6 Sam’s Club Groceries Under $20 That’ll Make Your Meals Feel More Luxe
Sam’s Club may have just hiked its membership prices by $10 (as reported by CNBC), but fans of the warehouse club aren’t letting that dampen their spirits, apparently — the Walmart-owned business saw U.S. sales grow by 3.1% last fiscal year as traffic improved both online and at its brick-and-mortar locations.

A lot of the appeal for Sam’s Club loyalists goes beyond simple budgetary concerns and into the realm of the whole “treasure hunt” experience. What will you find while stalking the aisles for something to spice up your mealtime staples?
Luckily, here are a number of affordable and versatile options that can help you elevate your dishes without breaking the bank.
Mike’s Hot Honey Sauce
Price: $14.98
One of the emerging foodie trends over the past few years, hot honey goes on (or in) almost everything — pizza, sandwiches, omelets, ribs, salmon or even your favorite cocktail.
Mike’s hot honey sees honey infused with chili peppers to provide the perfect kick when required. If you’re a little scared of sweet heat, no worries. A dollop of sauce on the side is the perfect dipping opportunity to test the waters (and your ability to handle spice)!
BelGioso Shaved Cheese Blend
Price: $9.86
A blend of Asiago, Parmesan and Romano cheeses in a convenient resealable package, this sizable bag of BelGioso shaved cheese blend is crafted in Wisconsin (so you know it’s good)!
The ingredient list should impress as well, being just three items long: cultured milk, salt and enzymes. From lasagna to Caesar salad – or topping a pan of roasted potatoes or steamed veggies — it’s always good to have some on hand in the pantry.
Kinder’s Buttery Steakhouse Seasoning
Price: $5.48
Kinder’s has staked out a claim for being a top name in the seasoning space, and for good reason. Customers rave about this product, calling it “versatile,” “flavorful” and “very tasty on a variety of foods.”
Beyond the obvious choices of chicken, pork and beef mains, you might think about adding this buttery steakhouse seasoning to grilled vegetables (particularly peppers, onions, broccoli, asparagus and mushrooms for a bit of umami) – and even to a bowl of freshly popped popcorn.

Member’s Mark Premium Chunk Chicken Breast
Price: $12.56
Too tired from a day working the job plus the side hustle to whip up a batch of chicken breast from the fridge or freezer? No problem.
These six cans of chicken breast from Sam's Club are 98% fat-free, very high in protein (perhaps an even bigger food trend than the aforementioned hot honey), and a staple ingredient in dishes from quesadillas to chicken salad sandwiches or chicken Alfredo. Cut down on the prep and cook time while saving the flavor!
French’s Original Crispy Fried Onions
Price: $7.98 (originally $8.98)
Borrow some inspiration from your favorite sit-down restaurant by stocking these flavorful and fun crispy fried onions in your cupboards. Shoppers confessed to eating these fried treats straight from the bag, calling them “addictive” and an item that’s truly “the best.”
Used whole in holiday green bean casseroles (or most other casseroles for that matter), placed artfully atop a juicy burger, added to a warm bowl of hearty soup or stew, tossed into a fresh garden salad or crushed beneath a rolling pin and added to a breading mixture, there’s a use case here for nearly any appetite.
Einstein Bros. Bagels Everything Bagel Seasoning
Price: $3.98
Living up to the name, this Einstein Bros. everything bagel seasoning can be put to work in the kitchen no matter what the menu calls for.
Think of sprinkling (or shaking the container vigorously if that’s more your thing) over fried eggs, French fries, avocado toast, garlic bread, risotto, grilled salmon, macaroni and cheese, hot or cold dips and even buttered corn on the cob. Doesn’t that sound divine?
Brand fans tend to think so, according to the comments section. “Adds zing to every little thing,” added one would-be poet, while a second called it their “go-to spice.”
