4 Sam's Club Member's Mark Items With Price Cuts In October 2026

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links.

As we roll into fall, everything's getting cozy and spooky with seasonal fast food menu items and Halloween candy hitting the shelves. But even in this festive, event-filled half of the year, we need to take care of the basics. That means grocery runs, weeknight dinners, and hopefully making some savings here and there. After all, that pumpkin spice really adds up!

Sam's Club makes it easy to prioritize frugality with its day-to-day low prices, but limited-time price cuts can really sweeten the deal. In October 2026 the store has dropped prices on a variety of Member's Mark essentials as well as a few treats.

Throughout the month, the thriftiest of Sam's Club shoppers can enjoy filling their chest freezers with salmon fillets ready to survive another winter without compromising protein goals, and the rest of us can stock up on more mini peanut butter cups than could reasonably be needed for trick-or-treating. Wait, was I thinking about thrifty Sam's Club shoppers or hibernating bears?

These Member's Mark Sport Drinks are available both with and without sugar, and both are on sale this October. They're Gatorade-style electrolyte drinks designed to replace the necessary salts and minerals that are lost through intense exercise. Every 12-ounce bottle contains 160 milligrams of sodium and 50 milligrams of potassium, and the beverages are free from high-fructose corn syrup as well as artificial dyes, colors, and flavors. 

Sold in packs of 24, the drinks have great value at their usual price of $10.98, but they're an absolute steal for the current $9.98. That's a lot of electrolyte beverage though, so if you're gonna fill a whole pantry shelf with the drinks you'd better choose the right variety for you. Electrolytes are a better choice than water if you're at risk of becoming dehydrated, and if you're sweating a lot from running or hiking you might need sugar alongside your electrolytes to keep you going. If you're more worried about having something around for the morning after or are simply one of those people who forgets to drink water if they don't set an alarm, then choose whichever fits your macros and tastes best. The flavors vary between the sugar-free and standard sports drinks. Member's Mark Sports Drink Zero comes in mixed packages of Crystal Berry, Fruit Punch, and Cool Cherry; while the full sugar package offers Mixed Berry, Orange, and Fruit Punch. 

Member's Mark Farm-Raised Skin-On Atlantic Salmon Fillets are currently discounted $2 dollars per package at Sam's Club. While the fish is priced by weight, the average package sells for $33.91. As a portion size of salmon is around 6 ounces, one of these 3-pound fillets could serve as a dinner party centerpiece or be cut up and stored for later use. 

Salmon only keeps for a couple of days in the fridge, but it can be frozen for up to two months if properly wrapped. If you're lucky (and thrifty) enough to have a vacuum sealer, packing salmon with it will buy the fish an additional eight weeks in the freezer. Thawing fish can be easy and quick, and salmon is incredibly versatile and nutrient-packed. It's also really easy to cook if you know how. Steam it in the microwave like David Chang does for dinner or take the time to pan fry it skin-on for a beautifully moist fillet. 

Barring peanut allergies, who wouldn't grab these? The 30-ounce tub of Member's Mark Mini Peanut Butter Cups contains a mixture of dark and milk chocolate, so there's something for everyone. At this time of year, they're a great Halloween buy, whether for trick-or-treating or for your own spooky event. If you for some strange reason need more ideas for using up a tub or two of peanut butter cups as the nights draw in, you could put together off-brand Reese's s'mores while doing a bit of backyard camping. The more sophisticated readers of The Takeout can also pair them with their favorite bourbon. (Apparently, a rich, full-bodied high-rye bourbon brings out the sweetness of the chocolate and the toasty notes of the peanut butter.)

This huge tub of tiny peanut butter cups is usually priced at $13.98 but it's currently discounted to $11.92. That's $2.06 in savings, so if you don't rush to Sam's Club to buy them, then I will!

You can currently pick up a whopping 12-pack of Member's Mark Sandwich Croissants at Sam's Club for just $4.96, down from their usual price of $5.96. While sandwich croissant isn't a terribly specific flaky-pastry designation, these chunky crescents look like they would hold plenty of filling. That makes them perfect for croissant breakfast sandwiches or smoked salmon croissant sandwiches, but they would taste just as good with a simple, sweet filling. Of course, if you want to be authentic, you'll just pull them apart and eat them as is; that's the real French way to do it.

As fresh croissants like these tend to stale quickly, using all 12 before they start to get hard might be a challenge. Luckily, you can perk up croissants that are slightly past with a bit of moisture and a little time in the oven. Croissants also freeze well if they're wrapped tight (to avoid freezer burn). If they're thawed before being heated in the oven, frozen croissants can be as good as fresh, so why not fill a freezer drawer while this deal is available and enjoy warm croissant breakfasts every day of fall?
