have a lot of meats, cheeses, and processed this and that junk, but there's hardly anything vegetarian or vegan friendly. I picked up some ketchup when we were about to leave, the lady, Regina scanned the ketchup to tell us that it was supposed to be in a three pack, so why was it on the shelf without its pack? That's the job of merchandisers at Sam's Club, not the customer to go locate. (I worked at Sam's Club in college). So our options were to go find the three-pack or refund. We just refunded because this Sam's Club ain't got their stuff together (pun intended). Also, when we were checking out, we scanned all our items in the self-checkout. My boyfriend was getting ready to pay and the machine wouldn't take his card because though it says that you can just swipe your card, it kept glitching like it wasn't accepting the swipe option. So we called over the "green shirt" associate who is the supervisor and she got on her walkie-talkie to talk to someone else about something else and completely ignored us. Then, when she got done, she turns to say, "well I don't know why it is not working and it isn't my problem and maybe you can go to another self-checkout register. I don't know what to tell you guys." That's how I remember the management at Sam's Club, unhelpful at best! read more

This is a limited review: I do not walk into Sam's Club anymore. I did years ago and the madhouse inside ran me out. I now do pick up outside. Pick up is very smooth, even though at times the waiting period for my goods' arrival seems excessive. I don't use Sam's for a lot of items, because like a lot of other reviewers, they have a lot of junk food, but they do have many things that suit my needs, so I patronize them. read more

Literally just now 3/25/25 my elderly mother went to the electronics section and found her Epson printer she wanted on sale. She asked the female associate if they had more and the associate found 6 more in the back in stock. They just hadn't brought more up front. The lady told my mom she could wait because the printers are all still there..... Well there were none on the show room floor they were in the back. My mom says well the sale ends on3/30 and I need it. Then I tell my mom to ask another associate because this one obviously didn't want to get help or even try. She asked a male associate, who straight up lies to her and says there are no more and tells her she can go to another Sams because they are priced the same. My mom tells him what the associate prior said they had some in the back but hadn't brought them to the floor and she was trying to have my mom wait days...literally my mom tells them the sale ends 3/30/25. Management really should have a talk with their associates just standing around not doing anything... Elderly people should not be treated like this and sent on goose chases when it your job to be honest and help!!!! Very disappointed and ending my membership read more

This membership $$ club store's service at the tire shop is ridiculous. The management team at this location is of poor quality in service , Jeremy the club store manager should be ashamed of him self, having this type of poor management customer service culture. His employees in the tire shop have their own policies and procedures, of Walmart quality! I'll rate this location a straight "F" for poor quality of service to the customer! read more

I like it here. There's always that Sam's vs Costco debate but personally I get a lot of my needs met here from photos to glasses to Rx to bulk food and church bulk needs. Now that we got onto the better membership plan we are actually making $ cashing back and waiving the annual fee. Yes the place may look drab and it's dimmer so more depressing to shop here vs Costco but still it's roomier, people are friendlier and there's no one pushing carts into you. Samples are during lunch or snack times and they give alot and there isn't crazy shoving lines like Costco. Overall prices are good esp when there are deals. Funny how some stuff they have here Costco doesn't so we still hit both but meats I've found better deals here. I like their pizza here too. Thinner and maybe greasier but it's good. Their chicken salad croissant sandwich is good. They give alot. Their ice cream is bigger and cheaper here too and their hot dogs are huge. This Sam's is our go to. Very convenient location too. Been going here for decades and Love seeing same friendly faces still working here. Kerp it up Sam's! read more

Sam's was never my favorite out of the wholesale warehouse stores, but it's been stepping it's game up lately. I have a membership to both Costco and Sam's because well why not. The parking lot is so much better than some other wholesale warehouse stores, and the prices are comparable, so that is a plus in my book. There are items here that you can't find in other whole sale clubs, like powered sugar and brown sugar. There is a different selection in both places so I think that Sam's has a lot of pluses. It's good for business owners since they have a lot of supplies, like utensils plastic and real. They have a large selection of towels that you can buy separately and not in a package. They have a great selection of snacks. The cakes here are pretty awesome though and now they will make to order tiered cakes! The only downside to Sam's for me is the food court, the food is not very good but they do have Icees if you want some sugar syrup and it's super cheap. The other food isn't so good in my opinion, but it is cheap so if that's what you are going for then there you go. The other wholesale club has a better food court hands down. The gas prices are awesome and the lines for gas is pretty small so you can get in and out fairly quickly most of the time. The best part is that they accept more than just one type of credit card, they accept Master, Amex, and Discover. You can of course use your Visa Debit card too. I definitely will keep my membership here and continue going here. read more

I have memberships at both Sam's and Costco, because both have their merits. Costco has a lot of higher end products and Sam's has a lot more junk food. Here's what hurts this Sam's club. First, the temperature inside this location was warm -- like no air moving at all. Second, the selection is heavily geared toward business customers, especially food service and restaurants. The selection of foods and paper products seem more like Restaurant Depot than a store geared to the general public. Finally, this Sam's makes the exit process painful. The gentleman checking receipts as you leave is slow and apparently has to scan individual items before you can leave. It's doubtful I'll renew my membership, at least based on this location. read more

Haven't been in this store in forever, but have used them a couple of times in the past 6 months for curbside. It's not my nearest Sam's Club, but they sometimes have items my store is either out-of-stock on or doesn't carry. I've been consistently impressed with the speed and accuracy of their curbside service. My last pickup was when they opened on Sunday at 10a, and I was driving away by 10:05. Can't beat that. read more

This Sam's Club location is wonderful !!!! The floral section is fabulous the prices are great & they make arrangements that are so very beautiful !!! We were recently in the store & spoke with the gentleman in the floral section & told him how beautiful the arrangements were. He was very nice & thanked us for our comments & readily pointed out what had been used in the arrangement. We just love shopping here !!!! read more

I like to come to this location because it convenient and closest location to me. Well, the past couple of times I had to go visit the Service Center, in which I had to interact with the same lady, which is not friendly nor helpful. She looks like she's always mad and just wants you to go away. I kept telling her It scanned an item twice in which she DID Not believe me when she sees it with her own eyes. The receipt writing is pretty small and I didn't have my glasses, but I can see it was scanned twice. read more

Cake decorating is AWFUL. The message looks like a 5th grader wrote it. I took it back to be re-written. I was polite about it: I said I don't mean to offend anyone but the folks planning the party are not happy with the writing, could you please make it neater and a little less squished together? The girl gave me so much attitude, glaring at me, "well, everyone has different handwriting!" If Sam's is going to offer cake decorating, they should hire a professional. It should look presentable. And if the decorator can't make it look decent, they should at least be nice to their customers! YES, everyone has different handwriting- my own is terrible- but I am not a cake decorator. You wouldn't want me to decorate your cake. Shame on Sam's for not hiring correctly. read more

My experience today at the Panera Bread establishment at 9901 N Capital of Texas Hwy, Austin,TX was something that I must share with the world. My wife and I have NEVER felt so special, appreciated or treated so nicely at any Panera anywhere in the country (and we've been to many as we are Pro-Drivers). A special thank to the Asst Manager Ryan, the person who has set the "gold standard" for his staff to follow at this Panera Bread location. The great service we experienced at the hand of Ryan should be emulated by all the Panera Bread Stores around the country. We received a warm, friendly welcome, top notch table service by this true professional and food prepared "right" the first time! He really "blew us away", talk'in bout "A" game-Ryan was/is on it!! So Panera Corporate if there was anyone you were considering promoting to manager of one of your stores, this customer recommends Ryan hands down--Thank You Ryan for making our day special with your great service. My promise to you is fulfilled. read more

This used to be a store enjoyed going to. I've had a membership for two decades. But for about the last two years pushy salesman have been allowed to hassle people at the entrance and the exit of the store. Are usually Spectrum cable, home improvement services, etc. today one of the Spectrum salespeople greeted me by saying, "How are you doing boss?!" To me the term "boss" is a condescending micro aggressive term along the likes of "chief" and "sport". I immediately corrected the salesman and told him, "I don't respond to boss." He changed his line to, "How are you doing today sir?" I said, "Better!" and kept on walking. The salesman have no business in the store that people pay monthly dues to be in. I loathe the pushy salesman that Sam's Club has allowed to proliferate the store at the entrance and the exit. I may be switching to Costco to avoid future nuisances. read more

Very good sams, quality merchandise in bulk, gas prices are good and the food at the end is really yummy

Michael at the gas station deserves a raise! So helpful and efficient. Had issues with the app not working at the gas pump and he didn't hesitate to use his employee card and get me moving through the line. Please give this guy some recognition. read more

This Sam's club sucks in the cafe literally 5 times that we have stopped here they never have any one that can do the cafe.

Linda in the flower shop is the heartbeat of this store. There is no one I've ever met in retail that goes the extra mile like her. I will forever shop at this Sams Club as long as she's working Thanks Linda. read more

This is your typical Sam's club with the usual products in the store. A strange thing we found was Krispy Cream donuts on sale in the bakery department. Do you know what is better than a dozen Krispy Cream donuts? A big giant box with about two dozen Krispy Cream donuts!!! Score! Enjoy folks. read more

This location is pretty much the same as all the other Sam's clubs except for the fact that the employees kind of do not seem to know what they are doing. Not only did the cashier not make sense about why he had to check my ID when my wife was buying alcohol but on top of that, they just went ahead and charged us for it AFTER we said that we don't want it anymore. Just FYI , don't ever try to get their yogurt because they never have it! We already went three times and they have never had it, ever! Maybe it's time to try Costco out? hehe read more

Sam's Club - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

Overall I can say this is a good store, but I would avoid the tire department. To be concise, it is extremely difficult to speak with them and get any sort of solid information, even simple stuff. The only other general complaint I have is they like to offer the plain food varieties in bulk which I typically don't like. But everything else is spot on. Great prices and brands on most stuff and really cool non-grocery products that rotate out so there's always new stuff coming and going. This is beyond the review itself, but I just want to note that as with all bulk item warehouse stores there will always be products to stay away from. Luckily bad deals are fewer and farther between than years past, but it really pays to shop around and figure out what is worth buying and what is not. Depending on your needs you may be able to save a LOT of money NOT buying specific items from warehouse stores. Just food for thought. read more

REVIEW OF BAKERY Check out their bakery- quick, great cakes. They made a personalized cake with my son's photo in less than 24 hours...The rest of the store may not be anything surprising, but the bakery wowed me. Super nice, too.

Sam's Club - Photo Birthday Cake from Sam's Bakery - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

I never usually write bad reviews especially on stores but I felt this was needed! this sams club is terrible. Due to the COVID-19 businesses can only have a certain amount of people in store, understandable. The man at the door literally harassed me when he asked for my sams card and got upset because it had a card sister on it (it not against sams policy to have that). He continued to say "why would you even do that?" and "that so dumb. why" ITS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. It's a picture of my niece and nephews. All you need is the barcode on the back of my card to verify my membership sir. He was so rude. I get people are stressed due to covid-19 but I do instacart and I deal with people everyday, don't take it out on others. I'll stick to the sams club on Sundance where the employees aren't complete dickheads. read more

SAM's Club, SAM's Club, SAM's Club (in Round Rock)!!!!! I had no choice but, to go to the SAM's Club in Round Rock because the SAM's in my area had ran out and discontinued the Patio heaters I wanted. Before, I even went all the way to Round Rock I called and asked that the heaters be sat-out for me so, that I wouldn't have to wait because, my plan was to just walk-in purchase the items and leave! One of the reason's I'm giving this review a 2 is because I felt like the customer service agent on the phone was rushing me off and honestly, I didn't think the heaters would be pulled like she said. However, they were and so, the story goes on! Well, like I mentioned earlier,,,,,when I got there the heaters were waiting there for me just as they promised over the phone but, believe it or not....they only had 2 (TWO) cashiers working and the lines were OUT OF CONTROL long. It seemed like everyone in the lines that were "locals" were complaining about the waiting time and seemed to be getting very frustrated about the situation! After waiting for about 10 minutes I decided to do the self-check out and was out of there a lot faster than all the other people. I'm going to think positive about this store and say maybe they didn't have enough cashiers because of the holidays or maybe they were all at lunch and just maybe, the lady that I spoke to over the phone was just rushed because of all the customers they had in the store. I would only go again if I absolutely, necessarily had too! :) read more

Sam's Club - 38 mins and the dude just never returned! - Wholesale Stores Near Me - Austin, Texas

As a 20+year veteran of customer service, I am an above-average judge of quality in that competitive field. When I encounter an off-the-charts, above-and-beyond level of service, I take it upon myself to ensure that the management is made aware. I have been a member of Sam's Club, (off and on) since the first warehouse opened on North Lamar in Austin, Texas in 1986. Since then, I have come to depend on Sam's to deliver a quality product at a reasonable price. On this rather rainy and challenging day, I encountered the best level of service I've ever seen at a Sam's club here in Austin or anywhere else. Sabrina Juarez' main function in this warehouse is promoting home improvement services for Power Home Remodeling. Sabrina was gracious enough to assist my friend and me in choosing just the right poinsettia for my friend's family gathering. Sabrina did not have to assist us, she could have been promoting handyman services. She took it upon herself to be sure we had the right poinsettia to add the family touch. Both Sam's and Power Home Remodeling are indeed fortunate to have such a diligent and courteous worker in their employ. Sabrina's exemplary level of service will bring me back to this warehouse in short order. Please commend Sabrina with the highest accolades that corporate protocols allow. read more

Shop on Mondays and you'll speed through the check-out. The checkers will even remember you. It is $40 to join, which I did a couple of weeks ago. I stumbled upon the Sam's Club, and even though I'm a single gal, I decided to join. I saved at least this much due to the purchase of a vacuum cleaner, coffee maker, toaster over, and stereo speakers. All of these items are high quality brands and were more expensive elsewhere. It's a must stop for us new to Austin and need stock up on supplies. Some things that are nice for people without 20 mouths to feed each day include: a nice wine selection, great stop for gifts (I know where I'm going Christmas shopping), coffee, books and magazines, basic clothes (yoga wear, pjs, socks, etc), anything freezable, cheap flowers, and school supplies. I just enjoy wandering around and people watching. Every once in a while you get a good bargain on a surprising item you never knew they carried. I think I have the Sams Club gene-- inherited from my father (who shops at the Sams Club in his are at least 3 times a week). read more

Best place to buy avocados. I think the avocado is the best fruit on the planet. No doubt. It has fat, calories, creamy smooth texture, and more potassium than a banana and more vitamin C than an orange. Why it is not a "superfruit," I dont' know. Didn't the aztecs revere the avocado? Despite all that, I refuse to buy avocados in the store b/c they don't know how to ripen them correctly and they are always bruised and too expensive...whew that was a runon. The avocados here are either just right or not ripe at all, but I don't mind because I can ripen them myself at home. Also, the meat here is fabulous. Lamb, brisket, whole porkloin...the list goes on. Best sirloin steaks too. read more

One of the cheapest gas stations in all of Austin. Came here to fill up before driving to Dallas.

I'm not trying to brag... but I'm totally a member of Sam's Club. Not only that, I have a SPECIAL membership that allows me shop before the rest of you plebeians. I can buy in bulk whatever my heart desires, before you can, but I can't use my credit card because they don't allow that. I can buy discounted gas and 20 rolls of toilet paper for a dollar. You can't. I'm special. For all my boasting, you can tell how much I utilize my membership, right? NEVER. I COME FOR THE PIZZA. I know it's probably made of paper. I know Bufalina would scoff at the ingredients I consume here. I don't care. For $1.50, I- with my super special membership that is actually not required to order from their food court- can get the most delicious, cheesy, flavorful pizza in a 10 mile radius (this could be wrong.. I'm playing a lot with hyperbole here). I just LOVE Sam's Club's pizza! It's amazing, cheap, delicious, better than any chain and frequently more befitting my mood than a less than stellar nearby experience such as Mangia.I adore it, I cherish it, and it falls in that middle ground between chain and actual good restaurant pizza. But for $1.50 for a giant slice and a drink? I think appreciation needs to be given. People don't understand you, Sam's Club pizza. I do. read more
