But to make the most of it, you’ll want to bring the right items with you. That’s where Sam’s Club can help. Owned and operated by Walmart and named after its founder Sam Walton, Sam’s Club has almost 600 warehouse/wholesale stores across the United States and Puerto Rico (ranking it second to Costco in popularity and sales).

Although Sam’s offers a free trial or guest membership, signing up for a Club ($50 per year) or Plus ($110 per year) membership will give you access for summer savings all year ’round, like this Altec Lansing Mix 2.0 Everythingproof Bluetooth Speaker on sale for $79.00 until June 2 (it floats in water!)
