(NEXSTAR) – Sam’s Club shoppers will soon have extended access to their preferred pallets of toilet paper and sacks of oranges.
Starting Sunday, October 12, Sam’s Club is expanding its hours of operation on Sunday to 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Steven Zapata, the director of communications for Sam’s Club, confirmed in an email to Nexstar. The members-only retail stores were previously only open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays.
The new Sunday hours, however, include an “early shopping hour” for Plus members only, from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m. (Sam’s Club currently has two tiers of membership: Club, for $50 per year, and Plus, for $110.) All other shoppers will be welcomed to the store at 9 a.m. on Sundays.
Zapata also noted that curbside pickup will begin at 7 a.m. on Sundays, while Sam’s Club Cafés will remain open until 8 p.m. Holiday hours on Memorial Day, July Fourth, Labor Day and New Year’s Eve will also be extended until 8 p.m. this year, he said.
“We made this decision because of overwhelming feedback from our members — and right in time for the busy holiday season when convenience matters most,” said Zapata.
Sam’s Club’s new Sunday schedule will also go into effect a little over a month after Costco officially changed its operating hours: The Washington-based retailer’s stores now open on most days at 9 a.m. for Executive members only, before all other members are allowed to shop.
