Gift cards
You can buy gift cards at samsclub.com to get the Amex credit. Samsclub.com sells many physical and egift cards at a discount. You can also buy Sam's Club gift cards at face value with free shipping. Sam's Club gift cards can be used either at Sam's Club in club, samsclub.com, at Walmart stores and walmart.com.
Gift of membership cards can be used as regular $45 gift cards. If you ship these to most states, sales tax is added to your order but your card will still only be worth $45. You will get your full value only if you can ship them to one of the few states where sales tax is not added.
For a completely free purchase, use the Sam's Club Android app to buy two $10 Sam's Club gift cards, or four of them if you are splitting the payment between two enrolled Amex cards. (There is a minimum quantity of 10 cards if you order these on the web site; the Android app does not have this minimum.)

Offer Valid Until 9/30/15.

1)Note that the charge has to post by that date. Be sure to order at least a few days before then to give time for the order to process.

2)Note that purchasing an item with an Amex and returning it in store, will result in a refund on your Amex card, not store credit or cash.

Right but didn't he purchase them within a week or two of calling?
Why don't you call them? What's the worst they will do, say no?

+1
Especially if you got a few orders in before the fees hit. It's a very obvious when your orders show: week 1: no fees weeks 2-4: fees weeks 5+: no fees, all for the same product.

I have a issue with my Macy's amex cards and 1 of 5 bluebird cards. There system declines my orders saying that the 4 digit security code is wrong. I was on the phone with amex cs they say its because the exp date is wrong. But I told them what I out in and they said that its correct.  After being on hold for a while. They came back saying that they have issues with Sam's club.

I had the same problem today (security code wrong) at wm.com
Try using the 3 digit code on back instead of the 4 digit one on front that worked for me on my serve cards

Just noticed i started getting an extra $10 for every $500 in purchases. Nice added benefit.

(Only received on select items and have to be a member i believe.)

Has anyone else contemplated getting Samsclub membership to avoid the surcharge without dealing with a CA address?

And does the AMEX offer apply to buying a membership?
yes and yes
And if you cancel within a year they refund your membership fees

No question about that, especially with their phone reps.. But depending on the amount it may be worth it...

Sometimes when refreshed it takes you back to the payment page with the card added and sometimes the card is not added

just do edit card instead of add card. That way you just have 2 at a time saved and it's the easiest way to switch to the next card

This situation will (or can) still happen when doing edit card.

I got all my SC GC, and all of them are not activated, with no $ on it. What a PITA to have to call SC. Free ain't always so easy.

The email with the subject line " Your Sam's Club Gift Card has Shipped" should have a link to activate the card
