Sam’s Club Eyeing Major Change At Minnesota + Wisconsin Stores
Sam's Club is reportedly switching things up - and this new change has some super fans of the business scratching their head.
The big business has made quite a few changes over the past few years. For example, late last year, they changed their free shipping requirements for their perks members.
Another major change? Last year, they also stopped checking receipts at the door, instead opting for new technology so customers can simply check out and leave without hassle.
Now, the store is reportedly rolling out another major change at their locations nationwide, including in Minnesota and Wisconsin.
No More Membership Cards
We should all be used to this by now! According to a report by The Street, the store is moving away from physical membership cards and instead, like so many other businesses, is trying to push members towards their app.

I personally like having a physical membership card over an app, even though I know having an app is the way of the world now. I have way too many apps on my phone!
One Other Change, Too!
That's not all. According to the same report, customers will also soon have to pay using their app as well. These changes are to help streamline the shopping experience and to stop people from sharing memberships.

While I may not love the change, I will get used to it. However, what about those that don't have a smart phone? The business hasn't started implementing the change yet but it sounds like they are going to soon.
