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.

No concrete proof, but it does not seem to be either a glitch or a promotion, plus they have been slowly dropping the cost of the shipping over the past few weeks. It also has been a couple of days like that and it didn't go back. I think that SAMs club may give darn about customer service after all (gasp!)

More data points...

I placed 18 orders of $50 SCGC around midnight last night. All showed as "exception." Received a call from Sams Club about 4:00 today verifying my shipping address and that I placed all the orders. currently all "processing" :)

My mother placed about 35 orders of $50 SCGC yesterday around noon. all showed as "exception." received a call from Sams club to verify she made all of those orders. now all showing as "processing."

BUT, her first 5 orders were made with 2 amex plus a SCGC, and those 5 orders were CANCELLED. Her other 30 orders, made with just 2 amex are all now processing.

I think I only heard of 1 person that had an order shipped with a GC used as part of the payment so far...

Any chance that sams club added the shipping charge to slow down the pace of orders so they can restock and get a handle on the situation?
And once they get control of the situation and restock for the party, they will take off the shipping charge...

So seems like I was right :)

Now with the free shipping I ordered a bunch of $50 scgc using two cc's, and a wm gc (ht dan ;)) for the remaining $10, all show cancelled. Got the congrats email though when placing those orders. Does this mean I wasted (cant reuse) those cc's?
