4 Sam’s Club Items That Would Make Great Christmas Gifts for Retirees

Sam’s Club is the store that keeps on giving in so many ways. From their variety of products to choose from to their discounts and deals offered to members both online and in-store, Sam’s Club is truly a gift shopping haven.

And speaking of gifts, it is never too soon to start looking ahead at the holiday season to get some deals now on all the presents you’ll be handing out in December.

While you might have your kids and your partner covered, there’s another category of gift recipients that you might be struggling with in terms of what to get them: retirees.

Most of the time the retirees in your life have everything they need, but still want a little something special. That’s where Sam’s Club comes to the rescue!

Here are four Sam’s Club items that would make great Christmas gifts for retirees.

• Price: $19.98

Lots of retirees find themselves on a fixed budget, which can be tricky when it comes to essential purchases, like food and meals. Why not help out the retirees in your life by giving them everything they need to whip up a delicious meal at home with the Member’s Mark Bamboo Melamine 12-Piece Dinnerware Set, available at Sam’s Club for only $20? 

Not only can it be used for everyday cooking, but for special occasions, including your family’s big Christmas dinner. Completely food-safe and 100% BPA free, this set comes with four dinner plates, four salad plates and four cereal bowls.

Just help them out by cleaning up and doing a load of dishes with these washer-safe items.

• Price: $19.98

Having candles around the home for Christmas time can make it feel warm and cozy, yet also provide a flammable hazard for seniors and retirees. Sam’s Club has the answer with the seven piece set of Member’s Mark Flameless LED Wax Candles made from genuine paraffin wax.

While they mimic the feeling of real candlelight with a white-warm glow, there is no open flame to worry about. There is even a daily cycle to set, allowing these candles to be lit up for six hours and then light off for 18 hours in a 24-hour cycle.

Retirees, especially those with pets and grandkids, will feel safe and secure around these candles all winter long.

• Price: $34.98

Retirees might find that with all the ample time on their hands, there is more flexibility in their schedule to work out. But getting to the gym isn’t always possible, which is why it’s great to turn their house into an exercise anytime home.

Help them out by picking up a Marcy Neoprene Dumbbell Set at Sam’s Club for just $35. The color-coded set makes it easy for retirees to tell the difference between the pairs of 2-pound, 3-pound, and 5-pound weights that are designed for a variety of lifting options and fitness levels.

Come next year’s Christmas, you might even find that they are the ones who can lift this box out from under the tree without breaking a sweat.

• Price: $79.98

Retirees, though no longer going to work every day, still lead full lives with lots to do. However, as they age, they need to keep a closer eye on their physical well being, which includes not overexerting themselves moving items.

You can be their Santa Claus this year by giving them the Mac Sports Folding Wagon with table, available at Sam’s Club for roughly $80.

Not only does the wagon have the ability to carry up 150 pounds of cargo, but it also features all-terrain tires for a number of different surfaces, perfect for hauling beach chairs, groceries, or gardening, and yard work. And with the table in back, retirees have plenty of space to set up for a grandkids’ ball game or for an outdoor meal in the park.
