From the Sam’s Club Refund Policy: "We will refund any Member's membership, in full, at any time, if they are NOT satisfied for any reason."

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.

I used 2 AMEX to guy a $45 gift of membership and another 2 AMEX to buy $50 SC gift card. Today in the mail, I got 2 gifts of membership even though the receipt of one of them says $50 gift card. Basically, I got shortchanged $5. Any thoughts on whether or not it's worth contacting SC about this? If it's going to involve a return
of the purchase, I'm not interested. If they're just going to credit me $5, I'll do it.
Check the card balance. Who knows, maybe they loaded $50 onto the wrong piece of plastic.

If you live near a club, they should be able to adjust the $5 for you.

I live kind of near one, but not near enough for just $5.

Dang, didn't realize that. Haven't followed the thread.
So $20 gift cards from Walmart.com will suffice?

If you don't have membership, you'll pay an extra 10%. Unless you live in CA.
Workflowy. You won't know what you're missing until you try it.

No need. Get a trial membership with an address in CA and buy 2 x $10 gift cards with the android app.

Update-- one of the membership gift cards has $45, the other isn't activated. Interestingly, the one that isn't activated has card number that matches the corresponding invoice for $45 gift of membership so I can take it to the store to fix. The card with $45 does NOT match the invoice for $50 gift card yet has funds loaded. I don't know how this happened.
