With inflation persisting for myriad reasons, a number of American consumers are looking for creative ways to trim their household budgets. Sam’s Club members might have an in when it comes to trimming the fat on their grocery budgets, with the warehouse club being known for low prices and quality foodstuffs.
So how might you stretch $15 to feed an entire family while shopping there? Here are a few creative ideas.
Rotisserie Chicken Dinner
- Total price: $11.78
The star of the show: Sam’s Club’s rotisserie chicken, costing just $4.98 for a fully cooked and seasoned chicken.
Add in a bagged Member’s Mark southwest chopped salad kit (costing $2.82) and a side of Member’s Mark dinner rolls ($3.98 for a whopping 24-count portion) to complete the plate.
Pork Chops and Caesar Salad
- Total price: $13.56
Fire up the grill: These pork chops are perfect for barbecue season. Member’s Mark boneless pork loin chops come in at an extremely affordable $2.98 per pound (or $9.60 on average for a tray) and are juicy while also being high in protein.
Team up your grilled chops with a Taylor Farms Caesar salad kit, complete with lettuce, dressing and croutons ($3.96 for a 16.9-ounce package).
Ham Sandwiches With Potato Chips
- Total price: $14.44
Who doesn’t enjoy a delicious ham sandwich?
A nice-sized package of Member’s Mark uncured honey ham (at 22 ounces) will ring up for $7.48, and can be arranged on a fresh, crusty half-baguette (a two-pack of full Member’s Mark baguettes, which cost $3.98) for a quick and easy lunch!
Pair this off with a bag of Member’s Mark wavy potato chips on the side for a salty treat ($2.98), and you’re enjoying an American classic.
Chicken Alfredo
- Total price: $14.33
If you’re tired after a long day at work — or simply feeling like taking a shortcut when it comes to lunch or dinner plans — Sam’s Club has you covered.
A tray of Member’s Mark chicken alfredo is priced at $3.98 per pound, at an average price of $14.33 for a portion just over 3 1/2 pounds.
This pasta dish is prepared fresh on-site daily, and it blends Italian fusilli with a creamy and delicious pasta sauce and sliced, grilled chicken breast. It’s ready in 40 to 50 minutes after it’s popped into the oven.
Cobb Salad With Grilled Chicken
- Total price: $10.88
Coming in at a little over 2 pounds, a tray of Member’s Mark Cobb salad — complete with grilled chicken and a sizable serving of avocado ranch dressing — costs about $5.28 per pound, or $10.88 in total.
If you want to toss in one of the aforementioned dinner rolls, you’re still well under budget, but maybe a little too full!
